Why we recommend it
Hotel Paris Prague was built in 1904 and stands on U Obecního domu, the short street behind the Municipal House at the edge of the Old Town. The building combines Neo-Gothic and Art Nouveau features and is a protected historical monument within the UNESCO-listed historic centre of Prague. The hotel has been owned by the Brandejs family for three generations, and that continuity gives it a personal character that is rare among the city's five-star hotels.
There are 86 rooms and suites, decorated in a classic style that respects the building's history. The public spaces echo the Art Nouveau of the Municipal House next door, and the location makes it easy to step out for an evening concert in Smetana Hall or a stroll along the Royal Route.
Tony's Café & Bar is the hotel's social heart, with an atmosphere and cocktail list inspired by the 1930s. It works for a coffee in the afternoon or a cocktail in the evening. The hotel also hosts seasonal dinners and events, such as Christmas dinners, which are booked through its food and beverage office. The service is attentive and personal, reflecting the family ownership. The hotel's position on a short side street means it is quieter at night than hotels on the main squares, even though it is only a few steps from one of the busiest parts of the Old Town. It is a good choice for a winter trip, when the Christmas markets on Old Town Square are a short walk away.
The hotel suits couples, travellers interested in architecture and history and anyone who wants a central base with old-world character. It is a little more modest in price than the international luxury brands on the river, which makes it a good choice for a special trip that does not stretch to the top of the market.
The Municipal House and the Powder Gate are directly next door, Old Town Square is about seven minutes away on foot along Celetná Street, and Wenceslas Square is also within easy walking distance. The nearest metro station is Náměstí Republiky on line B, about two minutes away, and the Masarykovo railway station and Florenc bus station are close for onward travel. Book directly with the hotel by phone or through its website.
