View of Prague from a monastery

Prague is one of the trendiest places to be in Europe. It’s modern and historic and it’s got charm and charisma. It’s beautiful and bold and filled with some of the ‘blingest’ hotels in Europe. Here’s where you want to be:

 Comfortable and classy

The Augustine- Central Bohemia, Prague

The Augustine offers colorful bohemian décor, in its namesake of Central Bohemia. It offers an elegant and peaceful setting, a welcome retreat from the busy hustle and bustle of the city. It’s languid and luxurious, with lazy breakfasts on offer till 14h00 daily.

It’s an art lover’s dream featuring innovative and artistic details and a unique architecture that gives you a taste of the city’s history and cultural foundations.

And culture is first on the menu at the Augustine because it’s a stone’s throw away from Prague Castle, the Wallenstein Garden and the famous Charles Bridge.

It offers a novel point of view for suite-dwellers: those are all housed in the old monastery tower, just for effect. Sinful cuisine is on offer at The Monastery Restaurant and you can also treat yourself to the divine talents of a private chef while you’re there. It’s not all history and heritage though: the rooms offer iPod docks and flat screen TVs for posterity.

 If those walls could talk

Four Seasons Prague Hotel

If you’re after something more refined and classic then a stay at the Four Seasons Prague Hotel will fulfill your most lavish tastes. It’s in the middle of Prague’s Old Town and the center of attention too.

It’s a complete architectural showcase which has a 500-year history inside its majestic walls. It’s comprised of three historic buildings and offers an impressive selection of 161 rooms to lay your head down in. Each of the buildings is themed according to the period it comes from. Take your pick from Classical, Renaissance or Baroque but be assured that it’s class all the way.
