1. Residence Agnes
Address: 19, Haštalská 943, 110 00 Praha
Best for: Location, location, location
The exterior of this Prague hotel instantly stands out due to the pretty rose-pink paintwork. It’s housed in an elegant townhouse in one of the oldest parts of the city.
Residence Agnes offers four star, boutique-style accommodation, and the convenient location is a big plus.
In each room, classic country charm meets contemporary style, with original stonework and dramatic light fittings adding drama throughout the interior.
Free parking at Residence Agnes is also a real perk for anyone with a hire car.
The property also offers a 24-hour reception, an airport transfer service, and a superb spread each morning at breakfast.
2. Hotel Pod Vezi
Address: Mostecká 58/2, 118 00 Malá Strana
Best for: Exceptional service
Imagine staying right by the iconic Charles Bridge in Prague, while enjoying boutique accommodation at affordable rates.
You can do just that when booking a room at Hotel Pod Vezi, which occupies a couple of historic buildings in the ancient heart of the city.
It’s an enviable location and a lovely property, but what makes a stay here truly special is the staff.
The service is outstanding, and I find this really makes all the difference, whether you want directions or a helping hand.
Room service, a bar and restaurant, and limited parking can also be found on site.
3. Golden Well Hotel
Address: U Zlaté studně 166/4, 118 01 Malá Strana
Best for: Dinner with a view
The Golden Well Hotel in Prague offers smart accommodation, slick service, and sweeping city views from a trio of terraces.
Expect contemporary decor with a nod to the bohemian, and a location among the cobbled streets just below Prague Castle.
With only 19 rooms, the Golden Well has an intimate feel, and service is personal without being intrusive.
Here you can settle down to a DVD from the library or play on the iPad after soaking in a bubble bath, all while gazing out over the city rooftops.
You can also tuck into a delicious dinner with a view at the top-floor restaurant, before cosying up in the snug bar.
4. BoHo Hotel
Address: Senovážná 1254/4, 110 00 Nové Město
Best for: Modern, monochrome decor
A member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, BoHo Hotel is only around five minutes on foot from the landmark Old Town and Wenceslas Squares.
And if you prefer modern, monochrome style offset by subtle shades of duck egg blue and soft cream, you’ll also adore the decor here.
The property is squeaky clean and well maintained throughout, and offers a good range of rooms and suites including triples and family rooms.
If you have a hire car, you can also book accommodation with inclusive parking. BoHo Hotel also boasts a gym, a spa area, and a bar, and there’s a great spread for breakfast each day.
5. MOSAIC HOUSE Design Hotel
Address: Odborů 278/4, 120 00 Nové Město
Best for: Art and design
Mosaic House occupies a listed, minimalist building in central Prague. The mosaics in question date from the property’s trade union era, and add to the arty vibe of the hotel.
Mosaic House is a relaxing place to stay, close to the Vltava River, and has a wellness centre on site.
The property was completely overhauled in 2020, and offers a range of rooms from standard doubles to swish penthouses.
No expense was spared and not a single detail overlooked. There are top-notch facilities to complement this, too, including a restaurant and bar, parking, and free bike hire.
6. Aria Hotel Prague
Address: Tržiště 9, 118 00 Malá Strana
Best for: Garden views
If you don’t mind splashing out for five star style and service, music-themed Aria Hotel in Prague has superlative levels of luxury to offer.
The building was once a theatre, and overlooks the Baroque Vrtbovska Gardens, which date from the 18th century.
Rooms are classically elegant, with velvet furnishings adding a glamorous touch. The shared spaces, meanwhile, are exceptional.
These include a rooftop dining terrace, lounges with a piano or fireplace, a movie theatre, a music library, a gym, and a gourmet restaurant.
7. Miss Sophie’s Charles Bridge
Address: Malostranské nám. 28, 110 00 Malá Strana
Best for: A quirky stay
Whether you crave additional space or want to self-cater, Miss Sophie’s Charles Bridge is in the historic heart of the Mala Strana district.
There are just three accommodation options at this property: double and two bedroom apartments for two or six people, plus a junior suite sleeping up to four.
This is a quirky place to stay, with wooden beams and unique details reflecting the Rococo Palace location.
You get the best of both worlds here, with your own kitchenette as well as a yummy daily breakfast served on site.
8. Design Hotel Jewel Prague
Address: Rytířská 529/3, 110 00 Staré Město
Best for: Eating in or out
Design Hotel Jewel Prague is indeed a gem in a number of ways.
With 11 rooms, it’s conveniently close to the centre of the city, close to Wenceslas Square, the Stavovske (or Estates) Theatre, and plenty of local eateries.
On site you’ll also find the Jewel cafe bar, which is open for breakfast, brunch, and lunch.
As you might expect, accommodation is decorated with a jewel theme, with room names ranging from Amber to Sapphire.
Splashes of ruby red, topaz yellow, or emerald green liven up each.
9. Hotel Maximilian
Address: Haštalská 752/14, 110 00 Staré Město
Best for: Cleanliness and comfort
Housed in a regal 19th century terrace, Hotel Maximilian flawlessly fuses comfort and design to create one of Prague’s most covetable properties.
With 71 rooms, it offers a choice of room types and range of facilities, yet feels more peaceful and personal than a larger hotel.
Guests can also use the gym at Hotel Josef, a nearby sister property.
Hotel Maximilian is airy and bright throughout, with pale wood flooring, curving lines, and a range of hues from baby pink to deep blue.
It’s a soothing setting, with staff who go out of their way to make your stay special. Brasserie Maximilian also serves three meals a day, plus afternoon tea and cocktails.
10. Domus Balthasar
Address: 5, Mostecká 282, Malá Strana, 118 00
Best for: Castle vistas
If you dream of swoon-worthy vistas, then you must book a castle view suite at Domus Balthasar in Prague.
This boutique property also has oodles of charm and character, with beamed ceilings, painted wall panelling, and industrial style bathrooms.
Domus Balthasar is the perfect Prague property for multilingual guests, as staff speak German and Spanish as well as Czech and English.
There’s also a laundry, 24-hour reception, airport shuttle service, and a tour desk that can arrange bike rental and other travel.
11. Jungmann Hotel
Address: Jungmannovo nám. 762/2, 110 00 Nové Město
Best for: A Golden Cross location
Book a room at Jungmann Hotel and you can expect spacious accommodation, helpful staff, and crisp, contemporary decor featuring herringbone parquet flooring.
I love that the property is positioned in the Golden Cross area, with Wenceslas Square only 100 metres away. Můstek underground station is also very close to the hotel.
A delicious breakfast is served daily, with a good choice of items. For cleanliness, comfort, and more than a dash of style, Jungmann offers an outstanding location, superb service, and great value for money.
12. Bishop’s House
Address: Dražického nám. 6, 118 00 Malá Strana
Best for: Local history
Hotel Bishop’s House has a fine pedigree – it was once the bishop’s seat, and now you can stay in a tower once occupied by the clergyman.
Once you step inside this Prague design hotel, though, you wouldn’t know it. It’s fresh and sleek throughout.
For more character, pick a top floor room, where you can gaze up at the intricate, original ceiling from the comfort of your bed.
As well as oozing style, Bishop’s House offers some impressive amenities, including air conditioning, an airport shuttle, room service, and family rooms.
