Prague is one of my favorite cities in Europe. Ever since my first visit in 2006, I’ve loved coming here. The winding cobblestone streets, medieval buildings, and spacious squares give the city an unrivaled historic allure.

Since my first visit, the city has skyrocketed in popularity. It gets crowded in the summer and there are now tons of hotels to choose from. I’ve stayed in a bunch of them over the years, so to help you plan your visit, here’s my list of the best hotels in Prague:

1. Hotel Metamorphis

This four-star hotel is located in a historic building right near the Old Town Square. The rooms are bright, spacious, and airy, with a lot of natural light. The décor is a little dated, but the rooms feature light colors and distinct touches, such as exposed beams or unique tiles. Rooms also include a flatscreen TV, minibar, desk, and coffee maker. The bathrooms look a little dated but they are super spacious. A tasty breakfast with eggs, meat, and fresh bread can be included (though it’s located in a nearby building so you have to walk a couple minutes to access it).

What makes this hotel an excellent choice, aside from the convenient location, is that there is a beer spa on-site. Guests can soak in a wooden tub filled with beer while also enjoying unlimited beer to drink. It doesn’t get more Czech than this!

2. Czech Inn

This three-star hotel is part hotel, part hostel, so there are both private rooms and dorms here. It’s a solid no-frills choice that’s more social than your average hotel, with free walking tours and a lively on-site bar where it’s easy to meet people. The breakfast buffet is filling and has a lot of variety (it’s affordable too). There’s also a well-equipped kitchen in case you want to cook your own meals.

The décor is rustic, with lots of exposed brick throughout. The private rooms are colorful but simple, with lots of natural light that contrasts with the darker colors and furniture. Some rooms even have hardwood or parquet floors. Rooms include a TV, coffee/tea maker, and desk. It’s also just a one-minute walk to the city center. Overall, it’s an inexpensive choice for budget travelers who want a central location.

3. Augustine

Set in a still-working monastery from the Middle Ages, this posh five-star property has 100 large rooms spread out over seven buildings. There’s a luxurious spa on site as well as a 24/7 fitness center with a sauna and steam room. Each room is large and airy, with lots of natural light. Rooms feature stylish furniture, including sofas or armchairs, and historic touches like exposed beams. The beds are super comfy, and rooms also include a flatscreen TV, minibar, and coffee/tea maker. The bathrooms are large and elegant, with beautiful tilework, great water pressure, and even a bidet.

There’s a beautiful courtyard on-site as well as a delicious breakfast (though it’s not cheap). What really sets this hotel apart though is that the basement bar serves homemade beer brewed from the recipe of the monks who live in an adjacent building.

4. Botanique Hotel

Located in Karlin, a popular foodie neighborhood, this four-star hotel is chic and minimalist, with an eco-friendly focus. The recently renovated rooms feature lots of light wood, soft colors, and large windows that invite in lots of natural light. The rooms are spacious too, and include a flatscreen smart TV, desk, minifridge, Nespresso machine, and complimentary bottled water. The bathrooms, which are also spacious and modern, include organic bath products as well as rain showers with great pressure.

There’s both a fitness center and a restaurant on-site that focuses on local and seasonal ingredients. They also serve an excellent buffet breakfast each morning that has a ton of variety (including plenty of gluten-free and vegan options).

5. Art Hotel

This arty property is located near the National Gallery. The avant-garde hotel has its own collection of Czech modern art too. Each boutique room has unique art and stylish décor featuring lots of neutral tones and wooden furniture. The rooms are really big and have large windows that bring in lots of natural light. They also include comfy beds, desks, flatscreen TVs, minibars, and coffee/tea makers. The bathrooms are simple but have excellent water pressure. The breakfast has decent variety too, though the veg options are a bit limited.

This hotel is a good choice for travelers looking to indulge in the city’s nightlife, as the hotel is located in Vršovice, a popular neighborhood for bar hopping that gets busy on the weekends.

6. Dancing House

This is the most unique hotel in Prague. A four-star property, it’s set in a dynamic Frank Gehry-designed building that offers views of Prague Castle and the Old Town (the iconic building looks like it’s moving, hence the name). The upscale rooms are elegant and minimalist, featuring stylish neutral tones. The beds are super comfy, and rooms also include a flatscreen TV, coffee/tea maker, electric kettle, desk, minibar, and excellent soundproofing so you can get a decent sleep. The bathrooms are large and include complimentary toiletries, a bidet, and showers with detachable showerheads and excellent water pressure.

The breakfast has a lot of variety, including lots of fresh fruit, and there’s both a bar and restaurant on-site. The hotel is located in Naplavka, a neighborhood situated right by the river that’s brimming with bars and restaurants. This is the perfect choice for travelers who want a unique and memorable stay (it’s surprisingly affordable too).

Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. That means the city is super popular, with a ton of hotels to choose from. Pick one from the list above and you’ll be guaranteed to have an amazing visit to this postcard-perfect city, no matter your budget.
