Afar calls this Four Seasons “the grandest hotel in all of Prague” and raves of the incredible central location “at the foot of the Charles Bridge in medieval Old Town—with views across the Vltava to Prague Castle in one direction and over the Jewish Quarter and Rudolfinum Concert Hall in the other.” The 157-room hotel straddles three historic buildings and “is very close to everything we wanted to go to,” writes a Tripadvisor user. “It was close to walk to the Castle, restaurants and shopping.” Don’t miss its highly-acclaimed Mediterranean restaurant, Cotto Crudo. >> Book this hotel for less

Dining options include The Vault, a wood-paneled bar set in the former bank’s actual vault.

Augustine, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Prague (Letenská 12/33; 420-266-112-233) Malá Strana
This 101-room hotel is in a building of erstwhile monks’ quarters. “But instead of monastic austerity there’s a tasteful sense of modern luxe,” writes Condé Nast Traveler. The magazine likes that “rooms are done in rich fabrics and dressed up with elements of local design,” and that you “can take a tour of the historic library, monastery, and chapel with one of the monks who still live in the separate monastic quarters.” A Google reviewer likes the pancakes and waffles at breakfast, the heated bathroom floors, and the affable service. “The staff is very friendly … they allowed me to practice my Czech language with them.
