Boscolo Prague
Central stay with a historic edge



Just a stone’s throw away from the city’s most visited sites – including the striking Art Deco Municipal House – the 152-key Boscolo holds court in a majestic, Neoclassical edifice, artfully restored by a star-studded line-up of international starchitects including the legendary Adam Tihany. With eye-catching Art Nouveau design elements like alabaster columns, gilt stuccoes and elaborate brass chandeliers, the atmosphere is nothing short of theatrical, with interesting touches like a Cigar Bar, sited in the erstwhile quarters of a bank, and the Inn Ox Lounge, with its glimmering crystal and steel accents and inventive Italian rations further bolstering the lively scene.
