The President Hotel
Luxury Hotels
The Experience
You'll find the President Hotel standing tall on the Vltava’s right bank. It marks the spot where the Old Town meets the Jewish Quarter. Karel Filsak designed this gray concrete beast in the 1970s. A monument to Brutalism. Now, it’s a sharp luxury hotel Prague travelers choose for its mid-century style and glass-heavy design. The massive windows are the main draw. Every room has them. You get a clear, wide look at Prague Castle and the river traffic below. Don't just look. Each room has a custom wooden bench right under the glass. It's the perfect spot to sit with a drink. Watch the city lights come on. It feels spacious and calm. That’s a rare thing in the cramped, winding streets of the center. You are steps away from the high-end shops on Pařížská Street. It’s an easy pick for anyone who wants a view that hits hard.
What Makes It Stand Out
- Panoramic river and Prague Castle views
- Michelin-starred dining (Levitate)
- Signature wooden window benches
- Rooftop sky bar with 'Zodiac' mixology
Rooms & Accommodation
Spacious, light-filled rooms ranging from 20sqm Superior rooms to the palatial 330sqm Royal Suite, all featuring floor-to-ceiling windows.
Brutalist Heritage & Modern Softening
Karel Filsak built this as 'Hotel Budovatel' in the 1970s. It’s a prime piece of Czech Brutalism. Morix Studio handled the recent update. They kept the concrete bones but fixed the mood. They used rich wood veneers and glass walls to make the inside feel warm. It’s a quiet refuge. The contrast between the rough exterior and the soft interior works perfectly.
A Prime Riverfront Location
You are at the edge of the Old Town and the Jewish Quarter here. Walk five minutes and you'll hit the Astronomical Clock. But because you're on the riverbank, the noise stays away. The hotel sits sideways to the square. This means your windows look straight at Letná Hill and the castle. It’s the best of both worlds.
Culinary & Nightlife Excellence
This place is for people who take food seriously. Levitate holds a Michelin star. It mixes Nordic style with Asian spice. Head to the 6th floor for the Casablanca Sky Bar. They serve strange, interactive cocktails and have DJs on most nights. For breakfast, go to the Vltava restaurant. The river view makes the morning coffee better.
Zen Spa Urban Oasis
Go downstairs to find the Zen Spa. It's a quiet space away from the street noise. You can use the heated indoor pool and the Finnish sauna. There is also a steam bath. They offer Thai massages too. It’s exactly what you need after a day of walking on hard Prague cobblestones. Few luxury hotel Prague options offer this kind of subterranean quiet.
