Madonna made Mandarin Oriental Prague her base during concert visits in 2009 and 2015. Away from the stage, the setting could hardly be more different: a former monastery tucked into Mala Strana, with a leafy courtyard and historic architecture. The hotel opened in 2006, bringing contemporary comfort to the old complex without losing its character. Return from exploring Prague for Czech cooking at Monastiq, or visit the spa, where a glass floor reveals the remains of an earlier church. It's a city stay with unusually tangible history.
Television chef Zdeněk Pohlreich has entertained interviewers over lunch and conversation at Café Imperial, the restaurant inside this Prague landmark. His connection is culinary, not a reported overnight stay. The café's original ceramic walls and mosaic ceiling date to 1914, giving dinner a setting as memorable as the Czech cooking. Upstairs, Art Deco furnishings meet renovated bathrooms with heated floors and mirrors. Book a table ahead: this is a hotel where the restaurant deserves a place in your plans, not just a passing breakfast visit.
The Alcron opened near Wenceslas Square in 1932 and reopened as Almanac X Alcron after a major 2023 renovation. Reputable hotel histories identify Charlie Chaplin among the famous guests accommodated at the original Alcron. The current property retains the historic name and Art Deco identity while offering fully modernized rooms and restaurants.
Madonna stayed at Four Seasons Hotel Prague when her Confessions Tour reached the city in September 2006. The concerts were across town; her hotel placed her beside the Vltava, close to Charles Bridge and the Old Town's winding streets. Opened in 2001, it joins historic buildings with a modern wing, pairing crystal-lit interiors with carefully framed river views. Book a river-facing room for the setting, then settle into CottoCrudo for Italian cooking by the water. The attraction is Prague on your doorstep, with a grand hotel to return to.
COSMOPOLITAN Hotel Prague puts its setting first amid Prague's tranquil heart. It is a design-led retreat with an easy relationship to the streets and character of Prague.
