Almanac X Alcron Prague
Prague, Czechia
New Town
Vibe
Gilded elevators, green marble columns, and a spiralling staircase frame a bustling lobby lined with contemporary Czech art.
“Restored Art Deco beacon”
Interiors blend functionalist Art Deco lines with herringbone oak, limestone bathrooms, and commissioned contemporary Czech art.
Polished hospitality complemented by heated limestone bathroom floors, custom coffee capsules, and evening turndown in quiet suites.
Original 1930s Art Deco architecture preserved with a spiralling marble staircase, gilded elevators, and an onyx fireplace.
In Nové Město, steps from Wenceslas Square and a walk from Old Town Square.
“Housed in a former Art Deco landmark, it still carries the elegance of its 1930s origins, but with a sharper, more present-day outlook.”
Rooms
Herringbone oak floors and curated Czech paintings anchor the rooms, complemented by heated limestone bathrooms with walk-in rainfall showers.
Wellness
A 24-hour fitness centre features modern cardio equipment alongside dedicated saunas and a private room for restorative massages.
Backstory
Architect Alois Krofta opened the Art Deco landmark in 1932, hosting luminaries from Charlie Chaplin to Ella Fitzgerald.
Eat & drink
Plant-forward Czech cuisine defines Brasserie 1932, while the Alcron Bar mixes cocktails inspired by the hotel's storied past.
The neighborhood
Tucked onto Štěpánská Street in Nové Město, the hotel sits steps from Wenceslas Square and the historic Lucerna Passage.

The app
This is one hotel. The app has every one we rate, in your pocket, for the whole trip.
Our shorthand
What makes a hotel special, how well they pull it off, and what it feels like outside the door.
How well they pull it off
Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.
Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.
They did this well. You’ll notice.
A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
The eight vibes
Architecture and interiors lead. There’s a creative vision at work.
The guest is conspicuously well cared for. Requests met before they’re made.
Rooted in place. Local character runs through the whole stay.
Energy and scene. Where the city goes out, whether or not it’s sleeping here.
A building with history. The story of the place is part of the stay.
Built around feeling better. Rest, sweat, soak, spa.
A hotel the city grew up with. Same rituals, same regulars.
A world of its own. No reason to leave the property.
Scene — what’s outside the door
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
A place apart: the property is the destination.
