Restored Renaissance guesthouse
This sixteenth-century Jewish quarter residence is now a minimalist guesthouse shaped around raw Renaissance vaults and quiet woodwork.
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Five rooms with colored floors, bare barrel vaults, and recycled timber furniture.
Notable
Sixteenth-century Renaissance residence in the Jewish quarter, restored down to original stone steps.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Mikulov Castle rises directly behind the house, and the quiet lanes of the historic Jewish quarter wind toward town.
The rooms
Bedrooms take their names from the color of their floors, with whitewashed walls and beds crafted from recycled wooden beams.
Restaurant
wine cellar
A long timber-beam table sits beneath whitewashed brick vaults, set for private tastings of regional bottles.
How it began

The sixteenth-century house lacked a single right angle, prompting studio ORA to custom-build every fixture to fit the leaning walls.
