#  The SL City Guide To… Prague  


A chic European hotspot, Prague comes into its own during the winter months when its Christmas markets brim with festive treats, ice skating rinks pop up around the city, and the main attractions aren’t overrun with tourists. Here’s how to spend a long weekend in the Czech capital.

### WHERE TO STAY 



  

## Boho Hotel

This boutique hotel set in a former art-deco post office has been given a slick makeover in recent years. Just a five-minute walk from Prague’s Old Town, guests will appreciate the cleverly designed rooms and modern interiors. Book a spacious suite for a weekend trip – all of which have eye-catching marble bathrooms with fluffy towels and robes – and make your way around the nearby cafés and bars to sample the local produce. The hotel also has an impressive spa, gym and library, as well as a modern restaurant and bar which hosts regular jazz nights.

Rooms from £128 per night.

## Alchymist Grand Hotel and Spa

Easily one of the smartest hotels in the city, Alchymist is in a great location, right next to Prague Castle and the famous Charles Bridge. Set within four houses dating back to the 16th century, the hotel has grand interiors that look like something out of a medieval castle – think plush furniture and opulent accents throughout. There are 27 rooms and 19 suites to choose from – all with spacious marble bathrooms – as well as an on-site spa, and the award-winning Italian restaurant Aquarius.

Rooms from £165 per night.

## Mandarin Oriental

In Prague’s historic Malá Strana district, Mandarin Oriental Prague is surrounded by cobbled streets and impressive landscaped gardens. Guests can choose to stay in modern rooms with city views or suites with floor-to-ceiling windows and Prague-inspired artwork. Guests can enjoy treatments at the spa before eating at Spices Bar &amp; Lounge which offers all-day dining and cocktails in the evening until 10pm.

Rooms from £200 per night.

## Au Gourmand

This French patisserie always has a tempting selection of pastries, cakes and desserts to choose from. Get to Au Gourmand first thing to enjoy coffee and freshly baked croissants, or stop by at lunch for toasties and sweet treats like chocolate éclairs, mini lemon meringue pies and custard slices.

Visit @AuGourmand

 

## Divinis

This elegant Italian restaurant gets booked up quickly, so be sure to reserve a table in advance. In the Old Town, it serves rustic, seasonal dishes alongside an extensive menu of Italian wines. Mediterranean plates include linguine vongole, veal tartare with truffle, grilled calamari in pomodoro sauce, taglioni with wild boar ragu, and quail with buttery mashed potatoes. Be sure to leave room for dessert – we like the sound of the hazelnut tartlet with orange caramel.
