The City of One Hundred Spires
As one of Europe’s most visited and most historic cities, Prague is a crossroads of Old World charm and 21st-century splendor. Meticulously preserved buildings tell the story of this ancient city through Gothic, Romanesque, baroque, and art nouveau architecture and its medieval center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On the flip side, the Czech capital has leapt into the modern era, with acclaimed restaurants, art museums, and cutting-edge shops popping up amid cobblestone streets and towering church spires. Your accommodations put you in the center of a city that has been an international cultural hub for centuries – and, likely, centuries to come.
