Augustine Hotel

12/33 Letenská
Prague , Czech Republic http://www.theaugustine.com/
420 2 6611-2233

Luxury hotelier Rocco Forte spread the 101 Cubist-inspired guest rooms at his latest property throughout seven historic buildings in central Prague. The results are a testament to how an international hotel brand can achieve an authentic sense of place in one property. Few European hotels can match the Augustine, with its still-active ecclesiastical libraries and 18th-century frescoes, for pedigree (the Mandarin Oriental, Prague, just blocks away from the Augustine and also housed in a former monastery, is one). Some of the textiles in the rooms are faithful reproductions of archival Cubist and Modernist designs; others are more playful interpretations of them. The Tower suite, situated on three floors, is set inside the observatory of the 14th-century St. Thomas Monastery.
