Barceló Hotels & Resorts in Prague

A 5-star hotel in Prague with a central location is the best starting point to begin a tour of this European capital of innumerable charms. The Old City Center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site , so a vacation in Prague should always start and end here.

The main points of interest in the city are found in the neighborhoods of Staré Mesto (Old Town), Malá Strana (Little Town) and Hradcany, popular for their architectural wealth, their museums and theaters and the best value for money hotels in Prague . These are places whose splendor resurfaced after the end of the communist era and which currently concentrate most of the artistic and cultural activity of the Czech capital. Staying in these areas, the traveler who arrives in the city without knowing very well what to do in Prague only has to go out to find a captivating reality.

The Alley of Gold and its legends, the Old Town Square with its emblematic astronomical clock, the dazzling castle complex and its surroundings, Kafka's house or the historical museums of Josefov (the Jewish Quarter), are some of the visits most popular during a vacation in Prague.

Throughout its history, Prague has been one of those European cities where very varied cultures and traditions have converged. This mixture of concepts is something that is also reflected in its gastronomy.

Czechs tend to have a special predilection for meat and vegetables, but if there is something that differentiates their gastronomy from other European dishes, it is their weakness for spices. Taste an utopenec (sausage marinated with pepper and onion) accompanied by the traditional knedlíky (flour or potato balls) and end the lunch with a hot wine, has been something as deeply rooted in the country's culture as the representations of 'black theater' .

Beyond the popular flavors, there is another option to discover the gastronomic richness of the region in its most modern and innovative versions. The restaurants of some central Prague hotels such as the Occidental Praha Five are a good place to try the typical dishes of the city and try some of the most characteristic flavors of the country in an environment conducive to the delight of all the senses. As in their rooms, these establishments take maximum care of the details of a good presentation so that both guests and visitors have the option of discovering the magic of Prague through the palate.
