The Four Seasons is of predictably high quality, everything from its situation, to the architecture, the facilities, the food and the service are all of the highest possible calibre and make for a wonderful stay, yet, as is often the case, uniqueness is unfortunatley missing.

Almost immediately after opening in early 2001, the Four Seasons was forced to close for a year because of the 2002 floods. However, the hotel has now reopened as luxurious as ever, displaying all the extravagance you would expect from this exclusive brand.
With fantastic views of the Castle and Charles Bridge from its privileged setting on the banks of the Vltava, the Four Seasons comprises three historic buildings from the city’s most important architectural periods – Baroque, Renaissance, and Art Nouveau. The vast space houses 161 rooms and suites.
All are fitted with fine wooden furniture, and some have antiques while others are more avant-garde, but conveniences from CD players to high-speed internet connections are provided in all rooms. While only some offer great views, the best suites do have balconies, sweeping vistas and sunken marble tubs.
The Four Seasons is also home to Allegro (see Eat), one of the city’s best restaurants. Indeed, one of the highlights of a stay here is taking in dinner on the terrace of the Allegro restaurant on a balmy summer evening, followed by a symphony at the nearby Rudolfinum.
