K+K bases itself around a central tenet of simplicity and comfort. This manifests itself through the spacious lobby, the near monotone room schemes and the almost Puritan attention to functionality. Although those puritans might be slightly offended by the burgeoning trade in the sins of the flesh outside.

Hotel Fenix, situated on a side street running off Wenceslas Square, possesses a surprising amount of flair. To all intents and purposes it’s a chain hotel, but the light, airy lobby creates a great first impression that extends, more or less, throughout the rest of the building.
Popular with business travellers as well as a younger leisure crowd, it mixes interior design and state-of-the-art amenities and seems to attract a decent range of clientele. Fenix has 130 rooms in total, most of them decorated with muted colours and modern furniture.
Front windows are double-glazed, which is just as well since the hotel is unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your point of view) close to two of the town’s best known adult clubs: Atlas and Darling (see Party). The rooms at the back are quieter, and it’s just a short walk from here to the centre of the city and away from the hubbub outside.
With a health club in the basement and a business centre just off the lobby, this is a good all-round option.
