The ICON Hotel

Icon Hotel

"At first glance, it’s hard to see beyond the high-tech surface of this refurbished Art Nouveau building just south of Wenceslas Square, where all 31 sleekly designed rooms have Skype phones, free Wi-Fi as well as biometric safes that unlock with a fingerprint. Despite the high-tech gadgets, the hotel maintains a calm residential feel, and its tastefully minimalist decor, comfortable beds with hypoallergenic linens, professional staff, and moderate prices make it an excellent value in a city with an increasing number of luxe options. Considering the tech appeal and the cool in-house bar and lounge, it’s no surprise that the crowd here tends to be youthful and ready to mingle. In recognition of the late nights, breakfast is served until 11 nightly."
