Glossary

5-star hotel
High-end hotel category. It implies a strong level of facilities and service, without alone defining style or intimacy.
Boutique hotel
A smaller-scale hotel with a strong decorative or cultural identity. The experience is often more personal than in a large property.
Hotel spa
A wellness area integrated into the hotel. Its real value depends on size, treatment rooms, pool facilities and treatment quality.
Malá Strana
Historic district below Prague Castle. It appeals to travelers seeking relative calm, heritage and quick access to Charles Bridge.
Palace
In this selection, the term refers to the positioning communicated for certain hotels. It is not the French Atout France distinction, which applies only in France.
Suite
A room category with a separate or more generous living area. It suits longer stays, families or business travelers better.
Vltava view
A room or suite facing the river. In Prague, this feature strongly shapes the stay and often the rate.
