“Hotel Josef struck me as a design-conscious space, with its glass and steel accents and Eva Jiřičná's touch; it's a stylish base to explore Prague's cultural heart, including Old Town Square and Prague Castle. The fresh pastries from the in-house bakery, combined with the tranquil garden, creates a unique urban retreat. It's a very good hotel overall, despite some hiccups.”
