What a joy it was to return each day to the Hotel Palace, a little bit of luxury in the New Town section of Prague. A handsome doorman opened the door with a friendly greeting; the high-ceilinged entry hall was grandly lit; the gracefully decorated Art Nouveau façade was beautiful. Room number 714 is situated at the rear of the hotel, facing north, toward Old Town. We could see the Church of Lady Before Tyn, the Royal Castle and Old Town Powder Tower from our window. I had requested a room with a nice view in an e-mail to the hotel a week before our arrival. They delivered! On the mezzanine level each morning we could choose from a wide variety of breakfast treats including cereals, fresh fruit, fruit juices, yogurt, muffins, pastries, cheeses and meats. The restaurant in the hotel is superb, with top-notch service. The hotel opened on 21.April.1909. George Justich, the architect, designed it in the very fashionable Art Nouveau style for Frantisek Buldro, its owner. Its grand surroundings make it is easy to see how, in the 1920s, the Hotel Palace became a center of social and cultural life in Prague. The Mucha Museum, telling the story of the work and life of the Czech Art Nouveau artist Alphonse Mucha (1860-1939), is located across the street. Be certain to visit! The Hotel Palace closed on 1.January.1986 for extensive renovations. Its original façade was kept in tact. It reopened in 1989. And was renovated again in 2000.
