From seemingly every window there is a view of the ancient and historic city of Prague. You will glimpse crooked cobbled streets, tiny shops and mediaeval houses. You will see red tiled roofs and ornate spires. Or you will be drawn to views of the hotel’s own, quaint courtyard – a relic of the old monastery that has hardly changed in centuries.

Although it was originally a collection of three historic buildings – including the 13^th century Augustinian monastery – the Augustine also includes the best of modern amenities. Sympathetic but stylish design from Olga Polizzi. Period features. Even a three-floor suite topped by a bathroom giving stunning city views.
