The arrival of Fairmont Golden Prague signals a new chapter for a landmark on Prague’s storied riverbank.
Reopening under the Fairmont Hotels & Resorts flag, the iconic building has emerged from a multimillion-euro renovation led by chief architect Marek Tichý, who paid homage to the original 1974 brutalist architecture by Karel Filsak.
The design details
Reception desk
Positioned at the gateway of Pařížská Boulevard in Prague’s UNESCO-listed Old Town, the 320-room property invites guests into interiors infused with warm wood tones, elegant modernist flourishes, and original Czech craftwork.
Preserved details—including blown glass chandeliers, gilded fixtures, and ash wood columns—were meticulously restored to blend with contemporary elements, and subtle incorporations of Czech glass artistry define room partitions and lighting.
