The Bishop's House Hotel dates back to 1843, and has many architectural features which make it a charming place to stay. Situated in the centre of the Prague, this 4 star hotel is near Prague Castle and about 60 metres from Charles bridge.

Welcome at The Bishop´s House, a comfortable four star hotel right in the historical centre of the town, in close vicinity of Charles Bridge and interesting tourist sights and renowned restaurants. The history of the house dates back to the Romanesque period. In the late 12th century, the powerful bishop, Prince Jindrich Bretislav, had a vast court built as a new bishop´s seat on the left bank of the Vltava river. The succeeding bishops and archbishops had it extended and rebuilt. One of the major reconstructions followed a big fire in 1249, started by the rebels against the king Wenceslas I. In the revolutionary year 1419, the court was plundered and burnt down. The bishop´s seat moved away and the house´s walls served as bulding material for new burgher houses. The present appearance of the house, recalling its ancient origin only by the name, is the result of a six year reconstruction of the 16th century building finished in 1843. After a thorough reconstruction finished in 1999, the house was adapted for hotel purposes. Behind the Empire facade, the guests can enjoy both full comfort and genuine atmosphere of the past. The Bishop´s House offers accommodation in quiet and comfortly equipped standard double and triple rooms. The historic and romantic atmosphere is underlined by wooden period furniture. From the top floor rooms, there is a wonderful view of Prague Castle and the picturesque Lesser Town rooftops. All rooms have comfort bathrooms, with a tub or a shower. The rooms are equipped with a hair drier, minibar, safe, direct dial telephone, TV set with satellite reception. There is a possibility of cable internet connection.
