Andaz Prague opens......................

Andaz Prague Opens!


The first Hyatt hotel in the Czech Republic has recently opened in Prague,  the property is the fifth of the Andaz brand in Europe and represents a major milestone opening in Hyatt's expansion places.  

The hotel is located on Senovážné Square, within the magnificent and historical ‘Sugar Palace’ that dates back to 1916, originally built for the influential Sugar Industry Insurance Association. The building has since been carefully restored and preserved. In typical Andaz style, the 176 room hotel retains an ambience of local lifestyle experience woven into the fabric of the local culture. 

Andaz Prague has deep roots to the city of Prague and is currently an extension of Prague’s thriving arts, cultural and fashion scene. With Josefov, Prague’s Jewish quarter known for its rich history, and the commercial hub of New Town nearby, along with inspiring museums, incredible architecture and a variety of local shops to enjoy, Andaz Prague offers guests the very best of its locale.


“As the Andaz brand is known for stimulating the creativity and curiosity of each guest, we are honoured to introduce the brand to the Czech Republic,” said Doris Hecht, general manager at Andaz Prague. “We are excited to welcome guests to Andaz Prague where we offer a unique experience through distinctive expressions of the local culture.

The beautiful city of Prague continues to inspire many travellers to explore its rich offerings and Andaz Prague’s location offers guests the opportunity to take in some of the most stunning historic sites in Europe.”


176 thoughtfully-designed rooms and suites capture and combine the city’s rich heritage with modern creativity to deliver a luxurious respite with breathtaking city views. The rooms offer comfortable beds, many of which are guarded by Bruncvík’s lion atop the blue velvet bedposts, which is a reference to one of many Czech legends that inspired the entire concept of the property.

Guests can experience Prague's bohemian luxury with a plethora of beautiful suites, including the spacious, corner Residence Suites that feature windows that open to views of Prague’s Dancing Fountain. The palatial 1,400 square foot (130 square meters) Penthouse Suite offers stylish, handcrafted furnishings, ornate mouldings, a marble fireplace and an exquisite sunroom.

Guests and locals will delight in a modern Czech bistronomy within ZEM, which serves a combination of bistro dishes created with haute cuisine methods. Local ingredients coming from Moravia and Bohemia are crafted into modern versions of Czech comfort food through, using high-quality ingredients and natural flavours. The menu also honours the influences of authentic Nikkei, which include Japanese meat dishes from the charcoal grill and handmade dumplings.



The standalone MEZ bar delivers an exhilarating atmosphere for both locals and visitors. The signature cocktails, infused with local ingredients, are inspired by the historical figures of Prague.

The Andaz Studios include three flexible event spaces that can accommodate anything from boardroom meetings to intimate private dinners, or can be combined into one large 1,615 square foot (150 square meters) space for conferences, receptions and corporate events.  



The unique meeting spaces are inspired by Prague's bygone sugar barons that used the building in the early 20th century. Meeting spaces Collegium 1 and 2 feature magnificent, high, ornate ceilings and oak parquet flooring, with sunlight flooding these rooms through their grand windows.
