Welcome to a newly open luxury boutique hotel situated in the historical heart of Prague, in Tomášská street,
Lesser Town. We offer you a singular and original ambient designed by AI DESIGN architectural studio in cooperation with Eva Jiřičná Architects atelier in London, sensitively set in the premises of the historical house At the Three Storks, thus creating perfect harmony between the extant Renaissance interior and the most advanced design.
During the reconstruction of the house, major emphasis was put on application of clear line and combination of natural materials, metal, stone, glass and wood. Highly unconventional interior design may be found in the hotel reception and lobby bar dominated by a reception desk and a bar, both made of illumined cut stone. Another interesting feature is a panoramic lift finely incorporated in the old architecture, faciliating access to individual guest rooms.

The hotel offers accommodation in 10 double De Luxe rooms, 8 standard double rooms and 2 single rooms. The low number of rooms warrants intimacy and hominess of a small hotel, whereas at the same time meets international
five-star service quality standards.

The hotel is situated in the picturesque quiet neighbourhood of Lesser Town bellow majestic Prague castle, in the near vicinity of attractive and interesting tourist sights and renowned restaurants.

The first mentions of the house, sometimes also called Altmann House or House At the Kings Magi, date back to the 14th century when, in this locality, the Augustinian Order founded the first Monasterial Brewery of St.Thomas. The only reminder of this period preserved until today is a large Gothic cellar. In the first half of the 17th century, the house was reconstructed in the Rennaisance style and given the name of House At the Three Storks and a house sign with the embossment of three storks.

Today´s appearance of the facade comes from the Classicist reconstruction in 1794 and 1820, when the connection with three neighbouring buildings resulted in the current aspect of the whole house. The facade with the house sign on a stone plaque and the main portal date precisely from this period.

In the 1930´s, the history of the renowned Wallenstein restaurant, named after famous Czech aristocratic family and frequented by number of well-known personalities, started evolving in this house.

The name of the House At the Three Storks has its implication. The stork used to be a carrier of good news and blissful home. We strongly believe that every visit to this house will comply with the Latin saying originally placed under the house sign: "Frustra mundus invidet, quando Deus providet" - "The world envies in vain, when God takes care".
