The Rocco Forte Collection' Prague property is currently under development. For the most recent construction updates please click here to visit the developer's website.

The Rocco Forte Collection is to open a five-star hotel in the heart of the Czech Republic capital, in the immediate neighbourhood of Prague Castle. The 101-room property will be created from a complex of five buildings, most of which are historical monuments. The largest and most important structure is St Thomas's Monastery, which dates to the 1400s.

The Monastery will provide the hotel with a picturesque setting of established courtyards and elegant garden squares, while retaining certain areas for the practising Augustinian friars who remain in situ. Key historic features such as cloistered terraces, wooden ceilings, wine vaults and stone arches will be incorporated into the hotel design. New additions will include a tranquil courtyard entrance, accessible by car from Letenska Street, and a glassed-in courtyard, which will become the hotel's main restaurant complete with two protected trees.

The Rocco Forte Collection is working on the Prague hotel with locally-based architect Martin Kotik, a partner in Architects Studio Omicron-K, and London-based interior designers, RDD, who have also been assisting on Brown's Hotel in London. The interiors will be overseen by The Rocco Forte Collection's Director of Design Olga Polizzi and will very much reflect the hotel's location.
