The Esplanade Hotel Prague can host board meetings, seminars, press conferences, presentations, cocktails and private dinners for between 14 and 70 guests. Three rooms are named after their colors: the Red Room, the Blue Room and the Golden Room. The five-star hotel opened in 1927 and stands on Washingtonova street in the historic center of Prague, so a small group can meet, dine and sleep in the same building.
Seminars and company events
The Golden Room is the one set up for work. The hotel says it has the technical equipment that conferences, seminars, presentations and private dinners require, and it holds up to 70 people. The Blue Room suits seminars, meetings and press conferences for up to 40 people, and the hotel stresses that it has natural daylight. The Red Room is the most private, with up to 14 people, and is presented for important meetings that need discretion. This range of sizes suits executive committees, supplier negotiations, client presentations and short training sessions rather than large congresses.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel does not list a wedding offer on its official site. It does present the Red Room for celebrations of important moments in life and the Blue Room for festive events and cocktails, so small private receptions can be discussed with the hotel directly.
Rooms and capacities
The Red Room measures 4.7 m by 6.7 m and holds up to 14 people. The Blue Room measures 6 m by 7.5 m and holds up to 40 people. The Golden Room measures 6 m by 14 m and holds up to 70 people. The hotel does not publish separate capacities per layout, so an organizer should ask which setup, theater, classroom or round tables, the stated figure applies to.
Accommodation
The hotel rates itself five stars and offers Single, Double, Executive Single, Executive Double and Triple rooms, as well as a Deluxe Junior Suite and a Historical Suite. The Executive rooms are on the sixth and seventh floors with city views. They have a rain shower, oak parquet floors polished with wax, a Murano crystal chandelier and Fischbacher wallpaper, along with fast Wi-Fi and a Nespresso machine. The number of bedrooms is not stated on the official site.
Catering
The hotel has a French restaurant, an all-day café and a night bar. The site presents the Golden Room for private dinners, so a seated meal for a group of up to 70 can be held in a private room instead of the restaurant. Menus and service formats for meetings are agreed with the hotel.
History and setting
The hotel was inaugurated in 1927 and its identity is built on the atmosphere of the 1920s. It sits in the historic center of Prague, close to the main sights, with the airport and the train station both shown on its location page. For a client who wants a meeting with a period setting rather than a purpose-built conference center, this is the main appeal.
Getting there
The hotel's address is Washingtonova 1600/19, Prague 1. The official site offers a route planner from the airport or the train station, and the hotel offers airport transfers on request.
