Seminars and company events
Hotel Josef hosts meetings, workshops and small conferences for up to 80 people in its largest room, and can sleep the whole group in 109 bedrooms on site. The hotel stands on Rybná street in Prague 1, a few minutes on foot from Old Town Square.
The meeting offer rests on three conference rooms of different sizes. The largest, Sun, takes up to 80 people and can be divided with a movable wall, so a plenary session and a breakout group can run side by side. Two smaller rooms, Moon and Small Moon, suit board meetings and team sessions. A small lounge called the Red Room looks over the lobby and serves as a quiet corner for final preparations or a private talk between sessions.
The team adapts layouts, lighting and technical support to each brief. Equipment listed for Sun includes a projector with HDMI and VGA inputs, Polycom video conferencing, flip charts, a whiteboard, a laser pointer and high-speed Wi-Fi. Water, coffee and tea are provided in the room. During breaks, delegates can use the inner courtyard, and hotel guests have a rooftop gym with an in-house trainer.
Rooms and capacities
Sun measures 95 square meters and holds up to 80 people. It has generous daylight and direct access to the garden, which makes a long working day easier. The hotel offers several seating layouts but does not publish a capacity for each one, so ask for a floor plan once your headcount is set. Moon and Small Moon are listed as separate room categories for smaller groups.
Accommodation
Josef has 109 bedrooms in a modern, minimalist style, furnished with design pieces. A group can stay on site for a two-day program and walk to dinner in the Old Town in the evening. The hotel is a member of the Design Hotels network.
Catering
Coffee breaks are prepared by the Josef Bakery, the hotel's own bakery. The kitchen handles dietary requirements and allergies on request. Organizers who prefer their own caterer can bring one, and the hotel team helps with the logistics. After the sessions, drinks can move to the Josef Aperitivo Bar, and Brasserie Maximilian takes table bookings for group dinners.
History and setting
The hotel opened in 2002 in a building designed by the architect Eva Jiřičná, who was born in Czechoslovakia and built her career in London. The interiors are pared back, with white surfaces, glass and plenty of light, which gives meeting days a calm setting in a busy district. Behind the street front, the inner courtyard works as a hidden garden for event guests.
Getting there
The address is Rybná 20, 110 00 Prague 1, in the Old Town. Old Town Square and Charles Bridge are within walking distance. Václav Havel Airport Prague and the main railway station are reached by taxi or public transport. Check transfer times with the hotel when you plan arrivals for a group.
