Rough Guide
"Prague’s classic 1950s Stalinist wedding-cake hotel, with its dour socialist realist friezes and large helpings of marble, is now run by Austrians. Doubles from 2000Kč."
Lonely Planet
"The Hotel International was built in the 1950s to a design inspired by a tower of Moscow University, right down to the Soviet-style star on top of the spire. The interior is just as impressive." Full review
Frommer's
"This is another corporate chain (like the Diplomat) that offers good-value rooms, with the trade-off being a slightly out of the way location." Full review
Star Service

"The rooms are mostly standard chain-hotel style, with all the necessities but not many luxuries. The deluxe rooms, on the higher floors, are more spacious and have good views over the city." Full review

Frommer's
"The Josef stands as the new home for tasteful minimalism in the new Bohemia. It is the hippest of Prague's new hip hotels." Full review
Concierge
"The city's highest style quotient—or most self-conscious design statement—belongs to this 2003-vintage place five minutes' walk from Old Town Square near Josefov."
DK Eyewitness
"This ultra-modern hotel is a wonderful contrast to the historic Jewish Quarter."
Rough Guide
"Prague’s top designer hotel exudes modern professionalism, the lobby is a symphony in off-white efficiency and the rooms continue the crisply maintained minimalist theme."
Star Service
"In the center of the city...in the touristy Jewish quarter, this is one of Prague's more distinct design-hotels, and its popularity arises for a reason; this is a wonderful hotel." Full review
i
The best choice is to ask for a room facing the garden.
