Michelin Guide
"Well-maintained, modern hotel in a quiet area, with a bright lobby and comfortable, contemporary bedrooms."
Fodor's
"What is mood lifting is the hotel's Planet Zen spa. The location can't be beat, either, next to two of the city's best restaurants and a five-minute walk from Old Town Square." Full review
Travel + Leisure
"The Maximilian is a welcoming spot near the Old Town Square." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"One of the most fashionable places to stay in the city. Exquisitely furnished rooms with over-sized beds are the order of the day at the Maximilian."
Star Service
"On a quiet cobblestoned square...this hotel faces the street with an elegant period facade that gives no indication that the interior is equipped to meet modern expectations." Full review

"With a superb location and smart, friendly staff, the 71 room Maximilian is a great base from which to discover Prague, since most of the city is within walking distance of the front door." Full review
