Art Nouveau Icon in Prague – Grand Hotel Europa

#falladventures #prague #grandhoteleuropa #wenceslassquare #artnouveau #praguearchitecture #czechiatravel #europetrip #historichotels #traveldiary Grand Hotel Europa is one of those buildings that instantly pulls your eyes toward it the moment you walk along Wenceslas Square. Even from the outside, the striking Art Nouveau façade feels like a postcard — ornate details, soft colors, and that distinct old-world charm that Prague does so well. I didn’t stay there, but just admiring its exterior was already a treat. What I loved was how the hotel stands out so gracefully among the modern shops and busy street life around it. The whole building feels like a time capsule from the early 1900s, adding so much character to the square. It’s the kind of place that makes you pause, look up, and appreciate the craftsmanship that went into historic European architecture. Travel Tips & How to Get There • 📍 Location: Wenceslas Square, Prague • 🕒 Best Time to Visit: Daytime for clear views of the façade; evening for warm street lights reflecting on the building • 💡 Tips: • Perfect stop for architecture lovers exploring Wenceslas Square. • Great photo spot — especially capturing the intricate details on the upper floors. • Easy to reach via Muzeum or Můstek metro stations.
