IHG Hotels & Resorts has signed to open InterContinental Prague, marking the brand’s return to the Czech capital city. The 137-key luxury property is expected to open in the first half of 2029, and – as of now – would be IHG Hotels’ only luxury property in the city.
The brand previously operated the InterContinental Prague (earlier known as the Inter-Continental Praha) from roughly 1974 to 2020, with the name change occurring in 2003. That property now functions as the Fairmont Golden Prague.
Located in Prague’s Old Town, the historic building dates to 1839 and has served many purposes over the years—from a dance hall and theatre to, more recently, office space. The renovation will be overseen by Generali Real Estate.
The hotel will be situated close to the city’s main railway station, offering excellent transport links to all areas of the city by both road and public transport. Guests will be within walking distance of several must-see sights, such as Charles Bridge, Old Town Square and the Prague Astronomical Clock.
Guests staying at InterContinental Prague can additionally look forward to a luxury spa with a wellness area and pool, a bar, restaurant and the brand’s signature lounge, Club InterContinental. The property will also have its own private garden where guests and locals alike can unwind from the bustling city.
For business travelers, the hotel will have conference facilities and will be conveniently located close to a number of corporate offices in the city center.
The InterContinental Hotels & Resorts brand is undergoing a “transformative end-to-end brand evolution, reimaging the luxury travel experience for the modern luxury travel.”
IHG as of Q3 2025, has 34 open InterContinental hotels and resorts across Europe, with InterContinental Prague set to join four other InterContinental branded properties in Central and Eastern Europe. The hotel will also further expand IHG’s fast-growing luxury and lifestyle offering in Europe with 112 open hotels and a further 67 in development, across brands including Six Senses, Kimpton and InterContinental.
