New Design Hotel Set to Transform Prague’s Masaryk Station Area

Prague is set to welcome a new landmark with the upcoming opening of The Cloud One Hotel on Hybernská street, slated for May this year.

Developed by Penta Real Estate and operated under the Motel One brand, this innovative project is part of a broader effort to revitalize the Masaryk Railway Station area.

The Cloud One, a new concept introduced by Motel One in New York last year, marks a shift from the brand’s typical economical hotel approach to larger, more design-focused accommodations.

The hotel, inspired by New York’s iconic Flatiron Building, features a distinctive triangular shape designed by Prague-based Schindler Seko Architects.

With 382 rooms spread over five floors, the hotel offers a variety of amenities including a large atrium with service areas, a roof terrace bar, and breathtaking views of the historic center of Prague, Old Town, and Prague Castle.

David Musil, Penta’s head of hotel project development, emphasized that while the hotel caters to guests, the public can also enjoy facilities like the atrium and rooftop bar. “The hotel is more than just a place to stay; it’s a new social hub for both locals and tourists,” Musil stated.

The hotel is located near the new Masaryčka building, designed by the Zaha Hadid Architect group, and opened last year.

Together, these developments are pivotal in the comprehensive plan to facilitate development in the area surrounding the Masarykovo nádraží rail yard and enhance accessibility throughout the city center.

A pedestrian and cyclist path, including access to a planned railway museum, has already been constructed, further integrating the hotel into the urban landscape.

The hotel’s opening is just the beginning of the transformation efforts expected in the area. Plans are underway to construct a roof over the railway yard by 2027, which will include a passage connecting the Masaryčka building and the hotel, facilitating easier and more reliable accessibility across the district.
