Frommer's Review
With its jarring 1980s galleria style, the Hilton looks like a huge ice cube outside and a greenhouse inside. The guest rooms are relatively cushy and functional, somewhat like those in an upscale U.S. motel. The building is packed with amenities that include a tennis club, pool, fitness center, and casino. The 700-plus rooms make this place (originally launched by former state travel wonks Cedok, but now run by Hilton) a natural choice for the largest conferences and conventions. Then-U.S. President Clinton and his entourage took over this place during his well-staged 1994 visit. The location just outside the city center isn't ideal.
Facilities:
Cafe/restaurant; indoor swimming pool; putting greens; health club; sauna; concierge; car rental; business center; 24-hr. room service; massage; laundry; dry cleaning; casino

| Frommer's Prague and the Best of the Czech Republic, 7th Edition | |
| 0 stars | Frommer's Recommended | |

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
