Hotel Sax, 4 Star Hotel, Mala Strana - Little Quarter, Prague
 
 
The Hotel Sax has retained its classicist appearance, yet the building is originally medieval and dates from the 14th century, when it was owned by a blacksmith named Sax, after whom the hotel was named. In the past, the building also served as an orphanage (16th century) and a hospital for the poor (18th century). It then served as an apartment block, from the 19th century until 1994, when it was converted into a hotel.
 
Designed from the studio of the architects Nadi Sádovská and Jaromír Pitzinger, nowadays the interiors of the Hotel Sax will transport you to the 1950s, 60s, or 70s, which typically enjoyed freedom of design and especially the use of materials which the technological progress of the time allowed _ plastics and leatherette.
 
Throughout most of the hotel, originals are used that represent the period's cutting edge in global design (Pantone, Colani, Saarinen, Eames, etc.). This isn't just a current trend, but it is evidence of the quality of a design which has endured... In order to maintain the functionality of the hotel, certain individual items are manufactured in the retro style.
