Again, if you're in Prague for one night and want to walk out the door to pedestrian access to the old town you're marginally better off in the Old Town Hilton, with its tiny lounge located off the main lobby. Otherwise, as a Diamond the Prague Hilton is far superior, with a 6-20 minute (I won't quibble) additional walk.

I can't compare the 2 properties having never stayed at the newer Old Town Hilton.
I would say that Bohemia Sekt is fairly ubiquitous in Prague. I assume that the Exec Rooms are very similar to other rooms, they were pleasant enough but nothing special. The lounge is also nothing special IMHO it used to have a certain intimacy but now feels as intimate as a McDonalds or large Starbucks.
No staff stood out on my recent visit, I found the whole experience rather bland to be honest. Mrs LoM and I really did like Cloud 9 though a rather cool concept presumably following on from the success of Cloud 23 in Manchester.
We only had a one nights stay and to be fair we had a basket of fruit and half a bottle of drinkable red wine as a welcome gift in our room too (which we didnt get to drink in the end).
