"A Stalinist monstrosity just a few years back, the Jalta is now positively vibrant, down to the authentic Warhol print of Franz Kafka in the lobby."
Fodor's
"The Jalta is arguably the smartest hotel on central Wenceslas Square, with a historically protected facade that dates from the 1950s in the style of Socialist Realist."
