Piano Nobile at Villa Richter

Situated on the hillside just below Prague Castle, Piano Nobile at Villa Richter presents exquisite international cuisine and fine wines in a delightful setting, with magnificent views over Prague.

Piano Nobile is located on the top floor of Villa Richter, a classicist summerhouse dating from 1836. The villa itself is set amongst the extensive vines of one of Bohemia's oldest vineyards (AD 908).

The whole estate, including the villa, the restaurants, the vineyards and the garden terraces, have been meticulously restored. This rural ideal offers panoramic views over the Lesser Town (Malá Strana), the Vltava River and the Old Town, yet is only a few minutes walk from the metro and the Lesser Town.

Piano Nobile presents a small, perfectly balanced menu. Restaurant dishes are well-prepared and presented, and range from lamb tenderloin and fillet mignon to sea bass in pepper sauce.

Desserts include a traditional apple strudel and Panna cotta served with wild berries.

Around 2500 bottles of wine are stored in their 'Wine Chest', embedded in the villa's bedrock mass. This includes a selection of the finest Czech wines, plus some excellent International wines.

In warmer months, guests have the choice of dining outside on one of several terraces offering fine views over the city.

Villa Richter has all the charm of Prague's old world. Its vineyards date from the 10th century and were said to have been tended by St. Wenceslas himself. Stroll amongst the vines before dinner, then enjoy the setting of the villa and the fine cuisine.

The other restaurant at Villa Richter is Piano Terra.


Piano Nobile at Villa Richter is a ideal for groups celebrating a special occasion and for business dinners. Advance reservations are essential.
