New STAGES HOTEL Prague next to O2 arena becomes a part of Marriott´s Tribute Portfolio

Prague, 26. 4. 2021 – Bestsport, a.s. entered into a franchise agreement with Marriott International, Inc. for its new STAGES HOTEL Prague. The agreement was signed on April 24, 2021.

O2 Arena

O2 arena is one of the most advanced multipurpose venues in Europe. With a capacity of over 20,000, it is the largest arena in the Czech Republic. It is adjacent to O2 universum, a multifunctional congress centre that hosts events for the public and corporate clients. Together with STAGES HOTEL Prague, they offer integrated facilities and high-quality services for organisers and attendees of popular concerts, sports events, conferences, and corporate gatherings.

O2 Arena

Last year, O2 arena welcomed over 1.1 million spectators, making 2025 its second most successful season. A total of 100 music, sports, and other events took place in the multifunctional hall. In 2025, the arena also recorded the highest attendance ever for a single event – a concert by Billie Eilish, which was attended by 20,209 spectators.

As the largest indoor arena in the Czech Republic, O2 arena systematically develops modern, technology-driven, and sustainable operations. In 2025, the arena focused on further enhancing the customer experience and improving operational efficiency through the introduction of a cashless payment system and the completion of the new O2 arena mobile app.

The development of in-house catering services also continued. Besides eliminating transportation costs, this model provides greater control over quality and product range, while improving the cost-efficiency of catering services.

O2 Universum

O2 universum, a multifunctional congress centre, concluded its sixth season with record-breaking attendance, welcoming more than 300,000 visitors. Last year, this modern complex hosted nearly 200 public and corporate events.

Of the musical events, the double concert by Ben Cristovao and Sofian Medjmedje attracted the most attention, followed by performances by Stein27 and Calum Scott. In addition to live concerts, the traditional annual gastronomic events and festivals once again generated strong interest and sales.

STAGES HOTEL Prague

STAGES HOTEL Prague maintained solid performance in 2025, exceeding forecasts and retaining its position among the leading properties within Marriott’s Tribute Portfolio in the EMEA region. The hotel strengthened its long-term commitment to sustainability by earning the prestigious Green Key certification, underscoring its dedication to responsible hospitality and environmental stewardship.

In 2025, the hotel ranked as the top-performing Tribute Portfolio property in the EMEA region in overall guest satisfaction. It also achieved exceptional results in key categories such as Cleanliness, Food & Beverage satisfaction, and Elite Member Appreciation, confirming its standing among the highest-rated hotels within the brand.
