Mountain Hotel Desítka, Mountain hotel in Černá hora, Czech Republic

Mountain Hotel Desítka sits at the summit of Černá hora and offers rooms for two to four guests, each with a washbasin and access to shared bathrooms on every floor. The building provides sleeping capacity for roughly 100 people total and sits very close to the cable car and ski lift area.

The lower Volská bouda burned down after a lightning strike in 1927, while Czechoslovak soldiers from Pardubice were lodged there building a material cableway for the Černá hora chairlift. Between 1934 and 1935 Jan Černý, manager of the Sokolská bouda, built the hotel on that site; Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk and Edvard Beneš later slept in its presidential suite. Before Christmas 1944 the SS seized it as a sabotage training centre.

The name Desítka ("ten") comes from Prague 10, which has owned the building since December 2008 and runs health stays there for primary school pupils and seniors. The original name, Černý a Schwarzschlag Baude, combined builder Jan Černý's surname with the German name of the meadow, Schwarzschlag.

The hotel stands 200 m from the upper station of the Černohorský expres cable car, reached on foot by the path across Volská louka. The Zvonečková asphalt road branches near Hoffmanova bouda and doubles as cycle route K19A. Yellow-marked trails arrive from Černý Důl and from Velká Úpa via Vlašské Boudy and Černá bouda. The Sport I and Sport II ski lifts are next to the building.

The hotel roof carries a DAB+ digital radio transmitter (Teleko multiplex) broadcasting Czech Radio Hradec Králové since September 2012, with a reach of 160 km across parts of the Hradec Králové, Pardubice, Central Bohemian and Liberec regions.
