Hotel Kupa, Budget accommodation building in Jižní Město, Czech Republic

Ubytovna Kupa consists of two high-rise panel buildings near Háje metro station in Prague's Jižní Město. The taller tower reaches 81 metres across 23 floors, the second has 19, and a bridge passage links them near the top. Large clocks sit on the taller building.

Ubytovna Kupa was built in 1980 as staff housing for the state road and railway construction company SSŽ, which owned it until 1990 and lodged its employees and the workers who built it. Ownership passed briefly to the Ústřední motoklub, then in 2004 to the Ministry of Finance. In 2016 both towers were insulated with new facades for 30 million crowns.

The name Kupa comes from the architects' original design: a domed, kupovitý shape that was dropped to save money, so the nickname stuck. The taller of the two towers, 81 metres and 23 floors, carries large clocks at the top; a bridge passage links both buildings near their upper floors.

The building sits near Opatov and Háje metro stations on Line C, which provide direct connections to other areas. These stations make it simple to reach local shops and Prague's city center.

The name Kupa comes from the architects' original design: a dome-like (kupovitý) shape meant to soften the panel-building look, abandoned to save money. The two towers, nicknamed Prague's Twins, are linked by a bridge passage, and the taller one carries a large clock.
