Hostinné () is a town in Trutnov District in the Hradec Králové Region of the Czech Republic. It has about 4,200 inhabitants. It lies on the Elbe river. The historic town centre is well preserved and is protected as an urban monument zone.
==Etymology== The name was probably derived from the adjective hostinný ('hospitable') or hostinský ('guest's', related to guest). It is rather unlikely that the name was derived from the personal name Host. The German name Arnau can be translated as "Arn's floodplain".
