Hotels in Prague

Prague has really come into its own since the Czech Republic joined the EU and city breaks to Prague are now some of the most popular and affordable. This is a city best explored on foot because despite its plethora of museums and galleries, it is in its cobbled streets and squares that you'll really make the most of your Prague holiday.

Travelling to Prague usually means a cheap flight but the city now has a bit of a reputation for being overpriced and Prague hotels have not escaped this stereotype. Whilst it is true that tourist-trap bars around Wenceslas square charge 5 a beer, Prague hotels do cater for a wide range of budgets. It is still possible to find cheap hotels in Prague that are both good quality and in a decent location.

This great city is carved in two by the River Vltava. On one side is Wenceslas Square and Old Town Square both lined with bars and restaurants, usually of the overpriced variety mentioned above. However, if you cross Charles Bridge to the Prague Castle side of the river, there are much more affordable places to dine and quench your thirst making travel to Prague more agreeable.

Seeing as Prague has a long history for architecture, many of the hotels in Prague boast extraordinarily beautiful facades. The interior of a typical Prague hotel can vary from chic and modern to traditional and grand and the exterior does not usually give away any secrets as to what the inside of a hotel in Prague contains.

Prague travel will erode any stereotypes you have of Eastern Europe. It is modern, cultured and stylish and holidays in Prague are luxurious, long-weekends of people watching and cultural awakening.
