Prague, Czech Republic Hotels and Apartments

Went to Prague for a long weekend (4 days - which I think is abit excessive, 2 days/max 3 should be more than enough for Prague). I had such a hard time looking for reasonably priced hotel. Comparing to the others who\'ve commented, I didn\'t have as good a deal as them since I went there round xmas time. It costed me 92euro per night for a double \"category A\" room. You can pay the rent in euro or czech koruna as you wish.

The room is spacious, basic and clean. Though, as the others have mentioned, the bed is quite hard, the pillow is low, the towels offered are small and there is no kettle/tv in the room. Definitely it\'s a good idea to bring your own if you have a big fuss about pillow height. Also the heater made the room VERY VERY dry. We\'ve tried soaking our own towels + the two towels they offered in water before going to bed and they were COMPLETELY dry when we get up.

We got to the hotel by bus 119 from airport and take the metro to Namesti Miru. The whole journey is probably around an hour? The hotel is very close to the metro station which is handy. We bought a 3 day travel card which I think isn\'t quite necessary since Prague is quite small afterall and single tickets are cheap anyway. The hotel is in ~7-10min walking distance to the National Museum and Wenceslas Square(watch out pickpocket there) and maybe 20min to Old Town Square.

This hotel isn\'t bad. It has all you really need. Most importantly it\'s clean. I would recommend it to anyone who is going there in low season when the rooms are at wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy lower rate.

This hotel is in a great location, 8 mins walk from Wenceslas Square, but only 1 min walk from a picturesque square containing a church well lit up at night and some restaurants and bars.

Locally to the hotel you can get beer (pivo - Pilsner is best) for less than 30Kc (80p), 20Kc (50p) at the lowest I saw in a nearby theater converted into a casino. Dont pay more than 30Kc for a beer.

Restaurants nearby we highly recommend Grosetto Pizzeria for good atmosphere, fantastic food and wine at great prices (£12 for two main courses, a side course and 2 x 500ml of wine) there is an Italian opposite side of the church which is furnished better and is more classier for similar prices which is also top notch.

Cheers is a pub recommended on Trip Advisor but I have to confess its nice inside, but very pricey. You are far better sticking to Popo Cafe Petl ([--]), also very close by to Penzion (Pension) 44. This place is brilliant. Atmosphere one of the best I\'ve experienced in Prague, and very much a young people\'s bar with lots of smoke, music and cheap drinks. Beers are reasonable and cocktails are a maximum of 89Kc (£2.39).

Pub opposite previously the \"dog\'s bo**ocks\" is good for beer and duck meals, but steer clear of their burgers and chicken kebabs.

Overall the hotel is better than you\'ll probably think when you first walk in, the location more than makes up for the poor decor of the hotel. The beds are firm yet comfy, and its warm inside. Its basic but this hotel can be had for £24 per night, it\'s worth it.

Rooms - basic but clean, some are v big, some with TVs, bathroom was nice.
Reception area - Poor, looks worse than it is though.
Lift - has to be seen to be believed. Scary at first but fun.
Beer - Pilsner Urquell, dont pay more than 30Kc. Beer is the best in the world.
