Checking In: Your Guide to Prague Hotels

Charles Bridge, Prague Castle, Orloj, Dancing House, Petřín or Vyšehrad. These are the most famous and at the same time the most beautiful monuments of the capital of the Czech Republic. Whether you are attracted to Prague by its good food and drink, a unique historical atmosphere, or perhaps a popular nightlife, you must answer one fundamental question before your arrival. Where to stay in Prague? Read more about accommodation and find out our tips for good, cool, and best hotels in Prague.

Where to stay in Prague?

First of all, we should answer the following question: In which part of the city should you look for a hotel? Most tourists want to live in the center, and if this is also your case, take a look at the offers in Old Town. You will have the Old Town Square, the Jewish Quarter, and walks around the Vltava River within walking distance.

The Malá Strana district is often referred to as the baroque pearl of Prague, and the locals call it the most romantic location. It offers wonderful views, and you will be close to the Charles Bridge, the Prague Castle, Petřín, or the famous Lennon Wall.

A slightly less touristy area is the New Town, which is still very close to favorite places such as Wenceslas Square, Dancing House, the National Museum or the National Theater. In a few minutes by walking, you will also come to the central transport hubs – the Florenc bus station and the main train station.

Would you like to stay in a quieter area? Try the Vinohrady district. You can reach the city center in a few minutes by public transport and enjoy a lot of interesting architecture in the surroundings. Vinohrady is renowned for its restaurants, cafes, and bars.

Which parts of Prague are not the best for accommodation?

If you are planning to run around the sights all day and want to sleep in peace to gain energy, avoid the hotels on Wenceslas Square. It is a really busy place at night.

In case you plan to go out for fun and return to your hotel late at night, the area around the main train station will not be a good choice. It is not a directly dangerous location, but if you can, it is better to avoid it during the night. Read more about how safe it is to travel to Prague.

As a tourist, you are probably only going to Prague for a few days, which is why it is not worth living in the outskirts of the city. Traveling on public transport would waste too much time and Uber or Bolt would be expensive.

Hotel, hostel or botel?

There is something for everyone in Prague. Low-cost travelers will appreciate hostels with rooms for several guests and shared bathrooms and toilets, which cost a few euros per night. Tourists arriving by car can use the services of motels located right next to roads and highways around the city.

You can also choose from a wide range of hotels, including the most luxurious ones with their own spa. But we also have a few tips for those of you who are looking for a non-traditional style of accommodation and would like, for example, to spend the night on a boat in the middle of the city.

Where to look for hotels in Prague?

The easiest way to find your dream hotel in Prague is to go to Google or Google maps and search by location. If you are looking for private accommodation and want to book the entire property, the good news is that Airbnb works in Prague.
