Destination.sherryTake

Stay in Staré Město (Old Town) or Malá Strana (Lesser Town) — both are walkable to everything and beautiful. Avoid Wenceslas Square hotels — louder, less charming, same price.

Destination.moneyTips

  • 1Pilsner Urquell on tap is cheaper than mineral water at most restaurants (~80 CZK / €3.20).
  • 2Lunch menu (polední menu, 11:00–14:00) at proper restaurants: 180–250 CZK for soup + main.
  • 3Avoid "tourist trap" restaurants on Old Town Square — walk one block to side streets, prices drop 40%.

当地交通

  • 172h transit pass 330 CZK (€13) covers all metro, tram, bus, funicular — the best deal for 3-day visits.
  • 2Václav Havel airport → centre: Bus 119 to Nádraží Veleslavín then Metro A, 60 CZK total, 35 min — taxi is 700 CZK.
  • 3Walk between Old Town, Lesser Town, and the Castle — 30 min of pure postcard, the metro skips the best parts.

Destination.mostCommonMistake

Booking near the main train station (Hlavní Nádraží) to save €20/night. The area is rough at night and you save 15 min walk, lose the entire neighborhood charm.
