"howard" wrote in message ... Anyone recommend a cheap hotel in Prague ? Does such a thing exist in Prague? I suppose it depends on what you are thinking of as cheap? There are two Ibis hotels in Prague charging about 60 Euro in the Winter and 90 in the summer, I wouldn't call that cheap (though this is not to say that I wouldn't pay it) - you'll get a 4/5 star hotel at that price in the rest of CZ. I can't make any recommendations, when I stayed in Prague I got a private room from the agency at the station (having turned down the offer of some no star hotel at the edge of the city for more than I thought reasonable) Also a 'must do' itinerary for the rest of the country ? Cesky Krumlov (do a search on google, comes up often) Bohemian Paradise (Cesky Raj) stunning rock formations, tough without a car though. Moravian Karst (if you like caves). Many say Telc, though I wasn't impressed (overly restored IMHO). Karlovy Vary, the original bits, but unfortunately there's some 60's infill which is awful. Karlstejn Castle, though only the setting is interesting. Inside is a complete WOT IMHO (and that of others I'm told). This is a very short train ride (20 km) from Prague and you will find hotels here at a quarter of the Prague price. I'm going for 6 days. You're not going to do much of an itinery then are you? tim Howard. (reply to: howy.stone at virin.net ) |

We found the Hotel Sandra to be both inexpensive and spotlessly clean.
It's about 100 meters from the Opatov underground station and about 10-15 minutes from the central train station but for less than US$40/night for a double w/bath (last year) a good compromise. Arrangements for this and a host of other inexpensive hotels can be made at the tourist office at the central train station. You will also find lots of individuals in the central train station offering private accommodations in all price ranges. Many will have pictures of their accommodation and most will also be happy take you to see them firsthand. If you want to stay in the areas around Wenceclas (sp?) this might be your best bet. As for "must do" outside of Prague, Ceske Krumlov (very touristy but still a great place), Karlovy Vary (expensive!) and my personal favorite Ceske Budjovice (home of the original Budweiser) Enjoy "howard" wrote in message ...

I wonder why the boat hotel is never mentioned. I think it's
called Albatro Botel or something like albatros - easily findable site of their own on the web. Spartan, cheap, pretty well located, and a delightful environment if on the northern side of boat. It's the turnaround area of tourboats, so you have live music coming and going half the day. |

they are called Botel
Albatros is one of them. i guess the only problem is that beds are small.. but the water of the river may help you sleep better. "jt" ha scritto nel messaggio om...

Though I think the name of the hotel was called the Opatov when we visited in 1996. Primary advantage is good location to Opatov subway station. Though we enjoyed central Prague, we also enjoyed the more "local" color of resturants away from the center (also less expensive). We had two triple rooms, and would stay there again. We stayed in an apartment in central Prague (1 block off Narodny) in 1993 which had since gone condo, great location, but I enjoyed taking the subway (almost had the station names memorized)...but watch our for pickpockets especially in tourist locations. We also enjoyed Olomouc, and Cesky Krumlov....10 years ago exactly this week, our 1st trip there. -- --------- Tom Flynn I speak only for myself -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |
