In-Depth Information
Sleeping
Prague offers a wide range of accommodation options, from cosy,
romantic hotels set in historic town houses to luxurious interna-
tional chain hotels, and from budget hostels and pensions to
sharply styled boutique hotels. Meanwhile, more and more travel-
lers are discovering the pleasures of renting an apartment in
Prague.
Room Rates & Seasons
A double room in a midrange hotel in central Prague costs around 4000Kč (€160) in
high season; outside the centre, this might fall to about 3000Kč. Top-range hotels cost
from 4000Kč up, with the best luxury hotels charging 6000Kč and more. Budget op-
tions charge less than 2000Kč for a double room.
Note that some midrange and top-end hotels quote rates in euros. At these hotels you
can pay cash in Czech crowns if you like, but the price will depend on the exchange
rate on the day you settle the bill.
The rates quoted here are for the high season, which generally covers April to June,
September and October, and the Christmas/New Year holidays. July and August are
midseason, and the rest of the year is low season, when rates can drop by 30% or 40%.
Even high-season rates can be inflated by up to 15% on certain dates, notably at
New Year, Easter, during the Prague Spring festival, and at weekends (Thursday to
Sunday) in May, June and September.
Apartments
The cost of a short-term stay in a self-catering apartment is comparable with a
midrange hotel room, and means minimal transport costs, access to cheap local food,
and the freedom to come and go as you like. Typical rates for a two-person apartment
with a combined living room/bedroom, bathroom, TV and kitchenette range from
around 2000Kč per night in the outer suburbs, to around 3500Kč or 4500Kč for an
apartment near the Old Town Square.
