CZECH INN €
1320/1540Kč, apt from 1650Kč; ; 4, 22)
The Czech Inn calls itself a hostel,
but the boutique label wouldn't be out of place. Everything seems sculpted by an in-
dustrial designer, from the iron beds to the brushed-steel flooring and minimalist
square sinks. The Czech Inn offers a variety of accommodation, from standard hostel
dorm rooms to good-value private doubles (with or without attached bathroom) and
apartments.
A bank of internet terminals in the lobby and an excellent buffet breakfast in the
adjoining bar-cafe round out the charms. The nearest metro station is 10 minutes on
foot or a short tram ride away.

suites on the top floor, one of which has a great view towards the castle.
