Prague from Prague to Amsterdam by train
Posted: Thu May 8, 2008 12:21 PM UTC
Hi!

I'm going to be in Prague for a few weeks soon. At the weekend I'm planning to visit Amsterdam. As far I understand a round flight to Ams and back to Prague will cost about 200 USD. Can a save money by traveling by train? or it will be just a slight economy? Please, advise me. Thanks in advance!

Prague Hotel Recommendations
Posted: Tue May 6, 2008 06:10 PM UTC
I know this question has been asked tons but there is too much info too look through. I will be in Prague for about two nights. Never been and not super keen on touristy areas but I am a tourist myself :)

Any, hotels of good value in a recommended area (not too expensive!)? Possibly near some decent nightlife (pubs/bars but not all night clubs) and also transit? I will be taking the train from prague to budapest after two or three days.

A few recommendations would help.

Prague Re: Hotel Anna or Claris Hotel?
Posted: Mon May 5, 2008 01:31 PM UTC
I know they are sister hotels and located within what appears to be a few blocks from each other. While both have the same rates and ammenities, is one more preferable? The Claris seems to have been recently renovated.
Does anybody have any feedback on these hotels? Trip advisor has given both good reviews.

Thanks,

Prague Using credit cards in Prague?
Posted: Sun May 4, 2008 09:50 PM UTC
Hello. I'm going to Prague for 5-6 days in the beginning of june.
Do many shops and restaurants accept credit cards and is it safe? I'm afraid of getting ripped. (I have both Visa and Mastercard)

I've used creditcards in both London and with no problems.

I also have another question: How well do the czech (the ones from Prague) speak english or german?

Prague From Prague to Paris by bus
Posted: Sun May 4, 2008 06:28 PM UTC
After reading most of the tips about transportation from Prague, I figured out that to get to Paris by night train would be too expensive and too much hassle to change all these trains in the middle of the night. Did anybody try to use Student Bus that leaves Prague at 23:30 and arrives at 5:50 in Paris? Do we need to make ticket reservation on-line? The word "student" makes me worry as in my mind it associates with something cheap and not comfortable. At my age of 40+ these are not my priorities anymore! Any feedback would be much appreciated!

Prague Accommodation Outside Central Prague
Posted: Fri May 2, 2008 10:22 PM UTC
Hi. I wonder if anyone could recommend any reasonable hotels on the outskirts of Prague or even in a town close to Prague.

We'll be travelling to Prague by car, and do not wish to take it into central Prague. Ideally we are looking for a hotel that is about 20 - 30 minutes from central Prague.

I'm probably asking for too much, but it would be good if the hotel was in walking distance (10 minutes or so) of a metro stop or station and in a safe area.

Many thanks

Prague Prague in 1.5 days - what to do?
Posted: Thu May 1, 2008 07:07 PM UTC
Hello VTmates,
I'll be spending only 1.5 days in Prague. I plan to visit Old Town, New Town, Charles Bridge, Prague Castle.

If there's more time, I'm thinking of going to Karlstejn castle - can somebody tell what's the cheapest way to go to Karlstejn from Old Town? How far is this place? Are visitors allowed to go inside the castle?

If you have suggestions on other better places to visit given my limited time, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!!

Prague First time traveling to Prague
Posted: Wed April 30, 2008 05:20 PM UTC
I have many questions about traveling to Prague at the end of July.
Does anyone have any feedback on the Hotel Anna? Is it centrally located and in walking distance to many of the sights? I saw it on-line and it looks charming, and the price was very reasonable. However, I could not find it on venere.com (It is part of Claris Hotel Chain). Should I be wary????

Next, my friend and I will be taking a train from Berlin to Prague. Is there direct rail service and if so, is it cheaper to purchase it on raileurope.com for 111 Euros or DB Bahn website? Will they send the ticket to US free of charge?

How far is Terezin from Prague? Is there a special tour that goes there?

The forum is extremely helpful in planning my trip and I thank you in advance for answering my
questions!

Prague Cheapest And Easiest Way To Prague
Posted: Tue April 29, 2008 04:25 PM UTC
Hello fellow VTers,
Can anyone kind enough to tell us the cheapest & easiest way to Prague from Vienna by train? How much does it cost and how long will it take? There are some useful tips in VT but I just wonder if there’s any latest way as things change so fast now. We found the deal posted by GyuriFT very informative but it’s not from Vienna.
Anyway we might overlook certain things even it’s already been publish:(
Any other info like budget accommodation or Halal food will also be greatly appreciated!

Should I spend a day in dresden, karlovy vary, Plzen or kutna Hora. Or should I just spend it in prague itself?

Prague Room with a View and a Terrace or Balcony
Posted: Fri April 25, 2008 07:14 PM UTC
I've looked through the hotel reviews but can't find what I'd like. Can anyone tell me if there is a hotel somewhere near the Prague Castle that has rooms with a view of the city and those rooms have either a terrace or a balcony large enough for 2 to sit out on?? Alternatively, if the hotel has a terrace open to all guests where you don't have to order drinks or meals. Quiet rooms are also a necessity. I am looking in the price range of around 300-350 Euros a night. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Prague time spent between Prague & Budapest?
Posted: Wed April 23, 2008 02:14 AM UTC
I have 11 days between arriving in Prague, and flying out of Budapest. How much time do you suggest in each place? Also debating stopping for a day or two between, like in Bratislavia, Slovakia. I would love any recs for budget accomodations in good locations as well as recs for areas or town to stay in as well as avoid. Also, how much is the train between the two? It was cheaper to fly from Nice to Prague - wondering if it will be the same to go from PRG-BUD. Thanks!

Prague Parking in Prague
Posted: Tue April 22, 2008 02:49 AM UTC
We will be coming from Frankfurt about December 10 to visit Prague for 3 days. We'd like to stay right in the centre of town and likely our hotel will not have parking. We have heard there is lots of theft of cars in Prague and so I'm a bit concerned about leaving a rental car. Can someone tell me about parking in the centre of the town and how concerned we should be about theft ? Is there secure parking anywhere ? I really am looking forward to our visit.

Hey how will the weather be about then ? Thanks for your help.
