Prague Reviews

Every year, it seems, Christmas arrives earlier and earlier. Last year, the Christmas lights in our local shopping centre were switched on on the 6th of November (yes, November). Now, I love Christmas, but this was too much. Suddenly, the beaming fluorescent angels and tap-dancing reindeer were too much. I needed to escape. But I still had to ...  Read the complete review

There are few cities in the world where a short break is simply not enough. Prague falls in to this category, with 4 nights (5 days) rather than 2 nights (3 days) probably doing justice to this charismatic city. On arrival at the airport, we took a 30 minute or so taxi journey (equating to approximately GBP 20.00) to the main city. Shared ...  Read the complete review

I spent 6 days in Prague last year with my Fiancee. I feel it is the most romantic city in the world & can captivate visitors. We stayed close to Charles Bridge in the small hotel in the Little Quarter. This left us in walking distance of all the sights in central Prague. The hotel prices seemed to be close to general European prices, but ...  Read the complete review

I've done a far bit of travelling now and fianlly visited Prague for the first time earlier last year as it's somewhere I've wanted to go since I saw it in an INXS video in 1988!!! There really is something for everyone in Prague. There's plenty of museums, art galleries and music to satisfy any culture vulture. The ...  Read the complete review

I've just arrived back from a few days in the Golden City. i was on business so I only managed to get out and take a look at the place on Thurday evening. I'm so glad I did. What a fantastic, beautiful city. The buildings take your breath away. It's the first time I've been to this part of the world, but I've always held ...  Read the complete review

I was fortunate enough to visit Prague on an educational trip whilst studying for my degree. We travelled by coach, as this was naturally the most cost effective method for a group of students. HOW WE GOT THERE We travelled in February, which helped to reduce the cost even further. The journey over was horrendous, it took 2 days, ...  Read the complete review

DIARY Monday 29th March 1999 - Lift Off! So at some ungodly hour (before 7am is all I'll say) we dragged ourselves out of bed and into a taxi. Once heading towards Heathrow we realised two things. One, we'd left KL legend Dharmua Tharu's video camera in the flat and two, we didn't have enough money to pay for ...  Read the complete review

Fresh back from a 3-day weekend in Prague, and itching to go back already. Prague's pretty well covered on dooyoo already, but I loved the place so much I can't help myself. I must confess upfront that my trip was a prize from work, so the accommodation - the 5 star SAS Radisson, just off Wenceslas Square - was of a standard I ...  Read the complete review

I had a one day stop over in Prague on the way to and from cairo a couple of years ago. I didn't have any choice in the matter because of my flight times but it turned out to be one of the highlights of the trip. I was lucky in that I had an excellent tour guide in a friend who was workinng out there who met me both times. I found ...  Read the complete review

Prague is definitely one of the most attractive cities on the continent - eighteenth century architecture, the castle, the bridge, etc, etc - but the people really do leave a lot to be desired. Miserable, surly, unhelpful, bad-tempered - they make natives of Birmingham look like a bundle of laughs and I should know, I am one. The food is also ...  Read the complete review

I was lucky enough to win free flights to Prague last year, and how glad am I that I did! I would have not considered Prague in a city break destination previously, but having won the tickets meant I was going. Not knowing quite what to expect of an Eastern European city I was a little apprehensive. When I arrived, I was so ...  Read the complete review

Kafka hated Prague but never left. I loved it but only stayed a week. Maybe he just didn't get out enough.. I went and stayed with Czech and English friends in Prague - definitely a good plan in terms of beating the tourists and seeing things not in the guide books. One book which did help us, though, is called "Nothing to do ...  Read the complete review

I totally agree with everyone who says prague is a beutiful city. It is, the castle, rooftops and gorgeous riverside cannot be anything else. We spent a week in prague and easily filled every day with the sights and sounds of prague - theres plenty to do here. Its also a backpackers heaven in terms of accommodation - we found hostels no ...  Read the complete review

For the price of a ticket to Covent Garden, you can have a long weekend in prague and a visit to the Opera. I'm not an opera buff, and seeing La Traviata at the State Opera was my first time. So if you are unsure then a £6 ticket is a pretty low risk way of finding out if this is your thing! A cheap flight and hotel deal on teletext ...  Read the complete review

With its majestic architecture, friendly people, and cheap cost of living, Prague is truly a wonderful place to stay. With an almost limitless amount of museums and historic sites to keep the culture vultures happy, and a huge selection of bars, this city caters to everyones tastes. When the Czech Republic broke away from the Soviets, ...  Read the complete review

Prague has recently been the city to go to for a cheap holiday. No doubt the city is beautiful and unique, food and alcohol can be found in abundance and on top of that ..cheap! The city is packed during summer with lots of foreigners especially from England. However, unfortunately thats the worst time to go. Everybody in Prague is only ...  Read the complete review

The most delightful, unstressful and creative Christmas shopping I ever did was at the markets in Prague a few years ago. Well, that was the reason for going at that time of year. Of course, the opportunity to see one of the unsung jewels of Europe was high on my agenda. Yes, we did spend most of our time touristing, but the atmosphere was ...  Read the complete review

Prague is gorgeous. I could leave it at that, any criticisms I might make of it are irrelevant, and I can't believe anyone who went there would have anything but a positive experience. I'd heard that hotel and restaurant staff could be a bit slow and surly, but I didn't notice it (hey, I'm from the UK, I get slow and ...  Read the complete review

I was first dragged to Prague for a visit 10 years ago by a friend who was learning Czech. The city was just coming out of the days of communist rule following the Velvet Revolution (and was still of course in Czechoslovakia back then anyway.) We had an absolute whale of a time. The town had the feel of Victorian England. In the pilsner houses ...  Read the complete review
