Prague

At the geographical heart of Europe, Prague’s beautiful cityscape has been carved and sustained by a variety of emperors, artists and religious communities, from the Gothic exuberance of its castle and cathedral, to the dignity of the medieval Jewish Cemetery, and the 19th-century opulence of the “new” town. Under Communist rule, Prague was off the tourist map, but since 1989 the city has seen a surge of visitors eager to take in this spectacular city.

  • Lovely, modern hotel. Big spacious rooms, with a contemporary feel. Great buffet breakfast, with lots of choice!

    Brilliant value for money.

  • This antiques shop specializes in books, manuscripts and prints that look like they could have been used by 17th-century astronomer Johannes Kepler when he lived next door. Collectors will want to have their credit cards handy.

  • This serious collector’s shop specializes in prints and small decorative items such as clocks and lamps. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, just ask and they’ll point you in the right direction.

  • Dvořák’s works, such as his Slavonic Dances , regularly incorporate folk music. He composed his final symphony From the New World while he was director of the National Conservatory in New York City.

  • This spacious, one-bedroom flat on a tree-lined Vinohrady street is tastefully appointed with simple furniture. The bright kitchen has all the utensils you need, a stocked refrigerator and a washing machine.

  • This booking agency offers three apartments at this address near metro and tram stops. Fully equipped kitchens, TVs and carpets help make guests comfortable.

  • Four romantic and newly renovated apartments on a palace-lined Malá Strana street, each with beautiful painted wooden beams, large windows, antique furniture and modern baths.

  • Art Deco

    Enter this shop filled with antique furnishings, vintage clothing and one-of-a-kind knickknacks and you’ll feel you’ve stepped back into the First Republic. Outfit yourself in Jazz-Age style, right down to the spats and cigarette holder, or dress up your parlour with an Art Nouveau clock or cordial set.

  • Artel

    Artel's flagship store is situated in the heart of Old Town. While the highlight is a dovecote wall filled with the company's exquisite crystal (mouth-blown and hand-engraved in the Czech Republic), the boutique also features books, jewelry, one-of-a-kind design objects and "found" objects--from antique books to toys and Bohemian textiles.

  • Bakeshop Praha

    Grab a bag of rugalach , brownies or other mouth-watering treats for on-the-go nourishment, or lunch on an egg-salad sandwich and coffee. Salads and quiches also to take away.
