    Just booked flight to Prague and place to stay - Airbnb - Dobrovskeho Prague 7.  Any input about location?

    We were looking into leaving Prague on sleeper car (train) on night of July 2 but if there is a bus we would definitely be interested!


    I'm in Prague 7 too. The indoor boulder (rock climbing) bar is near by, as well as the farmer's market at Hall 22 (Hala 22).

    A climbing bar? I don't usually drink while I climb, but I guess I could be persuaded.....

    The local-to-Prague-PJ fans would suggest to not stay near the O2, as there isn't much out there.

    Most people stay closer to the main part of Prague. See the first post for information about the general meeting pub and general accomodation.

    I have stayed in Prague a few times and I like the Old Town.

    I mainly drink coffee there and boulder.
    Send me a PM if you are interested in bouldering.
