Lonely Planet Review

Quotes The hostel is all on one level, with a variety of rooms from basic dorms to self-contained apartments radiating off a large central garden, giving the place a peaceful, cottagey feel. Dorms, sleeping between six and 10 people in bunk beds, are the basic, functional spaces you would expect, but they are spotlessly clean. The hostel has no double beds, and all other rooms have single beds only. The apartments have en suites.

How To Get There

From the metro station I.P.Pavlova (red line / C) after you get off the main escalator take the exit on left - walk a few metres to traffic lights on SOKOLSKA street - cross the road and turn left. Then take the first turning right onto NA BOJISTI street and at the street s end turn left onto KE KARLOVU and walk straight on. The hostel is no.7 on the right. Be welcome at Hostel U MELOUNU. From the Airport (Letiste Praha-Ruzyne) We recommend this company AAA taxi - from Prague just dial 222 333 222 they speak English, you can order taxi by phone. They ll come in 10-15 minutes to pick you up. Price with this company is about 600,- czk. There is also shuttle service company - CEDAZ - you can go with them, they have little bit lower prices then taxi because you share a minibus with other people. Or if you take a cab in front of arrival hall on the street, before you get in the car ask for the price, because some companies or independent taxis are very expensive. About your return way to the airport ask at the reception desk. We can order a taxi cab for you by phone. They usually come in 10 - 15 minutes. or by public transport directions are: take bus 119 and go to the final station 'DEJVICKA' - then take the metro to station MUZEUM, change the line A to red line C and go to I.P.Pavlova - then follow the direction above.

Author Tip

U Melounu is in a quiet, cobbled, historic district of Prague, facing the old Maternity Hospital. The Dvorák Museum is a few doors along, while the lovely Charles University Botanic Garden is a 5min walk to the west. There are a few pubs and simple restaurants in the area, and many more in Vinohrady, which is just 10min eastwards.
