Serviced Apartments

Written by admin

A good and usually cheaper alternative to hotels are serviced apartments. Prices are very similar to 2 or 3 star hotels, although cheap and popular, they may be some distance from the centre. It is a quite a new trend that lots of visitors prefer to stay in short-term rented apartments or private flats and thus the number of private rooms to rent in Prague has grown significantly.

A good and usually cheaper alternative to a hotel is serviced apartment. Prices are very similar to 2 or 3-star hotels, although cheap and popular, they may be some distance from the centre. Private rooms in serviced apartments start at about 1000 CZK per night, usually excluding breakfast. It is quite a new trend that lots of visitors prefer to stay in short-term rented apartments or private flats and thus the number of private rooms to rent in Prague has grown significantly. Families with children and larger groups especially appreciate this type of accommodation if they want to stay under one roof as some apartments can accommodate up to 12 people. Also, people searching for a cosy and well-equipped place (generally all apartments have cooking facilities) where they can do almost everything by themselves will like them. Most apartments (except some hotel apartments) do not have a reception or room service to deal with your needs. On the other hand, you will definitely get more privacy and better value for your money. All you have to do is pick up a key to the flat or apartment and return the key at the end of your stay.

Bedding

Frustration, thy name is shopping for bedding in the Czech Republic! Because beds with two single mattresses pushed together are more common than a double one, comforters, sheets, and duvet covers are oddly sized. The dimensions for bedding for a single mattress are approximately 200 x 80, 90, or 100; for two single mattresses pushed together dimensions are 200 x 160, 180, or 200.
