a&o Prague Metro Strizkov Prague Hostel Review and Information

Prague is very small so luckily the slightly on the outskirts location doesn't matter! Metro is a ten minute walk and doesn't take long at all to get into the centre of Prague, plus the trams are 24 hour. Hostel was excellent quality, super clean and overall a very pleasant experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to stick to a budget. - Anonymous

The Location

Strizkov
This suburb of Prague is to the northeast of Old Town and has connections with public transportation.
What's Nearby?
Surrounding the hostel is a residential area with shops and restaurants, and of course, the nearby metro station that provides access to the city center. Also nearby are the exhibition grounds, the O2 stadium, Hole Ovice showgrounds, and several parks and playgrounds.
Nearby Transportation
It takes about 5 minutes to walk to the metro station from the hostel through some nice parks. From here the train takes around 10 minutes to get to the city center on line C.

Several buses also run near the hostel, but these routes take much longer to get into the city.

Staff

The staff is friendly, professional, and keeps the place clean. This a&o hostel is large - and it is well organized like a hotel. Don't expect the staff to be your best friends like at some other hostels, but they are on top of any issues to keep the hostel running well.

Heads Up

You have to pay extra for bed sheets and towels, so take this into account with the price.

The main concerns at this hostel are it's hotel-like feel (but many guests love that part about it) and the location is not in central Prague.
