This branch of the a&o chain is in a large high-rise building on the outskirts of Prague's city center. It is well connected by public transport, and also has parking for cars and buses. With plenty of room for everyone, including couples, families, and large groups (such as school groups), this hostel is a good choice for those looking for budget accommodations with modern comforts and a safe environment. The cafeteria serves food for everyone, and the large common spaces are great areas to relax and chat with other guests.

The Location

Malesice

This suburban area to the east of central Prague is only 20 minutes from Old Town via public transportation.

What's Nearby?

This suburban area just outside of Prague's city center has some restaurants and shops, but nothing of particular interest for a tourist. It's well connected with public transportation, though. A few restaurants can be found within the surrounding blocks, as well as some parks, a grocery store, and some schools.

Nearby Transportation

Just a few blocks to the south is a tram line that runs on a major route into Prague's city center. From here you can be in the heart of Prague in about 20 minutes or less.

Amenities

In addition to the typical amenities you find at hostels, you'll also find some unique offerings as this is a large hostel with a hotel-like vibe. They have a communal kitchen for cooking your own meals. They also have plenty of laundry machines. The large cafeteria is great, too. And if you need to drive here, you can park. With wheelchair accessible rooms and an elevator, everyone is welcome. And with an area of lockers (in addition to the storage in the rooms), you can store your valuables here easily as well.
