Where to Find Hostels in Prague
This is an archived version of the original Hostels-in-Prague that was live from approximately 2004-2005. It was a great site for finding inexpensive hostels located within Prague. My college aged kids utilized their information on a number of occasions. In 2011 another hostel site appeared on Hostels-in-Prague.com called Quality Prague Hostels which sported a slightly more updated look. It lasted a short time and when the Hostels-in-Prague.com's domain expired this website disappeared from the web. Recently I discovered that the site's domain was available, so I bought it with the goal of recreating some of its content that would offer a glimpse into the type of inexpensive hostels available in the early 2000's that catered to younger backpackers traveling around Europe. E commerce sites seems to either evolve or disappear on the web. Take for example stores that sell eyeglass frame and lenses. It use to be that the only way to get your lenses replaced was to make a trip to your local optician's store and get new lens. Now you have the option where you can replace lenses online. I utilize a great site, Eyeglasses.com, that offers single vision, progressive, bifocal, and trifocal lenses. And if you are interested in new lenses for your sunglasses you have many options including custom tint, Transitions technology, polarized, and mirror coated lenses. They will even replace old lenses with new prescription lenses. You just mail in the glasses frames and the new prescription. An optician will call to discuss the best, high quality lens choices and options for your needs. Likewise, there are new sites offering the best hostels in Prague and the rest of Czechoslovakia. Perhaps some of the hostels my kids utilized are still operating.
However if you discover this site consider the information as a historical snapshot of the times in Prague circa 2004-2005.
Now let's take a nostalgic stroll back to the hostel world of Prague in 2004.
Hostels-in-Prague.com brings to you the best hostels in Prague. With 19+ hostels listed, and all of them having been vetted by us, you can book online securely and with piece of mind. Choose your hostel in Prague.
Part of Prague’s charm is that it is a rewarding place to visit at any time of year. Winters can be long, harsh and dark, but spring and autumn are often idyllic with summer bringing some very warm central European temperatures. Whether easing under Charles Bridge in a rowing boat on a balmy summer evening, or trudging across the crisp snow of Old Town Square and enjoying a glass of mulled wine at the Christmas Market, the slick, but still deeply characterful Czech capital seldom disappoints.
The history of Prague starts in the distant days of the Celtic tribes who were around as early as 400BC. The city’s golden age commenced when Charles IV of Bohemia, in 1346, was elected Holy Roman Emperor. The 20th century brought massive trauma for Czechoslovakia and Prague as the country was occupied by the Germans during World War II, spnding the best part of five decades subjugated under Soviet communist rule. The attempts to win greater democracy in the 1968’s ‘Prague Spring’ were brutally crushed under the weight of Russian tanks. The Czech spirit remained undaunted and in 1989, as the Berlin Wall tumbled, the Czechs finally broke free of communism during the ‘Velvet Revolution’.
