The Hotel is situated in Vinohrady, a beautiful part of Prague next to the historic heart of the city. Students will have easy access to the Old Town by inexpensive metropolitan transport system (tram or metro) or by taxi.

Meals

Meals will include breakfasts served in the hotel restaurant and dinners. Students will be responsible for their own lunches. Students can choose from many options for lunch. There are ubiquitous McDonalds, KFC, and other fast food restaurants here, as well as other international cuisines. But we advise you to try traditional Czech food. Food in the Czech Republic is delicious and reasonably priced (an average lunch meal with main dish, side dish, drink, and tip costs around 5 EUR). A variety of dining options surround the Institute’s venue and there are a number of excellent restaurants in the city. There are also grocery stores located near the hotel.
