Prague, anyone been?

Guys,

Some friends and I are planning a trip to Prague in mid November.

Can anyone on here give us an idea of some must visit places, including good bars/clubs etc. and day activities.

Also, can anyone recommend any cheap accomodation for 4 adults? We've found 4 bed apartments for £60 each for 7 nights, but not sure how nice these will be!

Any advice or suggestions welcome....

Cheers

Tim

Not sure if Irish Tim is online these days but he's a bit of an expert in Prague.

As is Enda O Coineen !

Seems to be an exciting destination and mebbe a photographer's paradise?

now , i have been here,,
i went in jan, effing cold. like -18 during the day.
great city, lots to see. try to stay ion the old town square.

book your hotel through- www.travelcook.com
contact Tomas.

i tried to cheap out too much at 1st and booked accomodation through another uk site. dont. you will need a local firm , I found, cos when you pitch up at the airport, all the writing is in - like Russian, or something. in the end i booked through these guys. they will organize taxis etc if you ask them and organise tours etc (which you will need or you hotel will) Dont stay on Wencelsas Square - too commercial. any other info please pm. great bars, great place to visit without doubt.

Very useful advice

The only two things I know about Prauge:

How to say (but not spell): "Wen farht die nexata Zug nach Prague" (when is the next train to Prague in German)

And there are no McDonalds in Prauge.

We had a lecture on this yesterday with a lecturer who we are trying to dis-credit as useless so this will go against him!

to find undesecrated spots... is undesecrated a word? You know what I mean..

Old 'n grumpy? Moi?....
