Prague from the rooftops

What a fantastic place! We stayed at the Majestic Plaza which is a few minutes' walk from Wenceslas Square. The rooms were a great size, we had a triple room. The room was very large with plenty of space between each bed. We had 3 full size single beds.

There are a few restaurants and shops in the immediate vicinity of the hotel, but in a 5 minute walk you're on Wenceslas square which is great for shopping…Primark, C&A, M&S, sweet shops, coffee shops, nightclubs, restaurants, everything!

From here you can walk to Old Town Prague in around 10-15 minutes. This is the main area where you'll find the historic sites and more restaurants, shops, bars.

There are many roof top bars and cafes, I would highly recommend these. The views are fantastic. We spent one evening in cloud9 which is at the top of the Hilton hotel, the views are incredible! We also went to the glass bar which is at the top of the dancing house, here you can go outside to get a close up view of the city then head into the bar for a drink or two. The last rooftop we visited was the Bubble Point View which is at the top of the hotel U Prince, gorgeous daytime views. When you buy a drink you are able to enjoy these views for free.

Prague is full of so much history, the buildings are beautiful. The gothic tower, Dancing House and the Astronomical clock were some of my favourites. If you head over Charles Bridge you'll be able to see the narrowest street in Mala Strana which is traffic light controlled! The John Lennon memorial wall and Prague Palace.

Walking around Prague is very easy, lots to look at along the way. You can also get around via the metro and the tram. We didn't go on the metro but we did use the tram. You buy a ticket based on the duration you'll be using the tram for rather than where you're going to. They offer tickets from 30 minutes up to days.

Food choices are varied, with restaurants like the hard rock café and McDonalds you'll be able to stick to home comforts or experience something more authentically local with the large choice of local restaurants.

Prague is definitely a city I would love to return to. I feel there is so much to explore!
