Please note that most lines had been changed for the summer due to construction work. Please inquire by email which lines may take you to our house at the date of your arrival.

 

Most international trains arrive to Nádraží Holešovice (Holešovice train station) or Hlavní nádraží (Main train station). Getting to our house from both these stations is fairly easy.

Holešovice train station – take tram No. 12 and go as far as Malostranské náměstí (direction centre – to the right when you will leave the station hall). Leave the tram, and follow the rails in the direction where the tram will go. Second wide street to your right by a clock standing in the middle of the road is called Trziste and is climbing slightly uphill. Turn, and go on keeping left ( along several embassies ), the narrow street at the top of Trziste is the beginning of Vlasska street. Still keep left and go as far as the street opens and you will see the German flag. There we are. Just opposite the big palace.

Hlavní nádraží (Main train station) – take the tram No. 9 (going out of the station building go to the right and you will see tram rails). There also is the tram stop. Go to the direction centre – to the left, and once the tram crosses the river, get off, and wait at the same tram stop for a tram No. 22 or a tram No. 23. Get on, go 2 stops and get off on Malostranske namesti (Malostranske square). Now you arrived at the square as above but you have to go in direction from which you arrived. Then as above.

While it sounds a bit complicated it actually is quite simple (especially from Holesovice) and you should be here in about 30-40 minutes. Please note that you have to buy a 26 Kc ticket either at one of the shops at the stations or at yellow ticket machines (coins only).

While at other parts of the city taxi is recommended at the train stations the taxis still try to overcharge highly. However, I have been told that at the main station you can now get “official” taxi at fixed rates in a booth at the hall. If you decide for this option the maximum fare should be 300 Kc. Technically it should be around 200 Kc but 350 Kc is still “reasonable” maximum. To our great regret negotiation with the taxi drivers can be sometimes a bit of an intimidating experience. If you have a cell phone you can also call yourself a taxi. We recommend AAA taxi as they speak English and are the biggest taxi service in Prague. Their phone number is +420 222 333 222.

Last option is to order a pick-up from the station at http://www.mike-chauffeur.cz/prague-transfer. However, you have to know your train and arrival time ahead. We usually prefer that our guests book the transfer themselves as it gives you more time to decide on last minute changes.
