Admire the impressive facade or watch a classical music performance at this important religious site of the Hussite community in Prague.

St. Nicholas Church at the Old Town Square looms over the center of the Old Town. Come here to enjoy a concert or mass, or simply admire its architecture.

For centuries St. Nicholas Church’s stark white walls were hidden from the Old Town Square by the neighboring Krenn House, but have been made visible again. Approach the church on a sunny day and the walls appear to glow white. At night the walls are illuminated by floodlights.

Enter the church to see its equally stunning interior. Despite many of the ornaments within the church being removed when an emperor closed all monasteries, the walls and ceiling are still a sight to behold. Spend some time gazing at the murals, decorated in stucco and showing scenes of St. Nicholas.

St. Nicholas remains an active church, with mass every Sunday morning. The members are of Hussite faith, but people of all backgrounds are welcome.

During the evening the purpose of the church shifts completely. St. Nicholas Church is one of Prague’s premier venues for classical music. Experience the thrill of hearing the Prague String Orchestra perform with the aid of the church’s unique acoustics.

Don’t confuse the church at the Old Town Square with the church of the same name in Prague’s Lesser Town. They share a name, style and architect, but there is a river between them and they don’t offer the same services.

St. Nicholas Church at the Old Town Square is located in the Old Town and is easily reached by public transport and on foot. The church is open daily, with concerts occurring most nights. Tickets to the concerts can sell out, so try to book ahead. While the church is heated in winter, it does get cold at night and warm clothes are advised.

7.2/10 Good! (10 reviews)

I have stayed here a couple times now. The rooms are clean and the water is hot. The hotel is around a 5 minute walk to the end-of-the-line tram station. There are also busses available to get into Prague. As far as check-in, there is a note on the door that says to call a local phone number and they will let you in and give you the key. The check-in process was very fast. I stayed for 3 nights. The amenities were a bottle of soap and a small towel. It is a basic hotel. Parking is free, which was a main draw for me. I will stay here again.

7.8/10 Good! (466 reviews)

We stayed here for 4 nights. The location is great as it is close to Prague Castle and the room had a great view, the trams stop in front of the hotel and the city centre is close. The room was spacious and the bed is okay. Unfortunately there were many negative aspects: Every time you moved around the wardrobe doors would bang, the radiator covers were broken, the curtains do no not close fully. The room is dusty. The pillows on the bed were dreadful. On most days there was no hot water for a shower. It seems that there is a limited supply of hot water: if other guests used it then you are out of luck. The bathroom is spacious, but the bath is not user friendly. Anyone with mobility issues will find it hard to get in and out. You have to sit when you shower and hold the shower head in your hand. There is a mount on the wall, but if you use that the shower will point directly to the wall. The toilet seat was thin plastic and wobbly. The hotel has about 10 steps to reach the reception and the elevator stops in between floors. You still need to climb about 12 steps. Transport to the hotel was fine (850 CZK), however, when trying to book transport back to the airport, the receptionist initially said that they would only take EURO. Later we booked it for 850 CZK. The receptionist knocked 30 minutes later on the door and asked for an additional 100 CZK. According to signs in the airport it should be around 25 EURO (650CZK). We will not return to this hotel.

9/10 Wonderful! (163 reviews)

Very unique idea of having the hotel connected to its sister hotel via funicular. This meant we had constant access to the city and just a few minutes from the Andēl metro station from the lower hotel, while also having peace and quiet from the noise of the city in the evenings in the upper hotel. The breakfast was great - I’m Coeliac and all allergens were marked clearly, and there was a small gluten free section of cereals in addition to the continental section and most of the cooked food being safe.
