BOOKED IT THROUGH HOTEL.COM REALLY ENJOYED THE JULIAN
2005 I have stayed in Prague twice.
Ist stay was in an apartment on Wencelas Square.
Next time we stayed at the Julian .
Our stay at the Julian was first Class . Slightly away from the
Tourist part of the City but only ten mins walk from the Charles Bridge.
The guest rooms are en-suite and have Satelitte TV.
Bar and Restaurant are down stairs .
Very cheap for hotel prices.
The hotel has a drawing room .
Look out for free cake of the day. All rooms Tea and Coffee
Breakfast ample.
We found out that in 1948 the hotel was taken out of the hands of
private owners and put under the management of the Communist State.
After many years the place turned into uninhabitable squat and had to be shut down.
1990 the house was returned to the orginal owners.
In 1992 the present owners [Sevcik family] turned it in to a quility hotel.
I arranged for the hotel`s Chauffeur service to pick us up at the Airport.
1200 czk Return.
Al ot better than getting ripped off by the Airport Taxi`s.
Great Restaurant next Door. Very good service.
The beer was really cheap away from tourist areas.
Go to the Charles bridge around 22.00 as the best buskers as there then.
Loved my stay at the Julian. Will return soon.

Wenceslas Square in Prague is a vibrant area of hotels, apartments, restaurants, bars, clubs and shops.
One of two main squares in central Prague (the other is the Old Town Square, 5 minutes walk away), Wenceslas Square (Vaclavske Namesti) is a very popular place to stay. Visitors are drawn to the entertainment and nightlife all around, plus the International shops which make this Prague's main shopping area.
Wenceslas Square also offers easy access to all the Prague sights and attractions. From here it is possible to walk anywhere in the city centre.
The 750m long and 60m wide boulevard that makes up Wenceslas Square was laid out over 600 years ago during the reign of Charles IV. It was originally used as the main Prague horse market.
Over the years the square has been a regular parade ground for all kinds of organisations and political parties. From anti-communist uprisings to celebrations of national sporting acheivements, this is where Czech's come to let off steam. Wenceslas Square comfortably holds up to 400,000 people!
At the top of Wenceslas Square, the statue of St. Wenceslas on his horse cuts a striking figure. This is good King Wenceslas (Vaclav), murdered over a thousand years ago by his brother, and now a Czech national hero.
In front of St. Wenceslas are two plaques in memory of those killed during the Communist era. One is dedicated to Jan Palach, a 20-year old student who set himself on fire in January 1969, in protest at the Soviet invasion.
