Jan Palach Square is one of the main stops on any tourist visit. Learn about its historical background or just sit and watch the world go by.

This public square is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Prague City Center. But Jan Palach Square isn't the only drawcard in the area. Charles Bridge, Old Town Square, and Prague Castle are some other recommended attractions nearby.

9/10 Wonderful! (36 reviews)

Lovely big apartment. Great area. Easy walking to most places. Also plenty of trams. Needed earplugs as busy road outside. Check in wasn't good. Was sent no information. Had to phone to find out where to pick up keys. A place that closed soon after I got there. Would have been good to have been sent that information first, especially as the place to pick them up closes at 11pm. Apart from that the place was great and would stay there again.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (724 reviews)

The rooms were exceptionally clean. I love that you had walk-in showers. The temperature of the room was comfortable. Some nice treats were included -- Free water daily, macaroons one night. Olga at the front desk was particularly helpful.
