9/10 Wonderful! (34 reviews)
The location was amazing. So close to Charles bridge and the castle. Also access to a beautiful foreted park area within two minutes was fantastic. Views were beautiful. Considering the apartment was on the tram line it was very quiet. Having AC in both bedrooms was a blessing and the smart tv kept the kids entertained during the thunderstorm. Beds were comfortable and a washer and dryer was a huge plus. Would stay again.

The staff was great. We stayed 5 days and had a wonderful time. Our small kids were with us. The room was one of the best we've stayed in over here in Europe. I love writing this review because they really were great. Breakfast was very good. The area has a lot of shopping a restaurants. And we Uber'd everywhere from here. Recommend this place wholeheartedly.

Pardubice became a town sometime around 1340. Back then it was owned by the Lords of Pardubice, the most prominent figure of the line being Arnošt of Pardubice, the first Archbishop of Prague, advisor and friend to Emperor Charles IV, a distinguished European personality of that time. Buildings on the square and adjacent streets bear the oldest traces of early gothic architecture. The neo-renaissance city hall of Pardubice is the main focal point. Arnošt of Pardubice, the Velká Pardubická Steeplechase, the Golden Helmet, gingerbread – this is just a brief list of what Pardubice is famous for in the minds of people in the Czech Republic and the entire world. However, if you are not an enthusiastic historian, sports fan or culinary gourmand, you can catch up by reading the following crash course on the city. Pardubice lies on the point where the Labe and Chrudimka rivers meet and dates back to more than 700 years. The emblem, which Pardubice has been using as its symbol since the 12th century, is created from a silver horse on a red background. The city experienced its greatest flourishing during the time, when the estate belonged to the noble family the Pernštejns, who gave the historical centre of Pardubice’s its appearance. They say that Pardubice is a city of sports, horses and gingerbread, and it can also be considered the city of transportation. The historically first railway route from Olomouc to Prague leads through here, an international airport is situated here, you can reach the city by car and perhaps even by boat soon. So, now you know how to get to Pardubice. #europe #czech #czechrepublic #city #cityscape #gothic #architecture #travel #history #instone #details
