Prices in the Czech Republic are not too high. However, it is worth bearing in mind that the prices in Prague, Brno and in popular mountain resorts such as Spindleruv Mlyn will definitely be higher. Especially when it comes to their center, old town and the vicinity of the greatest attractions, where it will certainly be expensive. In the rest of the Czech Republic, prices will be much friendlier to our wallets.
Accommodation prices in the Czech Republic
Accommodation prices in the Czech Republic vary, not only due to the specific date of arrival (in summer is the most expensive), but also to their specific location. In the most expensive Czech city – Prague, the closer to the center, the higher the cost of accommodation. On the other hand, in the outskirts or in much less touristic places, accommodation prices will be lower.
A lot also depends on the standard of the facility itself, in which we are going to stay. In the Czech Republic, we have a full hotel offer to choose from, as well as hostels, apartments and rooms for rent in dormitories. Especially the latter option allows you to live in this country in a really inexpensive way.
On the other hand, the average accommodation prices in the Czech Republic are as follows:
- a room in a dormitory costs 150-200 CZK
- we will pay about 580 CZK for a night in a hostel
- a night in a two-star hotel costs CZK 1120
- an overnight stay in a three-star hotel sanctuary will cost 1,420 CZK
- four-star hotel costs CZK 2,340 per night
- a night in a five-star hotel facility costs at least CZK 3340
Prices for intercity transport and public transport in the Czech Republic
Transport prices in the Czech Republic, both between cities and the city transport itself, are not high. When it comes to getting around this country, we have a choice of railways and a bus network. Interestingly, sometimes it is train tickets that may turn out to be cheaper than bus transport. For example, for the Prague – Brno train route, we have to pay about 210 CZK, while from Prague to Ostrava, the train ticket will be 240 CZK. The same distance, but traveled by bus can cost us almost 420 CZK.
However, when it comes to the prices of public transport in the Czech Republic, it is almost always profitable to buy daily tickets. If, of course, we intend to drive a little more around the city.
Examples of public transport costs in the Czech Republic are as follows:
- a half-hour ticket is 24 CZK
- an hour and a half ticket costs 32 CZK
- we will spend 110 CZK on a daily ticket
- a three-day ticket will cost 310 CZK
