Type of stay
Wake up in town
Towns are at their best in the morning and evening, once the day-trippers have gone. That is why it pays to stay the night – even in small ones such as Telč or Třeboň.
Where to go
- 1.
South Moravia
Vineyards, wine cellars, the Pálava hills and the Lednice–Valtice Cultural Landscape. The warmest corner of the country and the shortest way from table to bike.
Food: 10/10 (editorial score)
- 2.
Prague
A historic centre on the UNESCO list since 1992. Where to stay so that you experience Prague rather than just walk through it.
Food: 9/10 (editorial score)
- 3.
