How to find the best party hostels in Prague
Ever wondered what it’s like to visit a city that’s half medieval wonderland and half city-wide nightclub? Prague is one of the weirdest and most wonderful backpacking destinations out there, where having a beer at 10am is totally fine. It’s rich in history and full of stunning landmarks to explore, but this city really throws everything it has at you once the sun goes down. Massive nightclubs, live jazz bars and Irish pubs cover every corner, and alcohol is outrageously cheap. You know that notorious green liquid known as Absinthe? Prague is its hometown…so yeah, you’re in for a wild one.
The best party hostels in Prague are the perfect starting point for your legendary night out, with many offering pub crawls and drink deals to prepare you for Prague’s nightlife wilderness. They cater to all kinds of partiers, with vibes ranging from chilled-out pre drinks to drunken walking tours. Most of the best party hostels in Prague are in the trendy neighbourhood of Vinohrady, or right in the centre of the Old Town. The city is very walkable and it’s also easy to get around on the city’s trams, so you’ll never miss out on the best clubs and bars!
