Last year, the Czech Republic celebrated its 100th birthday, and Prague — the country's capital city — was named one of 2018's top destinations by the New York Times.

Bisected by the Vltava River, “the City of a Hundred Spires" is known for its Old Town Square, colorful baroque buildings, Gothic churches and its medieval Astronomical Clock, which gives an animated hourly show. Besides the stunning architecture, there are also enough local libations and delightful dishes to appease any traveler.

Fortunately, there are plenty of relatively inexpensive flights between Atlanta and Prague on travel site Skyscanner.

Here’s a list of flights, hotels, restaurants and local attractions in Prague to get you started. (Prices and availability are current as of publication and subject to change.)

Top Prague hotels

To plan your stay, here are some of Prague’s top-rated hotels, according to Skyscanner, that we selected based on price, proximity to things to do and customer satisfaction.

The Mosaic House (Odboru 4)

If you're looking for an all-around top recommendation, consider The Mosaic House. The hotel has a 4.9-star rating on Skyscanner, and rooms are currently available for $110.  

The Sophie's Hostel (Melounova 2)

There's also the 4.8-star rated The Sophie's Hostel, which has rooms for $16/night.

This hotel is located near the Czech National Museum, the Czech Technical University and Wenceslas Square.

A third option is The Louren Hotel. With a five-star rating on Skyscanner, the hotel is one of the most luxurious in the city. Rooms are currently listed for $92/night.  

Featured Prague food and drink

If you're looking for a popular spot to grab a bite, Prague has plenty of excellent eateries to choose from. Here are a few from Skyscanner's listings to help you get started.

Potrefena Husa Hybernska (Dlážděná 1003/7 110 00)

First things first: where to get a drink. For a popular option, check out Potrefena Husa Hybernska, which has an average of five stars out of seven reviews on Skyscanner.

"This restaurant is great especially for students and backpackers and budget travelers," wrote visitor Emily. "When I was studying in Prague this was often the restaurant of choice for my friends and I."

SaSaZu (Bubenske Nabrezi 306)

One of Prague's most popular restaurants is SaSaZu, with 4.9 stars from seven reviews.

"Both club and high-end Asian fusion restaurant, a night at stylish SaSaZu is always an unforgettable experience," wrote reviewer Clare. 

Cafe Imperial (Na Porici, 15)

Finally, there's Cafe Imperial.

"This is an absolutely stunning restaurant," wrote Louisa. "The beautiful tilework is worth a visit, even if you just pop in to take a few photos. The restaurant serves typical Czech cuisine and is a great place to try out some local favorites, including locally made wine by the glass."

What to see and do in Prague

Prague is also full of sites to visit and explore. Here are some popular attractions to round out your trip, again from Skyscanner's listings.

The Charles Bridge (Karlův most)

First up is The Charles Bridge.

Joining the Lesser Side with Old Town, the Charles bridge is famously the best spot for viewing the Prague Castle. Thousands of people traverse this cobbled bridge every year in search of magic, bohemia and possibly the good-luck plaque at the 16th statue (in the sequence of 30 on the bridge). 

Prague Castle (Prague 11908)

Prague Castle is another popular destination.

Perhaps the most beautiful sight east of Paris, Prague Castle was the original seat of power in bohemia, the home of Czech royalty. The former royal compound is actually a series of castles, with a cathedral and several gardens and plazas at the center. 

Old Town Square (Staroměstské nám.)

Lastly, spend some time at Old Town Square.

Aptly named for its location in the Old Town quarter of Prague, Old Town Square is the oldest and most populated square in this historic city. While there are a number of architectural styles that can be seen throughout the space, the dominating figure is the Church of Our Lady before Tyn, a massive Gothic structure completed in the 15th century.
