Prague public transport

Boutique hotel Seven Days is ideally located in the centre of Prague just a very short walk from the Wenceslas square and National Museum. There are both metro stations (Muzeum, I.P.Pavlova) and tram stops within 5 minutes´walk from our hotel so the whole city is very easily reachable.
