13 Years of Experience
|
Travelers Hostel was founded by in. Petr Jetliner in the summer of the year 1990.
The first hostel was opened only 7 months after the Velvet Revolution of the Czech
Republic and the Fall of the Berlin Wall, when the borders of the Czech Republic were
opened to millions of foreign travellers for the first time in 40 years.
Jelinek's idea was to provide reasonably priced accommodation in the center of the city.
All of the Prague Travellers Hostels are within walking distance to the most
interesting sights of Prague.
Since the first hostel (Krizovnicka) opened by the Charles Bridge in 1990, the
total capacity of the Travellers Hostels has risen to 600 beds in 7 different
hostels. The services available have also increased, to include such amenities as an
online reservation service, internet access, parking, hostel bars, garden pubs and BBQ's,
bike rental, laundry service, and transport between Prague and the beautiful South
Bohemian city of Cesky Krumlov (where one of the Travellers Hostels is located). We
are also planning to open a boat hostel "Amelia", which will have another 40
beds and will be docked on the Vltava river, with lovely views of Prague Castle and the
Old Town.
The staff of Travellers Hostels is made up of friendly, young, English speaking Czechs who
are always happy to provide our guests with a wide range of information to ensure that
their stay in Prague is as enjoyable as possible.
