STAYING IN PRAGUE
Why Prague?
Prague is a beautiful city with many attractions for visitors, but
we are most fortunate to have the support of the National
Theatre (Národní Divadlo), who have made their spectacular dance
studio facilties available to us.
Accommodation
Accommodation is based on two to four people sharing in University locations
in the heart of Prague's old town, and includes breakfast. These are
reasonably priced hostels (see
the hostels' website) with friendly, helpful staff and good
facilities (Note: a
single room can be arranged at additional cost and only if specifically
requested).
Should you wish to make your own arrangements for staying in
Prague, we recommend that you contact the City's tourist board: you
must inform the organisers of contact details for in the city prior
to your arrival. Please note that while our hostel of choice may not be the Ritz,
it has the unique advantage that it is able to accommodate all
of the dancers under one roof and the location is fantastic. It is just
a short walk of about seven minutes, across the Old Town Square towards
Charles Bridge, to the studios of the National Theatre.
During the day, snacks, light meals, fresh fruit and drinks
can be bought in the studios' canteen. Situated between all
the studios on the ground floor, the canteen also offers a pleasant area
to meet
and relax between classes.
