Long-term Stays

If you are planning an extended stay in Prague you have a few options. You can stay in a serviced apartment but you won’t get a very good price. Usually expect between 15 and 30 per cent discount from daily or week rates. Another option is renting an apartment short-term or long-term. Short- term apartments can be rented for 3 months (but sometimes can be negotiated for even shorter periods) and long-term usually from 6 months up to 1 year.
