Are you traveling around with an overstuffed backpack? Have you recently completed a university degree? Have ever considered having or do you currently have dreadlocks? If you've answered, "yes," to any or all of these questions, then the Dlouha Pension and Hostel may be the place for you.
The Dlouha is one stop shopping for the youthful traveling crowd with more time than money. But it's very convenient—a three-minute walk from the Old Town Square—and surrounded by great restaurants and bars.
Though not exactly a charmer, the hostel is clean. The 164 rooms come in every type of configuration. You can stay in an en suite single, a 16-bed dormitory, or a two-bedroom apartment with kitchen. Private rooms are very basic with university dorm-style furnishings, office-grade blue carpet, and little else—maybe a picture or two and some flimsy gingham curtains. Those with private facilities have teeny tiny bathrooms with teeny tiny sinks. But all are priced C-H-E-A-P for Prague. Plus, you don't have to go far for entertainment: The Dlouha has a bar on the top floor with a jukebox, foosball table, television, and computer.
Dlouha is the flagship hostel for the Travellers' Hostel group. If it's fully booked, the receptionists will help you find a bed in one of their other centrally located hostels.
