Location

Kampa Hotel in the Center of Prague

Hotel Archibald is situated on Kampa Island in Lesser Town in the historic center of Prague. You will be staying just a few steps from the famous Charles Bridge which is part of the Royal Route – the path along which the medieval Bohemian monarchs paraded on their way to being crowned.

The Charles Bridge (Czech: Karlův most) is a famous historic bridge that crosses the Vltava river in Prague, Czech Republic. Its construction started in 1357 under the auspices of King Charles IV, and finished in the beginning of the 15th century.

This 10 meter wide bridge is protected by three bridge towers. The Old Town Bridge Tower is often considered to be one of the most astonishing civil gothic-style buildings in the world. The bridge is decorated by a continuous alley of 30 statues, most of them in baroque-style.

During the night, the Charles Bridge is a quiet place, but during the day it is transformed into a very busy place – filled with artists, painters, owners of kiosks with souvenirs and hand-made products and other traders as well as numerous tourists crossing the bridge.

Travel Picks: Top 10 islands within cities

(Reuters Life!) - Some offer serenity, some counter culture, and others are just a good old-fashioned get-away from the city. Regardless, there's something incredibly appealing about an island in the middle of an urban setting. Online travel firm VirtualTourist offers its top 10 islands within cities destinations.

1. Ile Saint-Louis; Paris, France

In a city known for its refinement and elegance, this small island stands out as being the quintessential example of French understatement.

2. Kampa Island; Prague, Czech Republic

Said by many to be the most romantic part of Prague, this part of the city is so stunning it looks almost unreal. Beatles fans know the area for its "Lennon Wall," a wall which visitors from around the world cover with poems, songs, and tributes to the fallen singer.

3. Ada Ciganlija; Belgrade, Serbia

A sports enthusiast's dream, this island offers just about every possible sporting facility imaginable. From water skiing to soap soccer, paintball to paddleboats, Ada Ciganlija has just about

everything for the vacationing athlete.
