Going to Prague in October. Can't wait!

Any tips or recommendations for a few buddies going there for 3 days?

I love this city. I especially love this city at night and how they place their lights at the bottom, pointing up of their site attractions, really makes the buildings pop and stand out.

@vtec4life fusion hostel was a great hostel to stay at, very close to old town.

Thanks for the feedback guys, appreciate it!

3 days is enough to see the jist of Prague. I have stayed twice now at hostel santini and really like it. Major things are:

- Old Town/New Town
- Charles Bridge
- Prague Castle
- TV tower
- Jewish area - Josefov

Some things I'd recommend:
- Go on a walking tour. Lots of hostel have "free" ones (you tip the guide at the end something reasonable like 10 bucks).
- Night Tour of Old Town. I think they advertise it as a ghost tour but really, you get to go below the street level of Old Town which is really cool.
- Go to Lokal. And eat your face off. Lots of local Czechs eat here because it's good and cheap so be prepared to wait. Additionally I found restaurants on the west side of Charles Bridge much better than right in Old Town
- The 5 floor club! Right by the east end of Charles Bridge, you can't miss it and it's a riot
- Letenské sady is a hilltop green space with a giant metronome at the top of the stairs. Great city views and free
- Communist Museum was actually quite informative about Prague history. I found it really interesting.

No sadly I didn't have enough time. I spoke with a Czech girl on the train and she said it's too much for the amount of time I had there. Had I planned it better it would have been doable but was either Cesky or Kutna Hora and I chose that. The bone church is absolutely insane.
