Get a decent guide book - it should have everything you need in there. Don%26#39;t panic - You%26#39;re right in the centre and everything should be obvious and within walking distance! Your hotel should be able to help you with what is on at the opera and theatre.

You won%26#39;t need any takeaways (can%26#39;t think of any anyway, except for McDs and KFC). Massage I%26#39;m not sure, but maybe you need something to calm yourself down :)

Don%26#39;t necessarily go for the places that have been recommended as they are invariably more expensive than the equally good one next door at half the price, and avoid anywhere with a %26#39;tourist menu%26#39;, or prices given in Euros, or beer priced at over 40 Crowns.

And Prague is primarily for the sightseeing, so I would concentrate on that - you only have three days :)

Look at your previous posting, Torii provided some recommendations for restaurants and Bars.

She also recommends U Prince as a good bar with excellent views. For an afternoon tea or drinks you could drop into Cafe Slavia, on the embankment opposite the National Theatre.

For a special meal you could have a look at Kampa Park, but this is not cheap.

Re tours, if you wish to visit the Jewish Quarter,

Wittman tours provide an excellent service.

You would want to visit the castle, but don%26#39;t bother with any tours, just go by yourselves and enjoy.

For takeways I do stand up bars at Wenceslas Square, sausage, bread, beer. (not many would recommend this)

You could probably manage the odd McDonalds which are everywhere, and not far from Hilton as you walk towards the bottom of Wenceslas Square.

Hilton also has a Gordon Ramsey restaurant, which is recommended by many for food although not perhaps for ambiance.

For massages look at this website

Re: %26#39;For takeways I do stand up bars at Wenceslas Square, sausage, bread, beer. (not many would recommend this)%26#39;

I would definitely recommend this approach for most, if not all, of your meals.

This is what you are letting yourself in for:

Look at lunch as well.

It%26#39;s all part of the Czech experience and you shouldn%26#39;t go home without it!

Dobrou chuť!
