How to get there …
1) Plane
The closest airport to the conference venue in Pyramida Hotel is Václav Havel airport Prague. It offers scheduled flight connections to many European and overseas airports.
From the airport, you can travel by several means, public transport, taxi, Uber or Bolt.
Public transport
The easiest route to get to the conference is taking the bus number 191 from the airport to Vypich. There, change to the tram, line 22 (direction Nádraží Hostivař) or line 25 (direction Lehovec) and go to the station Malovanka, which is next to the hotel. This journey should take 40 - 45 min.
Alternatively, you can take the bus number 119 from the airport to Nádraží Veleslavín. There, change to Metro, line A (direction Depo Hostivař) and go to the station Hradčanská. There, change to tram 25 (direction Bílá Hora) and go to the station Malovanka, which is next to the hotel. This journey is a bit longer (around 50 min) but the bus 119 is more frequent than 191.
Possible connections can be found here or through Google maps.
The ticket (costing 40 CZK; which equals approx. to 1.60 €) can be purchased in the ticket machine at the airport that accepts both cash and cards. The ticket is valid inside whole Prague city limits (zone P) in metro, buses, trams and regional trains and you can change as many times as you wish within its time limit of 90 min. After getting on the first bus or tram or when entering the metro area, you have to validate your ticket.
Taxi
There is a taxi service available at the airport. However, the reputation of Prague taxi drivers is not particularly high and although the situation is getting better, there are still not infrequent reports of overpriced journeys. As an advice and starting point, insisting on setting on the meter and not negotiating the price in advance might help.
Alternatively, web-operated Uber and Bolt services may be used. They are fairly similar, usually cheaper and reliable with the options to pay cash or by card. For both, iPhone and Android apps are available. To get to the Pyramida hotel, put in the address “Bělohorská 24, Praha”.
