Directions from the airport and train station to Sinkuleho Hostel (map)
Prague’s RUZYNĚ Airport is located 15 km west of the city centre. There are banks and automats for changing money (daily 7:00 – 23:00), a car-rental office and public phones, bar, shops, etc. You can make your way from the airport to Sinkuleho Dormitory by city bus or taxi. The city bus is recommended.
A cheap and very effective way of getting to Sinkuleho dorm is by city bus no. 119, which brings passengers from the airport to Dejvická metro station. The bus ticket costs only CZK 32 (for 90 minutes, CZK 24 for 30min.). Buy it in advance, from a booth or from the yellow ticket machine, and frank it when you get on the bus. The service is very frequent, and the travel time to the main Dejvice campus is about 20 minutes. The 119 bus terminates at the Diplomat Hotel, right next to the CTU campus at Dejvice.
Passengers travelling to Prague by train typically pull into one of two central stations: Hlavní nádraží (Main Station) or Nádraží Holešovice (Holešovice Station). Both are on line C of the metro system and offer a number of services, including money exchange, post office, and a luggage-storage area. The Main Station is usually the terminus for trains from the west (Paris, Frankfurt) and east (Budapest), while Holešovice Station is for through trains from Berlin and Dresden to Vienna. The main Dejvice campus and Masarykova Dormitory are located near Dejvická metro station. You take the metro to Muzeum station and there you can transfer to line A (green). Dejvická is the last stop at the north-west end of line A.
