A	Anthony Chan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A set of monasteries with monks and nuns currently living inside. 1. It's a pilgrimage place for Orthodox faithfuls. The sarcophagus below is well worth visit 2. For foreign tourist they require you to join a guided tour (fees required) 3. In my opinion the tour is not worth as the nuns don't give much information about the saints. You can enter without guide if you know where the entrance is, which is located at the lower levels of the complex.
M	Marco Domizio on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very nice monastery a few minutes away from the Royal Palace. The church is small but impressive
M	Mico Milanovic on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wonderful collection of liturgical objects! The inner courtyard with the central rectangular sanctuary is very unique and wonderfully designed. Well worth a visit if you want to take a break from the hustle of Prague and are looking for a very relaxed venue to catch your breath.
K	Kacper Borowiecki on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It is pricey (120 CZK student, compared to 125 CZK for the castle...). You can get in, but the sights were not that impressive to be honest. If you are not religious - it may be not an offer for you.
D	David Dancey on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A famous church near Prague Castle. The church and surrounding cloisters are not the most spectacular site in Prague’s Castle District, but it is worth visiting if you have time. There is a replica of a chapel of the Holy House in Loreto Italy, which is oddly done on the inside, with even cracks in the walls being replicated. The exterior of this chapel is decorated with statuary. The church is an impressive Rococo work, and the surrounding cloisters are also worth viewing. On the upper levels of the cloisters are the treasures of the Loreta, which include many golden monstrances. Parts of this monastery may be slightly off-putting to non-religious visitors at times, but if one has an interest in such things, this is well worth a visit.
L	Luke Matarazzo on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Really nice church and items to view. There is a lot to see here but it is a little pricey.
C	Cat Kerr on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not particularly impressive, as far as historic European religious sites go. I didn’t realize until I was there, that the whole top floor is renovated and therefore contemporary and unoriginal. You can see an original chapel, and that’s about it. You can hear the carillon, but you can’t go up there either. A lot of fees, too…in addition to the ticket fee, there is a fee to take photos, and another fee to use the bathroom. Plus the gift shop lady was really pushy. The whole thing just felt very touristy and like they were trying to get every koruna out of me that they could. It didn’t have the sacred, tranquil feeling I expect in these types of places. If you are actually a Christian seeking spiritual experiences in Prague, this is definitely not the place for it.
L	Lesia on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We liked the hotel. It's situated in the historical part of Prague, and costs not very much. Interiors are great, interesting, and everything is clean. The breakfast was great, rich choice of food. And very pleasant lady at the reception made us feeling so comfortable we didn't want go away. Definitely will stay there again and recommend it our friends.
