Our Prague trip was amazing fun!

I had  expected it to be a laid back, relaxing trip....let me just tell you, I  saw sunrise on 3 mornings! These boys know how to drink and have a good time!

Wednesdays everyone goes to TERMIX. Popular with both gay men and lesbians, Termix is a newer club with a pop interior. Free admission, comfy seating, and an intimate dance floor make this a great place to pop in and enjoy a social cocktail before or after dinner. Open 8pm to 5am Wednesday through Sunday. - But it is rocking after 11pm  on Wednesdays.   - Trebizskeho 4    
Tel. 222 710 462

Thursdays (and weekends) are especially good at The TEMPLE. Completely redesigned,  renamed and revamped, the former Pinocchio's appears to have risen a notch in the sophistication stakes.  Temple is inhabited almost exclusively by rent boys and their fans and customers. Lots of fun, and very friendly crowd. - -  We previously did a story about legal male prostitution in Prague. - - Owner Joe Brewster has done a great job with the place and upstairs are beautiful rooms and apartments for rent. manager Alexander (the Great!)  will take care of all of your wants a needs. From taxi service to private city tours. - Sometimes on Sundays afternoons, there is a wonderful brunch going on! Busy after 8pm in the evenings....  Seifertova 3, Prague 3.  Tel: 222 710 773

(By the way, right next door to the TEMPLE is a little Herna Bar - called Monty. They have some casino type machines/slots and a tiny little walk-up bar, and during the day, many hot young - rent - boys will hang out here sipping cola and chatting with people. - I actually won $200 here. Then quickly spent it....)


                             

 

Saturday nights, VALENTINO is the place to be and be seen! Since opening its doors in late 2005 and swallowing its next door neighbor just a couple of months later, Valentino has risen quickly to become the leading gay venue in the city.  Ideally located on Vinohradska street, the main thoroughfare in gay town, it is also comfortably the biggest place on the scene with three floors, four bars, two dance floors and two darkrooms.  You can easily get lost in here.  Packed and extremely hot and sweaty at the weekend, everyone seems to come here after midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.  There are also tables outside in the summer.  No charge to get in. Open 11am til late. (5am?)  Vinohradska 40, Prague 2 Vinohrady.

Feeling sexy? ALCATRAZ was big fun! It is listed as a leather-levi-uniform club. Alcatraz is actually two venues: a typical Czech pub (but with a gay clientèle) and underneath a gay sex club, particularly popular with the more masculine crowd - but a wide variety of people come here for sex and fun.  Although to some eyes the place can seem a bit rough, it is well liked due to its lack of attitude and overall friendliness.  The sex club is well equipped with dark rooms, video cabins and various other specialty rooms.  They have naked parties every Sunday.  There is a modest entrance fee.The pub is open Monday to Saturday from 7pm to 2am.  The sex club opens daily from 10pm to 5am. SUNDAYS  are underwear night - THURSDAYS are naked night!   -  Check your clothes and the bartender will run a tab for you.  -  Borivojova 58, Praha 3, Zizkov   -  Tel: 222 711 458

 

24 hour fun can be had at DRAKES.  Bar, boyz, cabins, private dancers, movies - it's all here! Slings, cages, glory holes....Europe's biggest dungeon! A bit out of the way location in Smichov on the other side of the river.  But lots of fun.  -   Zborovska 50, Prague 5 Smichov.   

PRAGUE SAINTS  actually booked our trip for us. They are a gay-run travel company providing accommodation and tour services for gay visitors to the Czech Republic.  They offer great rates on Prague hotels, beautiful apartments, private tours of Prague and the Czech Republic and they have their own little bar, The Saints.  The barmen speak English and will be happy to help you navigate the gay life of the city.   -  We found many people in Prague that spoke at least a little English. And there are many business owners who speak English around town. So don't let the language barrier scare you.  -  The Saints is a nice local neighborhood hangout with lots of regulars and tourists, and you can not help but feel welcomed and make new friends here.   Open daily from 7pm to 4am. 
Polska 32, Prague 2 Vinohrady.  Nearest metro Line A Jiriho z Podebrad; nearest tram No.11 to Vinohradska Trznice.  Tel: 222 250 326 

Food was hit and miss in Prague for us.  However, a regular staple on our trip was CELEBRITY CAFE. This ultra gay friendly split level cafe sits in the heart of the Prague gay quarter and has a large gay following. Great for a drink during the afternoon when most of the other bars are closed.  Full restaurant menu available. Sidewalk cafe in warm weather. GREAT food. Great prices. Great location.

Monday to Thursday 8am to 1am, Fridays 8am to 3am, Saturdays 10am to 3am, Sundays 10am to 1am. 
Vinohradska 40, Prague 2. Tel: 222 511 343

Our favorite became PIZZERIE ROMA UNO  - which was near Alacatraz. AMAZINGLY good  thin crust pizza and very tasty beef carpaccio. And open 23 hours! (They close for 1 hour) I think this is the ONLY place in Prague serving food and drinks round the clock.  Jagellonska 16, Prague 3 , Tel: 222 714 154



And for the view, not the food, you should check out the famous TV TOWER. At least go inside for a cocktail and the amazing sweeping views of the city. Over 200 meters soaring into the clouds, the Tower is a dominant landmark in the city skyline. The architecture is accentuated with  a bizaree yet thought provoking series of huge black infants that adorn the facia of the tower! Kind  of strange.....

Sex is really everywhere in this town -  as most European cites - But if you feel the need for a hot tub  and a little more sex, there are  serveral saunas around town.


Babylonia is a very nice sauna situated on two floors right in the centre of the city. It is the biggest sauna in Prague and also the most popular. They get very busy on Fridays and Saturdays between 5pm and 10pm, however, you can meet people here any time during opening hours. Babylonia offers a dry sauna, steam-room, whirlpool, a couple of chairs for relaxing, a nice bar with friendly staff, a small gym and a number of cubicals and video-room in the basement.   Open daily 2pm to 3am. Martinska 6, Prague 1.  -  Tel: 224 232 304

Sauna Marco is a nice quiet sauna visited mainly by Czechs. very small, they have a sauna,  steam-room, video cabins, solarium, a small whirlpool and a cozy little bar with a big aquarium. Karel, their cute bartender, is very chatty and you’re likely to get drawn into a conversation with the locals. Marco gets busy on Fridays and Saturdays after 5pm but you’ll meet people there in any late afternoon. We did spot 2 porn stars here! Had lots of fun and the staff was great! Open daily from 2pm to 3am.  Lublanska 1916/17, Prague 2 – New Town. -   Tel: 224 262 833.


Prague was so much fun and so visually exciting, we can't wait to go back!  David and Paul at Prague Saints are great help! - Next time we go, we have to allow time for a  day  excursion over to Bratislava - the land of the beautiful boys of BEL AMI!  Thanks to everyone who made our trip enjoyable and all the new friends we made - we will see you again soon!
