Buses leave every 2 hours, daily from 7 am to 9 pm. Seat reservations are necessary.

All trains and buses from Prague to Český Krumlov go through České Budějovice. We highly suggest taking a bus from České Budějovice to Český Krumlov’s main bus station, autobusové nádraží, a ten-minute walk to our door. From Český Krumlov’s train station, vlakové nádraží, take a scenic walk downhill into town (35 minutes to our door). Or take a taxi (100-125 CZK – 5 EUR per car).

So many festivals, so little time…What’s there to get jazzed about? Jazzky Krumlov (Sept 8 – 11). Our personal favorite is The St. Wenceslas Festival (Sept. 24 – 26) – Don’t miss Burčak, the first wine of the season, the gathering of the Václavs, or the fruit dumpling eating contest!
