The Cold War Museum

The museum is located under the Yalta Hotel on Wenceslas Square. You need to book in advance on their website. The ticket is 400CZK (330 for students and for kids 120CZK). For that price, you will get a 2+hour full quality tour trough a former secret nuclear fallout shelter built during the communist regime. You will get a chance to see the rooms of the shelter and hear some interesting stories about each one. (Surgery room, Room of Border guards, the Room of Public Security, the Spying Room and the Operator Room). The tour guide is a highly professional one, well informed about the whole WW1, WW2, and communist regime periods, as well as the functions of military and the police forces from those periods. And also has a great sense of humor, so you won't be bored by his stories, trust me! The tour is also interactive. Highly recommend!

Great experience. The guide was not only very knowledgeable about the subject, but also very happy to talk about and answer questions about life in the Czech Republic today, which showed how different things are today compared to then. Overall a well spent couple of hours delving into a bit of the history of the Czech Republic

i’ve really enjoyed both of my visits here, i went recently and i had went last year. i had Stanislav as my tour guide on both times i had visited, and he made the tour very enjoyable with perfect comedic relief! the tour was very factual and had many chances for pictures and great customer interactivity with the bunker itself! the location can be a little confusing as it is located inside of a hotel, but i highly recommend this experience!

I have been to quite a few bunkers in europe from the eastern block. Bunker is in excellent condition. Never seen such a good explanation on the filtration system before. The map with the air defenses was very original. Guide was very knowledgeable and even shared stories of his grandfather. I do wish the other part that is used for storage was open.

A nuclear shelter located under a hotel. A very convenient location for tourists. Apparently there is another one further out which is larger and better. It was interesting but the guide was hard to understand and talked very fast. He was asked to talk slowly but continued to talk fast. Tour has to be booked online which I did but when I arrived they bumped my time to two hours later.

Incredible, especially for a history buff such as myself. It is a guided tour of the bunker underneath the Jalta hotel constructed during the communist era of Czechoslovakia. The highlight of the experience absolutely has to be our tour guide, Stanislav. He was informative and very knowledgeable, answering any questions people had. Most of all he was witty and made what would otherwise be dull (according to my friends) aspects of history interesting. As the bunker is underneath the hotel we struggled to find the entrance at first, though I do not believe that the attraction's rating should suffer for this as this was our own incompetence. Turns out it was quite clearly signposted by the hotel entrance. Being supposedly learned university students we should have spotted it. Booking is extremely easy, it is done online but you pay in person. We did not have to wait long for our tour as others have suggested. My only gripe is that you don't get to see the whole bunker as the largest parts of it are in use by the hotel itself, but as we already knew this before paying this attraction absolutely deserves 5 stars. Miluji tě Stanislav!

This tour was the highlight of our trip to Prague. The young woman who did our tour was very enthusiastic and we got an inside look into the Czech perspective of the cold war and life under communism. There were many artifacts and being in a real bunker made it easier to imagine what life was like back then!

If you're into the Cold War. Then this is a must do when in Prague. Our guide was very informative and knowledgeable.
