Corinthia Towers, Prague
We stayed in the 5* Corinthia Towers Hotel in Prague last year and although we had a lovely time, I do have mixed feelings on the place.
My husband and I needed to book a hotel in Prague as we were going there for a wedding. We scoured the internet for deals on hotels and after hours and hours and looking at endless deals and reading reviews we decided to book one of Lastminute.com's "Top Secret Hotels". Now I am always wary of booking somewhere and not knowing the name of the place, but we did do our homework. As the hotel was a 5* there were less hotels that it could actually be, so we compared all of the details and worked out which hotel it was before we booked. A slight risk, but we were right and it saved us about £100.00.

Advantages: A good insight of SATS Disadvantages: none
Panorama. Monday 12th May 2008. 8.30pm-9.00pm.

Vivian White reports on claims that schools in England are given too many tests.

This week is England's week for testing Y6 children using SATS.

Advantages: Great view Disadvantages: Waste of money
As some of you will know from my other review I visited Prague recently. I didn't include Prague Castle in that review because it seemed like the review was already really long but as it is one of the main attractions.
This review is going to be really mixed because there is so much to Prague castle. It's really like going to a little village because there is so much to the castle and the area around it and if you want to see it all then you'll need to spend the entire day there.
-Tickets-
I bought a Prague Card and got the short tour free on that but if you don't have a prague card the prices are:
Short Tour- 250 crowns (£9.22)
Long Tour-350 Crowns (£12.90)
You can also pay to get into individual attractions and discounts are available, as well as family tickets.
(Please not that the currency in Prague is changing so ...
