Český Krumlov
República Tcheca.

Rybářská 35, Vnitřní město, 38101 Český Krumlov — central Old Town inside the Vltava horseshoe bend, 7 minutes on foot uphill to Český Krumlov Castle, 300 m to Náměstí Svornosti (Main Square), 850 m to the Rotating Amphitheatre, 1.6 km to the bus station (uphill on the way back). Rybářská is one of the cobbled fishermen's lanes that line the southern riverbank — quieter than Latrán across the river but inside the UNESCO core. Eggenberg Brewery 350 m, Egon Schiele Art Center 400 m, the Vltava rafting put-in at Plešivec bridge 600 m. Cobblestones throughout — wheeled luggage will hate you.

123 Plešivecká, Plešivec, 381 01 Český Krumlov — south bank of the Vltava in Plešivec, the residential local district 8 minutes on foot across the Plešivec bridge from the UNESCO Old Town. The river runs 50 metres from the door, the Vltava rafting put-in is 200 m at the bridge, the Eggenberg Brewery is 9 minutes uphill. Plešivec is the Krumlov locals' neighbourhood — quieter, cheaper coffee, a small Hruška supermarket on the corner — and the trade-off for being out of the Old Town is the property's killer view of the castle from the river-facing rooms. Bus station is 12 min uphill walk; €4 taxi from the door.

Kájovská 59, Vnitřní město, 381 01 Český Krumlov — central Old Town inside the Vltava horseshoe bend, on the cobbled lane that runs south from Náměstí Svornosti down toward the Plešivec bridge. 2 minutes on foot to the Main Square, 5 minutes uphill to the castle entrance, 4 minutes to the Egon Schiele Art Center, 6 minutes to the Vltava rafting put-in. Sits between two of the Old Town's busiest medieval pubs (Krčma Šatlava 100 m, Cikánská Jizba 200 m) — expect occasional voices on the cobbles until 23h. The bus station is 18 minutes uphill on the way back; budget for a €4 taxi if you arrive with luggage.

Soukenická 43, Vnitřní město, 381 01 Český Krumlov — central Old Town inside the Vltava horseshoe bend, on the cobbled lane that runs from Náměstí Svornosti north toward the Lazebnický bridge to Latrán. 1 minute on foot to the Main Square, 4 minutes uphill via Lazebnický bridge to the castle entrance, 3 minutes to the Egon Schiele Art Center, 5 minutes downhill to the Vltava rafting put-in. The shared balcony at the back of the property has the most-photographed castle view in the Krumlov hostel scene — the building sits on the inner ridge of the bend, looking straight up at the Castle Tower across the river. Bus station 17 min uphill walk; €4 taxi from the door.
