Karlovy Lázně, Prague

Karlovy Lazne is the largest club complex in Central Europe, and one of the coolest places in Prague to hang out.

One entrance fee gets you a ticket to "5 clubs on 5 levels". Each floor has its own style, from disco to hardcore trance; enough variation to keep even the most ardent clubber entertained all night.

The interior of the Karlovy Lazne building dates from the 14th/15th centuries. Original mosaic tiles adorn the walls and floors in some areas, while preserved Roman style spa pools (minus the water!) serve as two of the dance floors.

The five levels consist of the entrance level Music Cafe, Discothèque for lovers of 70's disco revival, Kaleidoscope covering hits of the 60's-80's, the Paradogs Club for the best of house, trance and techno, and finally a chill out zone in the top floor café, playing a mellow selection of music and featuring cushions, rugs and soft lighting.

Karlovy Lazne Dance Club really gets going after 10pm at weekends, so to avoid lengthy queues get there early.
