★★★★★2 months agoVisiting the Dancing House was such a lovely experience. The views are simply stunning — sitting there and looking out over the Vltava River and the city of Prague is something really special, especially in the evening. It’s one of those places where you just want to slow down and enjoy the moment. The food was surprisingly good. Everything we tried was delicious, well prepared and beautifully presented. You can tell care goes into both the menu and the overall experience. Combined with the views, it makes for a memorable meal. Definitely worth visiting if you’re in Prague and want great food in a unique setting with amazing views.

★★★★★3 months agoDancing House is a masterpiece of architecture with a truly marvelous and unique design. The flowing structure is iconic and unforgettable. The café is spectacular, a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings. But the highlight is the rooftop bar, where the view is simply apotheosic, breathtaking and worth the visit on its own. Overall, an incredible experience combining design, atmosphere, and unforgettable views
