I had always found a great book or two every time I went there!

This place is fantastic for book lovers who read in English (and some German and Czech) and people looking for the best setting for their bookstagram. There are fiction and non fiction books in different genres, and I found some amazing gems, like Edward Gorey's grim illustrated stories and several Calvin and Hobbes comic collections. Inside, shelves and tables and all kinds of flat surfaces are covered in books and a winding staircase takes you to an underground floor with soft light and furniture that just invites you to take a seat. Books are a bit pricey, but considering the central location, I believe that's expected. 😷 Masks are required. ♿ There's an elevator next to the staircase, but the occasional step makes the place wheelchair inaccessible.

I love this bookshop; it has all the smells and chaos you want from a good one. Their selection is huge, diverse, and spread across 2 floors that you can peruse at your leisure. The staff is helpful, but won't interrupt you as you get lost along the shelves, reading the backs of every book as you go. It's a delightful experience, and in a magical little corner of Mala Strana. Definitely worth a visit.

A nice enough store full of English books, but I found books and magazines in German as well. Some of them are used and some are new. The store has a huge underground floor where one can sit in comfortable armchairs and enjoy the books. Definitely a good choice of genres, fiction, fact as well as graphic novels. However I found that these books were kind of overpriced, especially surprising were the used books that were too expensive. The store is located in a quiet street in a beautiful area at Mala Strana so the location is an advantage.
