Going to Prague

A question about : Going to Prague

Hi,

I'm off to Prague this evening and wondered if anyone knows where the best place to exchange pound sterling to Czech crown is?

I would ideally like to get Ј50 exchanged here in the UK and the the rest exchanged once I'm over there as apparently you get a better rate?

I'm off to town in an hour to sort it out so any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

• I ended up exchanging Ј52.20 at M&S which gave me 1400 crown. The exchange rate was 26.8. Does anyone know where the best place in Prague is to exchange the rest of my spending money? I'm staying at Hotel Andel in the Smichov area. Thanks

• Dear all,
  First of all, sorry for my english, im originally spanish but i would do my best explaining for i just happened.
  I work for a luxury hotel And thus i got some good tips, in this case 5050 ukraine money, i wanted to exchange in check crown or euros. After i checked rates in internet i found out The right rate for it, so i should get 471 euros. I was walking around visiting all office a negociating best rate to exchange for, i was going to The new office with my last best offer recieved in The previous office. So in The first place The offered me 370 euros, And in The last 430.
  Well, in The last place The gave me by accident 590 euros because she confused between croatia And ukraine currency. I went out from the office really happy And 100 meters away she came running be home me claiming she did a mistake. at the end closed a good deal by 430, after all at The beggining i was offered 60 euros less.
  The thing is they used to extorsionate people, And when both parts accept the transaction, i dont have why to give back The money, something i did cause she was about to cry.
  I would love you guys give me your opini!n about this incident.
