Where to stay in Koterov
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
Pilsen keeps the beds. Koterov offers a protected village core rather than a hotel row, and the sensible plan is a room in the city with an afternoon spent among the houses that Vesnická památková rezervace Plzeň 2 - Koterov protects. The Chapel of Saint Wenceslaus in Koterov anchors that walk.
Sluneční hodiny v ulici V Kamení tells the time in the street it names. Nothing here rents rooms.
