We had a GREAT experience here-- enjoyed a wonderful lunch at the cafe, afternoon concert in the palace, and tour of the museum. The staff was wonderful. I would recommend the cheeseburger and carrot cake. Also, the Lobkowicz white wine was delicious! this is a must see!

We had lunch at the palace as part of a Viking River cruise tour. The setting is amazing with views of Prague not to be missed. We had the honor of having William Lobkowicz come and tell us the amazing story of how the family regained possession of the palace and efforts to restore the palace. Seeing original manuscripts of...

Rarely does a family twice lose its lands and possessions through war and nationalization and have an opportunity to reclaim them. This happened to the Lobkowicz family. Forced to walk away to escape the Nazis, they got their holdings back after WWII only to lose them again to the Communists. When the iron curtain lifted they had a year to...

We were on a Danube Viking River Cruise and chose Lobkowicz Palace as an optional excursion. It was so enjoyable. We were served a private luncheon by palace staff, a short classical concert and then an audio tour of the fabulous artwork, music, instruments, weapons, etc. William Lobkowicz spoke to us after the concert to explain a bit more about...

We didn't visit the palace itself. We just went for the concert. Not particularly cheap at £15 per person, but the standard was very high, and was held in a lovely environment. Definitely worth doing.

The owners, William Lobkowicz, spoke to us as a group and it felt very comfortable and new even though I'm sure he's given this talk many times. We then had a concert which was just the right amount of time. We enjoyed the tour through the rooms. One of the...

I paid for the audio tour of the palace. The person narrating was someone from the lobkowicz family who never lived at the palace. His voice was droning and there was no humour or any sort of excitement. If you like boring facts abut the history of the family and looking at paintings of the family then by all means...

It is a beautiful place, the story is fantastic and the tour very well thought out. Eat at their cafe too. It is very good not over priced.
