Guest Information

Dear Guests,

Thank you for booking the Jičín Tower. I hope you will enjoy your stay and spend many wonderful moments there. Please read the following information about your accommodation.

Jičín Tower is a somewhat unusual apartment in which you will find complete privacy. It is the oldest secular building in the city and a registered cultural monument. In its stone walls dwells the memory of five centuries past. If you stay quiet for a while, you might hear it tell a story. The Tower is also an art gallery that exhibits works by the leading Czech scrap art artist and Jičín native Petr Heber, a set of erotic drawings by the controversial French graphic artist Tomi Ungerer and other collectibles related to the town and its history. Please be respectful of this exceptional building and the exhibits and furnishings during your stay.

Parking

You can park your car anywhere on the street. Maybe right across from the lower entrance gate. Jičín is a safe city.

Entrance

To enter the Tower, use the lower stone staircase. Open the door by entering the four-digit entry code on the numeric keypad located on the wall to the left of the entrance. This will be sent to you no later than the day before your arrival. (If you do not receive it in time, please get in touch.) It will be valid from 16:00 on the day of your arrival until 12:00 on the day of your departure. Simply slam the door when you leave the Tower.

Coffee and tea are available free of charge. Coffee machines and fridges with cold drinks and beer can be found in the basement bar and in the first floor lounge. A microwave is located in the stairwell tube to the second floor.
