How can I get to Prague main railway station – Hlavní Nádraží from old town in Prague.

Yes, the trains go daily. The prices are here in this article: train ticket costs 43 EUR (1st class is 63 EUR), if you go in overnight train you pay extra for bed / couchette. Prices are in the table above.

In most bigger stations you can pay by credit card as well.

To get to the Main railway station from Old town depends on where exactly you stay. Usually you take a tram or metro, anyway, it is very close.

Hi Kate, one-way ticket without any discounts costs 1200 CZK (+- 43 EUR). Cheapest way is to buy ticket at the Main Railway Station. Note: If traveling in a group, ask for the group ticket discount.
