Prague sees significant dip in tourist numbers (Radio Prague, 05-08-2008): Prague’s reputation as a tourist hotspot has been viewed as a given for years. But now, new statistics reveal a serious slump in visitor numbers. The reasons are the strong crown and apparently poor services. Can Prague reverse this trend? Or are there serious troubles ahead?

I’m also quoting:

“(…) the problem with Prague is that we cannot give to visitors a service that corresponds to the price levels we charge. So we became a deluxe, expensive destination, but our level of service is not deluxe!” (Tomio Okamara, member of the presidium and spokesman for the Association of Tour Operators and Travel Agents of the Czech Republic)
