Why many Prague Airbnbs can’t store luggage

Unlike hotels, most Prague Airbnbs don’t have a reception or dedicated luggage room. Hosts often:

  • live outside the city,
  • have back-to-back bookings with cleaning in between,
  • are not allowed by building rules to keep bags in the hallway.

That’s why the answer “sorry, we can’t store your luggage” is very common – especially in popular central districts like Prague 1 and 2.

The good news: you still have several ways to handle luggage and enjoy your day. Below we compare them and show when specialised Airbnb luggage solutions make the most sense.

All luggage options when your Airbnb can’t help

1. City lockers or luggage shops

You’ll find lockers at Prague Main Train Station and several private luggage shops around the centre. Good if:

  • you travel light,
  • you don’t mind an extra stop,
  • you are comfortable navigating trams with bags.

The downside: you must return to the same place to pick everything up before heading to the airport or station.

2. Stay close to your Airbnb with your bags

Some guests simply keep luggage with them – in a café, restaurant or mall. It can work if you have only one small suitcase or backpack.

With multiple bags or kids it quickly becomes impractical and you end up guarding your luggage instead of enjoying Prague.

3. Book luggage transfer from the apartment

A driver comes to your Airbnb, seals and scans your bags and later meets you directly at Prague Airport.

This is the only option that removes luggage from your day completely.

How apartment-to-airport luggage transfer works

  1. Book online
    Choose your pickup window, enter the Airbnb address and flight details.
  2. Coordinate with your host
    Let them know our driver is coming – they can be present or leave keys in a lockbox.
  3. Hand over your bags
    We seal each suitcase, scan it and send you confirmation with photos.
  4. Meet at the airport
    You go straight from the city to Václav Havel Airport, where your luggage is waiting at the agreed time.

Why this is ideal for Airbnb guests

  • No need to carry bags through staircases and narrow corridors again.
  • No returning to the apartment just to pick up suitcases.
  • Perfect when check-out is early and your flight is in the evening.
  • Great for families and groups with multiple bags.

Popular Airbnb areas in Prague – and what to expect

Old Town & Lesser Town (Prague 1)

Historic buildings, lots of stairs and almost no space for luggage rooms. Hosts often rely on self check-in and can’t meet you in person. Luggage transfer is usually more convenient than hunting for lockers.

Vinohrady & Žižkov (Prague 2–3)

Residential houses with shared entrances and strict building rules. Storing bags in the hallway is often not allowed, so hosts say no even if they’d like to help.

Newer apartments in Prague 5–8

These areas may have more modern buildings and elevators, but hosts still rarely stay on-site. Transport to the centre and back just to move bags can easily eat an hour or more.

FAQ – Airbnb and luggage in Prague

Should I ask my Airbnb host again about luggage storage?

You can always double-check, but if the listing already says “no luggage storage” it usually means there is genuinely no safe or legal place to keep your bags.

Can I leave luggage in the building hallway?

In most Prague apartment buildings this is not allowed because of fire safety rules. Hosts risk complaints from neighbours or fines, so they will usually say no.

Can Voyli.one pick up luggage if I’m not at the apartment?

Yes – as long as your host agrees and there is a way for our driver to access the building (for example via reception, a code or a lockbox), we can collect your bags even if you’ve already left.

What if my Airbnb is far from the airport?

Distance doesn’t matter – our service is priced per booking, not per zone. In many cases it’s still cheaper than taking a taxi twice just to move luggage.
