Café is equipped with chess tables and a library where there are archive books and magazines on the topic of chess in Czech, Russian and German, which you can borrow and go through while enjoying  great coffee and fine wine.

Books can be purchased here as well, along with themed gift items and greeting cards.

Pleasant ambience is complemented by free internet access and on-line projection of interesting chess tournaments.

In summer you can enjoy the game on the hotel terrace, which offers a peaceful atmosphere with a beautiful view of the Franciscan Garden.

We welcome not only chess enthusiasts, but also lovers of good coffee, wine and peaceful atmosphere. Come to see us either for sport or for relaxation.

Where else you can find delicious coffee, good wine and chess in one place? Only at the EA Hotel Julis****!
