Prague attracts thousands of French people every year: expats, digital nomads, students or employees on mobility. The Czech capital offers a high quality of life at prices still affordable compared to Western Europe. The rental market is however tight, especially in central neighborhoods, and the language barrier complicates procedures for non-Czech speakers.
2 months rent (sometimes 3 months)
12 months minimum
October-November

Where to live based on your profile and budget
The expat favorite neighborhood. Tree-lined streets, Art Nouveau buildings, trendy cafés. Central but quiet, it's the ideal address for young professionals and couples who want to enjoy Prague without the tourist hustle.
Former working-class neighborhood turned hipster. Alternative vibe, authentic bars, lively nightlife. Cheaper than Vinohrady while staying close to the center.
The up-and-coming neighborhood. Former industrial area converted into a modern hub with offices, restaurants and green spaces along the Vltava. Popular with startups.
Neighborhood in transformation, well served by metro. Mix of old buildings and new residences. Practical for families with children.
Quiet residential neighborhood, close to embassies and the technical university (ČVUT). Very popular with expat families and students.
Thanks to Amelia, our family found a house in the Porto region, 8 minutes from the company where I work. It was not easy because we had the constraints of a big dog. Professionalism and availability were there throughout the process.

A big thank you to Lily for finding us our apartment for our university exchange in Seville. I highly recommend her, she was by our side until the end!

Sarah has found a shared room for our son who is going to study in Sweden. The most incredible thing is that this was done in 24 hours, in a tense rental market! Some will say it's a fluke but it's not. Sarah listened to our research, immediately contacted her network and made us a proposal the same day, a proposal that we definitively validated the next day after a video visit. Sarah was very responsive, very professional and really nice. She has all our gratitude for this tailor-made service.

Very satisfied with Michelle' services, we were able to find a very nice house in the center of Saint Paul. The support and the progress points were really perfect from start to finish and our criteria were respected. I highly recommend Michelle' services

Expect between €450 and €700 for a studio, €650 to €1,000 for a 2-room apartment, and €900 to €1,400 for a 3-room apartment.
Add 2 months deposit and about €100-150 monthly charges (electricity, heating, internet). For the first month, plan for 3 to 4 months rent in total.

Vinohrady and Karlín are expat favorites for their quality of life and proximity to the center. Žižkov offers a good price/location compromise. Dejvice suits families or students near ČVUT.
Avoid Prague 1 (too touristy and expensive) for long-term rental.

Searching alone, expect 3 to 6 weeks. With a Remoters hunter, the average time is 2 to 3 weeks.
The most difficult period is September (university start). Prefer October-November for more choice.

Landlords generally require:
📍 Passport or ID card
💼 Proof of income (employment contract, pay slips)
✉️ Sometimes an employer letter
A local guarantor may be required if you have no history in the Czech Republic.

Yes, especially on Facebook groups and listing sites like Sreality. Red flags:
⚠️ Request for transfer before viewing
⚠️ Abnormally low prices
⚠️ Landlord "abroad" who cannot come in person
⚠️ Lease only in English without official Czech version

The Prague rental market is tight and most listings are in Czech (85%). Landlords often prefer local tenants.
A French-speaking hunter based in Prague knows the market codes, can negotiate in Czech, and helps you avoid frequent scams. Average time: 2-3 weeks vs 4-8 weeks alone.
