Czech & Slovakian currency...help please!
I am wondering, is the Euro also accepted in Prague & Bratislava?
If not, can you get the currency at your home bank or would it better to go to a bank there?
Is the Canadian dollar a good exchange there?
Thanks very much!

sorry, meant to add more before i hit post.
In several trips to Prague I found that I was able to use Euros for purchases from many street vendors for essentially the going exchange rate.
For restaurants, hotels, taxi, bus/subway, etc it is necessary to have CZ crowns.

I am also Canadian and ordered Czech and Hungarian currency from my bank at home. We thought it would be easier if we had some currency to get us to the hotel from the airport when we arrived rather than having to deal with finding an ATM or place to exchange currency as soon as we arrived.
