Beautiful city, plenty to do day and night and pretty compact, so no need to hop on public transport to do the essential sights. We had a fantastic time - cost per person at the beginning of July was about �90 for flights (BMI baby from Birmingham) and �70 for 3 nights accom. We decided on self catering apartments, and were lucky enough to get 4 twin bedders in the same building - fairly basic but very clean and 5 mins from Wenceslas Square. You can do it MUCH cheaper if you're prepared to go in hostels (around �6 per night), but hotels are considerably more. Let me know if you'd like any more info.
Only downside would be that at the beginning of March it could still be pretty chilly...
