I think so. I was there for a long weekend once (my friend's mom is from there and she took me) and I found the city (Praha) to be very learner friendly--there are bookmarks all over the place with phrases on them and paper sacks and such. A lot of the market stall owners speak German, but even if you want to say something in Czech I never found anyone to be condescending or belittling--they were always really helpful. And the people who work in the shops--they are really nice and very patient. I wanted a marionette (there are a bunch of places that sell them) and I think I ended up getting one in a place called Praha Blue. (There is a place called that but I can't remember what it was I bought there.) Anyway the shopkeeper was so patient with my indecision and entertained me with a little show with a few marionettes. In just a few days I picked up a fair amount of Czech phrases and a load of nice memories.

sorry?! like in bigger cities?I am definitely not a supporter of pragocentrism, but those prejudices just make me sick.
And to the topic:) We are naturally not as open as people e.g. in the south of Europe, but I know a lot of people who were in Prague and who say they met so many nice people here. Just visit and try yourself:)
I've only been to Prague, but the people were always nice.

I live near Prague and I know many cities where live more hospitable people than in Prague. For example Paris or New York..
