Wow wow wow, I've stayed at quite a few hotels at this point of my life, but this was honestly one…read moreof the best experiences I've had (the other one being a hot spring resort in Costa Rica). Karlovy Vary is one of the three cities that make up the Bohemian Spa Triangle in west Czech Republic, so if you are planning to stay a night or two at Karlovy Vary, you definitely need to book a hotel that comes with spa and sauna. Hotel Carlsbad Plaza is known for this and the booking should automatically get you access to their spa/sauna (though all the procedures, medical treatments, and doctors' consultations will cost extra). We were immediately greeted by a staff who offered to take our luggage, followed by an offer for glass of juice or wine. Afterwards, a kind lady also showed us where our room is. This is helpful if you have a room at the 5th floor or above because floors 5-8 is a new building and require a different elevator once you get to floor 4 from the lobby. The room was VERY spacious. Extremely nice view during the fall season especially. Bathroom comes with very nice shampoo and body wash. They provide with you bath robes that you can wear to the spa/sauna. They also provide you with fresh fruits when you first get to your room, which was on the hotel. There is always someone who comes in late afternoon to remake your bed and drop off some chocolate unless you opt out. Overall, service here was 5/5 impeccable. Their sauna was amazing! They have multiple sauna rooms, each with a slightly different temperature. They have a steam room as well. We spent about 1.5 hours trying out all the rooms and by the time you are done, you feel like you have just ran a marathon without actually running it. This is the best way to get runner's high without running. Their breakfast is from 7AM-10AM. Absolutely amazing! Extremely wide selection of food. Their omelettes and fried eggs are to die for. Their tea station is solid. They have actual fresh tea leaves and you package it into your own tea bag before you place it into your own pot. Honestly, the thing I missed the most about was the breakfast here. In all honesty, this hotel definitely had the best breakfast I've ever had out of all the hotels I've stayed at so far. It is also located very conveniently. Karlovy Vary is not a big city. Its main town is basically one long street. This hotel just so happens to be located at the end of the street and you can easily walk to the other end in 15-20 minutes while tasting all the hot spring waters along the way.

This is such a wonderful hotel. Had the best time from the moment we've checked in. Everything was…read moreabsolutely perfect: the service, room, spa treatments, food, location, etc. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend checking out their bar (ID Bar) downstairs. Live music and a super relaxed atmosphere every night!

This place has a great location right in the heart of Karlovy vary, close to many hotels,…read morerestaurants and the main shopping area. It is also a close walk to either bus station out of Karlovy vary. The pool itself is rather small and boring, only about four lanes and a bit crowded. The Saunas were in the locker room and were also small and crowded since they only fit 2-4 women at a time (and the ones in there are not concerned about getting out so you can have a turn). The prices are very affordable here, for an hour and a half of lap pool, dry sauna, wet sauna, whirlpool, showers and locker for 120 crowns. Where they get you is charging 80 crowns per person for a towel. And you are not allowed to reuse it if you make multiple trips here. I really only came here because I was already getting a facial done in the same building and wanted to see how nice the pool areas were. If you're looking to be impressed don't bother coming here!

While in Karlovy Vary, I wanted to visit the Grand Hotel Pupp…read more The Grandhotel Pupp was a major location for the 2006 movie Last Holiday starring Queen Latifah.....a great movie that I love to watch all the time!...... It also appears in the 2006 James Bond film Casino Royale as Hotel Splendide in Montenegro. It has been cited as inspiration for the Grand Budapest Hotel in the movie of the same name. So this landmark, being as beautiful as it is from the outside had very reasonable rates (I checked online for a future visit)...on a good day, regular rooms can be had for about $150/night. Not bad for the hotel that hosts the annual Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.
