Spa Hotel Purkyně

I visited the city to relax and unwind. I spent a lot of time at the hotel, which was very comfortable. Everything was very clean, and I could enjoy a great view from the window. I received excellent hospitality. I would like to stay again if I have the opportunity.

The hotel is old and has a very warm charm about it. However, my room felt incredibly dated, almost as if I was living in 1980. One complaint I have is related to my bathroom. When I arrived there was a sanitary seal wrapped around the toilet bowl which said that the toilet had been cleaned and sanitized. When I went to remove it, I found piss already in the toilet. It didn't make for a good first impression after a long day of traveling. There's also no AC in the hotel and it was incredibly hot. There really should have been fans/small AC units in the rooms as the heat was quite brutal. The restaurant is OK, but it is on the highest floor and is certainly the warmest part of the hotel. Windows being open did nothing. Again, fans/small AC units really should have been here. I also had many many problems with the WiFi; sometimes it worked well, other times not at all. It was really frustrating. That being said, the location is absolutely perfect for wandering around Karlovy Vary, but getting to it and leaving from it with luggage is a total pain as the road is not accessible for cars.
