ASTORIA Hotel & Medical Spa

ASTORIA Hotel & Medical Spa comprises five interconnected buildings and is set directly beside the Teplá River, just a 2-minute walk from the hot springs at the Mill Spring Colonnade. Its sister hotel, Art Deco Wolker, has 38 rooms and suites. Meals and treatments are available at ASTORIA, approximately 300 m away.

The hotel is centrally located in the heart of Karlovy Vary, right next to the Mill Colonnade. The town is known for its traditional drinking cure and 12 mineral springs, with temperatures ranging from 30° to 72°C. The water is used for drinking cures, baths and douches.

The hotel serves a generous breakfast buffet, with lunch and dinner also available as buffets. Water, coffee and tea are included in the price. Special dietary requirements are catered for, including diet, lactose-free, gluten-free and vegetarian options. Separate and reduced-calorie diets are also available on request. A highlight is the cosy tea room, open from 11 am to 8 pm. Choose from a carefully selected range of teas and enjoy them in a relaxed setting – the perfect way to take a little time out during your stay.

The wellness centre is open daily from 7 am to 12 pm and 3 pm to 9 pm. It offers plenty of ways to escape the everyday, recharge and nurture body and mind in a relaxing, restorative atmosphere. The indoor pool (approx. 8 x 4 m) features an invigorating counter-current system, soothing massage jets and a relaxing floor-level whirlpool — perfect for floating and unwinding. A Finnish sauna, an aroma sauna and a steam room offer further ways to relax. The three experience showers provide special moments, with changing temperatures and fragrances for a refreshing cool-down, while the Kneipp path stimulates circulation and leaves you feeling light. After your wellness programme, three relaxation rooms invite you to switch off completely. You’ll find comfortable loungers and a tea-making station here.

The Medical Spa is available from Monday to Saturday, from 6 am to 4 pm. Led by an experienced team of doctors, therapists and a specialist dietitian, it offers comprehensive care tailored to your needs. The extensive range of traditional cure treatments also includes therapies using healing thermal water. Unwind with soothing underwater massages or revitalising CO2 baths, and enjoy the restorative benefits of parafango packs, lymphatic drainage, hydrojet treatments and salt therapies. Targeted inhalations support your respiratory system, while electrotherapy and therapeutic gas injections help boost your vitality. You can also benefit from therapeutic exercise, revitalising Gerovital treatments, soothing wellness massages and drinking cures using health-enhancing thermal water.
