Excellent hotel Ostende in the center of Karlovy Vary overlooking the river Tepla near thermal springsreviewed 15.02. 201.18:0.9 views edited by user: 17.02. 201.16:46 excellent view from the window to the river Tepla, next to the thermal springs in the center of Karlovy Vary. Hotel Ostende, which you want to return to. A big plus of the hotel is its location: the center, the nearest source of Vrjidlo Geyser is only 200 m. You walk along the Tepla River, which does not freeze even in winter. My husband and I specifically chose a hotel closer to the thermal springs, which is especially important in winter (do not run up and down the hills). The view from the river view room is very beautiful. Don't be stingy for the extra charge (the other rooms face the courtyard on the wall). The room is large and spacious and has everything you need. Good comfortable bed (we have a double bed), snow-white bed linen (changed 1 / 4 days), always clean towels (changed every day), large spacious closet (and all things, and suitcases can be placed), LED TV with Russian channels , mini fridge. Nice bathroom with bathtub and 2 sinks which is handy. Excellent Czech cuisine and friendly staff. Natasha in the restaurant simply adorned our vacation, creating just a homely atmosphere. Breakfast - buffet: an excellent selection of cheeses, ham, fresh vegetables and fruits, eggs, sausages, steamed vegetables, oatmeal, muesli, fresh farmer's cottage cheese, yogurt, dried fruits, always hot pastries, tea, coffee. For dinner, a good selection of several salads, tarts, a hot dish on pre-order. The choice is trout, salmon, telapia; Segedin goulash with dumplings or potato pancakes, etc. Always good pastries, fresh fruit, tea, coffee. We took half board to be free for a day of walking and sightseeing. You can take full board, as well as treatment. On the 2nd floor there is a medical center with various spa treatments. I will note the friendly staff, kind director Ruslan. In Karlovy Vary there is the Orthodox Church of St. Ap. Peter and Paul (on Kralja Jiriho street). Opposite the hotel there is a theater (Divadlo), the Museum of Karlovy Vary, in the sanatorium Lazne III (near the 11th source) twice a month there are concerts of the Karlovy Vary Symphony Orchestra, concerts of organ and chamber music in the Church of St. Mary Magdalene. Sports matches are held in the Arena sports center (bus 2). In January there was a hockey match between the team of Khimki, Russia and the team of Karlovy Vary. KV team won with a significant score. Near the hotel there is a stop of the funicular, which will take you to a wonderful mountain, from where there is a very beautiful view. There are very good neat paths for walking in the forest, there are restaurants (both at the stop of Yeleny Skok and on Diana) with exotic dishes from wild boar, deer, pheasant, soup in bread, etc. Prices are 1.5 times higher than average. There are many good restaurants and cafes in the city center. Prices in the center are slightly higher. In a cafe, further from the center, prices are already lower. For example, in the cafe Slovansky Sklipek on the street. Sadovaya, 35 you can have a great lunch (Czech, German cuisine) for 15 euros for two. Always fresh meat and fish (pork knee, ribs, trout, salmon with broccoli). There is a dietary menu (boiled). I didn't like the pastries. The cafe in the Atrium mall is very simple but cute and inexpensive. It is worth trying Becherovka by visiting the David Becher Museum. Give to try 3 times 20 ml. You can add it to the cafe in the same museum. Cozy and inexpensive. Bistro Sunshine nearby on D. Becher Street serves excellent duck with red Moravian cabbage. In the shopping centers of Varyada (terminal bus 2), Globus, Tesco, you can wander through the boutiques. The Marks and Spenser store in Varyad has a good selection of men's and women's clothing, decent quality, reasonable prices. From Karlovy Vary it is very convenient to go on excursions to Germany, to see the ancient German cities. Travel close and cheap (Travel, Renata). You can rent a car. You should definitely go to Prague, this is an amazing city with a rich history, palaces and castles, old houses, beautiful squares and a fabulous atmosphere. Wishes for the hotel: I would like to have an electric kettle in the room (especially when you come for 3 weeks) so that Wi-Fi works better. We have already rested in Karlovy Vary 4 times (this time we went with TPG, Terma met us). And we never got bored. This is a wonderful city, friendly people, amazing thermal water. The city of Karlovy Vary and the Ostende Hotel, which you want to return to!
