Flight. Aeroflot flight from Sheremetyevo-2. There were no tickets to Karlovy Vary, so we flew Sheremetyevo - Prague. It turns out that on regular flights it is not customary to applaud the pilot for a successful landing. The cost of packing luggage at Sheremetyevo is 200 rubles/suitcase. Prague met with sunshine and +4°С. There we were met by car (by the way, a Mercedes) and taken to Marianske Lazne (about 160 km). Of course a little expensive (about 100? ), but very convenient and comfortable.
Hotel. Was renovated in 2005. Clean, tidy. We had a family room (surcharge around 180? ). Two rooms, two TVs, lots of wardrobes and chests of drawers. The bathtub is huge. Electronic safe in the closet.
There were large pillows - they told the maid and they changed us to smaller pillows. The food is normal. Alcohol is paid extra. We took breakfast and dinner. If possible - take only breakfast, because in pubs and restaurants for those 12? x 2 = 24? (approximately 24? x 24.90 u003.597K & amp; #269; ) you can eat a very satisfying and varied meal with a glass of beer. The hotel is 95% German and 5% Russian. The younger Germans arrive on Friday in cars and leave on Sunday. It turned out that almost the entire hotel was inhabited by German "pensioners". It turns out that German nursing homes conclude contracts with hotels in the winter (off season) and bring their pensioners to improve their health. Everything is in the black - hotels do not stand idle in winter, and pensioners are satisfied.
Treatment. Immediately you need to perceive treatment as a bonus to rest. Then everything will be great. The procedures are prescribed by the doctor during the conversation.
You tell him what you would like to treat - he prescribes and naturally recommends several paid procedures that will "definitely help" you. The treatment schedule can be adjusted. We had 20 paid each. That is, approximately two procedures a day. It is better to do them in the morning, the earlier - the more free time you will have.
Water. From the hotel to the colonnade - 10 minutes at a very leisurely pace. The colonnade is open from 6:00 to 18:00. In March, half of the springs are closed for the winter. So we only tried 3 types, the ones in the heated colonnade. The doctor prescribes water. Springs work on the colonnade: Rudolf (the doctor prescribed for both of us), Karolina and Krestovy. In the summer Lesnoy is still open, etc. Everything is worth a try. Buy a couple of 1.5 liter bottles from the store (cheaper in the supermarket) and make a damper supply of water. Although walking to the sources is very wonderful.

Pick up a map of the city from the info center (free of charge) - it helps a lot. The city wakes up at about 9-10 o'clock and falls asleep after dark. Take cash euros or dollars with you. Change them in shops with signs 0% commission. one? = 25-24.80 K& amp; #269; . Withdrawing cash from the card is very expensive (1000 K & amp; #269; = 1915 rubles). If you pay by card, then the rate is approximately 1.615-1.59 rubles per kroon. You will need cash for pubs, restaurants, souvenirs and those shops that do not accept a card. We met one such store - with confiscated goods (clothes at VERY low prices). So in all shops and supermarkets they accept both the Master and the Visa. Excursions, car rental, gas station you can also pay by card. We tried to dine in different restaurants
