Relax like an aristocrat or a world-famous movie star 

Spas have always been a popular destination for the European elite. Famous aristocrats, philosophers, and well-known artists have enjoyed luxurious comfort, a vibrant social life, and countless romances at them. Goethe met his beloved Ulrika for the first time in Karlovy Vary, the famous Beethoven, and Russian Tsar Alexander and Austrian Empress Sisi regularly visited to reenergize – and the tradition continues! Today, celebrities heading to the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival  adds to the annual excitement. In recent years, for example, Johnny Depp, Robert Pattinson, and Uma Thurman have all visited here. We leave it to you to write your own story here.
