-HOTEL SURROUNDINGS + FREE TIME-
Karlovy Vary is a worldwide known spa resort founded in the 15th century by the Czech ruler Charles IV. According to a legend Charles IV was pursuing a deer while hunting with his company and the animal, driven onto a rock, jumped from the cliff onto the place of today´s colonnade. When the animal hit the ground it hollowed out with its hooves a spot where the first healing spring appeared. … The place of the fabled jump is reminded by a statue.
The oldest spa colonnade of Karlovy Vary is only 50 m far from our hotel.
You are permitted to drive a car in the spa zone, i.e. directly to Hotel Ku?era, only on the day of your arrival and departure. Therefore it is always better to take with you the printed booking confirmation from our hotel. As soon as you get your rooms, you can park in our car park, approx. 60m from the hotel. The fee is 150,- CZK per day. Although it isn´t a supervised car park, you don´t have to be worried about your car. The spa zone is guarded by private and police cameras. If you want to be sure, however, we recommend you a supervised car park in a near sanatorium (approx. 6 minutes walk from our hotel) for 150,- CZK per day, eventually the underground parking (10 minutes walk) for the fee 100,- per day.
There are spa sanatoria very close to our hotel which offer a complete spa programme. You can let yourself be spoiled with underwater massages, mineral and whirlpool baths or with mud wraps, for example. We offer spa procedures in our accommodation packages, as well.
You can have a swim in indoor and outdoor swimming pools. Especially the swimming pool in Thermal Sanatorium has a beautiful view over the spa zone of Karlovy Vary.
FREE TIME
An interesting idea for an afternoon trip could be Diana view-tower. You will get directly there by a cable-car, its bottom station is only 100m from our hotel. We would recommend you to undertake the journey back on foot. You will walk on a forest path and see statues and small monuments reminding the history of Karlovy Vary.
There are also plenty of opportunities for sports activities. Very well-known and favourite are for example two golf courses situated on the outskirts of Karlovy Vary (Golf Club Karlovy Vary is in the direction of Prague, golf club Cihelny is at the main road to Pilsen).
There is also a wide variety of indoor and outdoor tennis courts. We will be pleased to advise you where to play beach volleyball, squash etc. Bowling lanes are 10 minutes on foot from Ku?era Hotel.
HIKING, CYCLING
Although Ku?era Hotel is situated in the very centre of Karlovy Vary, only few steps will lead you onto a forest path for hikers which runs through the protected landscape area Slavkovský les (Slavkov Forest). If you prefer cycling, we will lend you mountain bike and you can follow cycling paths to the romantic Svatošská skála (Svatos´ Rock) or to the castle Loket (10 km from Karlovy Vary). History fans shouldn´t miss the castle Be?ov (25 km) with its splendid shrine of St. Maurus.
If you really want to see the whole town of Karlovy Vary and its surroundings at once, we recommend you to go for sightseeing flights. Karlovy Vary Airport is approx. 6 minutes by car from our hotel. If you prefer to stay on your feet, you can try a ride in a horse carriage.
