Pupp is an impressing hotel. We had 1 night in Kalvory Vary. The room was very spacious. It didn't have any view of the city, however it was very quiet and we slept very well after a few hours in the SPA. We experienced good service. The hotel also provided charging facility for our electric car. The only negative issue was that another couple was not treated well by the man in the Reception. He behaved very aggressive when he asked for ID card and then for passport. It's a pity that a very pleasant exerience is spoiled in such a way.

The building is an implausible creation in fin-du-siècle style. And if you like that style you've come to the right place. In many respects the five official stars are correct, even though this doesn't mean five stars +++. That would result in a way higher price category. In fact, for the price paid you get quite a lot of old days international flair and atmosphere on a "semi luxury" level. You will be delighted by the architecture, the interiors and the history of the building. Service level is fine. Staff kind, quick and polite. Since GH Pupp is spread out over several buildings, you can have a room on the other side of the river in the "Quisana Palace", which also (like many, many buildings in Karlovy Vary) is a fin du siècle palatial house. We stayed there and enjoyed it thoroghly. After parking our car on the Pupp parking lot (with great staff assistance) and checking in, we were escorted to our room. The room style congruent with the buildings exterior and age. Comfortable beds and all amenities. Just fine. We had dinner at Pupp's "Grandrestaurant". A nice experience, see my separate review. Karlovy vary is in fact a giant tourist trap - but most people who visit knows that... So the average cost level is of course higher than generally in the Czech republic. Knowing that, we felt that we in any case got plenty for our money in GH Pupp. For us, a touch of the old world was just what we wanted. And got. …

Stayed three nights in a suite on the riverside. Would definitely recommend the riverside, not sure we would take a suite again. Our room was comfortable and large. Good comfort; bathroom up to standard, large with both bath and shower. Surprising to have a smallest shower in such a big bathroom. A few design errors like both bidet and WC are too near to the wall although there is enough space to position them better. The charm of an heritage building comes with some noise problems: bad insulation from the room above us, we could nearly follow the conversation of our Spanish speaking neighbours. When they walked, apart from hearing the step, our ceiling chandelier was making strange sounds. The big plus of the hotel are: the atmosphere, the swimming pool area with saunas and hammam, the breakfast (large choice, great location, very decent quality). What we appreciated less is our dinner at the grand restaurant. This was really fast, we had a two course dinner in less than an hour. And not worth the price. …

The public areas on the ground floor are beautiful with fresh flowers and lovely art to browse. The breakfast was delicious with a great selection and plenty efficient staff on duty. We had booked riverside rooms and having seen the website photos and description had high hopes. The riverside view could be seen by craning your neck out the window. The rooms were tired and sparse and for the money we paid not great value. We were prepared to overlook this and enjoy our break until the last night when we had booked dinner for 4 in the restaurant as a special treat. There was zero customer service ,a catalogue of errors meant we left the restaurant after 20 minutes. No drinks offered, menus requested in English was too difficult, bread rolls dropped on the floor. Etc there were staff standing around clearly untrained while guests around us were frustrated asking for drinks and food. We did understand we are not in the UK and things can get lost in translation but this was a catastrophe. We did feedback to the General Manager and he was apologetic Perhaps a one off. Let’s hope so.Peter in the bar deserves a special mention. He is a star.…

We used the Beaches bar 3 evenings in a row, sat at the bar no problem, just to be told by the hostes Nicole that we can't sit at the bar on the Friday evening, as we do not have a reservation. If we knew we needed to book, we would have booked. Absolutely ruined our stay. Very upset as this was a birthday treat.

From entering the hotel till the minute we left 4 days later, we were treated like royalty. They even went as far as to provide us with a menu of our liking for the Christmas even dinner,( their set menu was fish oriented) The service both at breakfast and the dinner was excellent and with loads of smile and greetings every day. Tell me which hotel provides you with an HDMI cable at 10 pm? One thing I loved was the pillow menu. Yes they offer you whatever pillow you wish. The cleanliness of the place is out of this world, they were even cleaning the carpets in the foyer in the evening on Christmas eve . I loved it and will return.
