What conditions can be treated during a stay at this resort?
One of the basic methods of treating patients in Karlovy Vary is the regulated intake of local mineral water, depending on the patient’s complications. Specialists here help treat issues related to the digestive system, restore imbalanced metabolism, and also treat diseases of the musculoskeletal system.
Upon arrival at the medical sanatorium, it is recommended to present a doctor’s extract and recent tests in printed form. After the patient is registered, medical staff schedule an appointment with the appropriate specialist. However, examinations can also be carried out on site. Services available to the patient include blood tests, an electrocardiogram, other laboratory studies, and consultations with a surgeon, gastroenterologist, and cardiologist. After collecting the medical history, the doctor forms a complete course of treatment and procedures.
Specialists note that the optimal length of stay at the spa resort is 21 days. For elderly people, extending this period is recommended.

Travel Guide to Karlovy Vary
The resort is rich in attractions. Among them is the Mill Colonnade in Neo-Renaissance style, built in the 19th century. The building is a composition of allegorical sculptures, as well as an elegant balustrade. In the evening the colonnade is brightly illuminated, and a symphony orchestra performs at its foot.
An important place in history is held by the Castle Tower. It is the only remaining fragment of the castle built by order of King Charles IV. The structure, previously restored in Baroque style, rises above the Market Colonnade. A restaurant is open for guests, its interior decorated in medieval style.
To capture the incredible beauty of the local landscapes, climb to the top of the Diana Tower. You can reach it via 150 steep steps, a funicular, or an elevator.
In addition, you can visit one of the oldest temples in the country — the Cathedral of St. Mary Magdalene, built in the 14th century. The white Renaissance-style building will impress visitors with its murals, the variety of sculptures, as well as a unique wooden sculpture.
Fans of fine arts have the opportunity to visit the painting gallery, where more than 150 works by Czech painters are exhibited.
Tourists are offered a wide range of hotels that meet all contemporary requirements for comfort and service. It is recommended to book rooms in advance and confirm the time of arrival in accordance with the duration of the treatment.

How do I get from Prague Airport directly to Karlovy Vary?

What happens if my flight arrives late and the buses have stopped running?
If you arrive in Prague after the last bus, your Admiral.Travel consultant will suggest a private transfer or an alternative via the city bus station. All details are agreed before departure so that on arrival you know exactly what to do next.
What is usually included in a Karlovy Vary package?
Typically, the package includes return flights, group transfer airport – hotel, accommodation in a spa hotel or sanatorium, your chosen meal plan (half board or full board) and travel medical insurance. In some offers, a basic set of spa treatments is already included in the price.
Which meal plan is best for a spa and treatment stay?
For medical spa stays, half board (breakfast and dinner) is often recommended, so that you can keep your midday schedule flexible for treatments and light snacks. On request we can arrange full board or diet menus, where available at the hotel.
What currency is used in Karlovy Vary and how is it better to pay?
The official currency of the Czech Republic is the Czech koruna (CZK). Hotels and most shops accept bank cards, but it is useful to have some cash for small expenses. Some places take euros, but the exchange rate is usually less favourable than in banks or exchange offices.
What type of sockets and voltage are used in the Czech Republic?
The Czech Republic uses European sockets of types C and E with a voltage of 230 V. Most devices used at home in Moldova or Romania will work without an adapter; if in doubt, check the specifications of your equipment.
Is Karlovy Vary suitable for children and families?
Yes, many hotels in Karlovy Vary welcome families with children, offering spacious rooms, pools and a calm, green environment. If you are planning serious treatment, it is important to discuss the programme with your paediatrician, but as a destination for family relaxation the resort is very comfortable.
Do I need medical insurance for this trip?
Yes, we strongly recommend having valid travel medical insurance for the entire duration of your stay. In Admiral.Travel packages, insurance is usually included, and on request it can be extended to cover sports, chronic conditions or higher insured amounts.
What can I do in Karlovy Vary if the weather is rainy?
