4 tips for a long weekend in the Czech Republic - discover the beauty of our country

Extended beauty weekend in Karlovy Vary

Treat yourself or a loved one to this little beauty spa that will relax your body and soul. Accommodation will take place in the beautiful premises of the Spa Hotel Thermal, which is a symbol of Karlovy Vary just like spa wafers or Becherovka.

You can enjoy not only a beautiful view of the historic city centre, but also a lot of greenery around. The hotel also has an iconic swimming pool, which is relatively freshly renovated. In addition, the Thermal is the heart of the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival every year.

And what can you look forward to this weekend? Thermal will spoil you with a number of pleasant treatments, whether it be lymphatic drainage of the lower limbs, aromatherapy massage or reflexology massage of the soles of the feet. It's probably no wonder that dozens of Hollywood stars come here every year.

If you feel like exploring the surrounding area, the hotel will be happy to help you plan a trip. For example, you can take a walk along the colonnade and taste the mineral spring, take a peek into the famous Moser glassworks, or conquer Loket Castle. In the evenings, you can blow off steam at the roulette table or karaoke bar

Family holiday in Mikulov

Now we have something for families with children. With this staycation experience you will go to discover the beauty of the South Moravian Region, specifically to Mikulov. Here you will stay in the design wine hotel Ryzlink, which was created by a reconstruction of an old farmhouse. The building boasts original beams, bricks, loft tiles and other materials that give the place just the right amount of charm.

Although you will immediately feel the beautiful historical atmosphere, modern style lovers will also enjoy it. This is also incorporated into the interior of the hotel. The children's corner will delight both children and parents, as their children will have a place to play. Excursions in the surroundings also offer plenty of activities. You can visit the Mikulov Castle, take a look from the lookout tower of the St. Wenceslas Church, or let yourself be carried away by the beauty of the lavender farm Starovičky.

In any case, the hotel's apt name is no coincidence. The hotel has first-class wines on offer, which can be tasted alongside excellent food. Apart from the tasting itself, you can also explore the hotel's educational wine park, where you can learn all sorts of interesting facts about the local grape variety. You will also see the types of vine cutting and vine management. One such nice feature is that each room in the hotel is named after a different grape variety.

Long weekend in the heart of Moravia

Whether you're looking to relax together as a couple or with the kids, you'll be welcomed with open arms at the Wine Wellness Hotel Amande. This place is also another paradise for wine lovers. In Hustopeče, where the hotel is located, there is a beautiful almond orchard, which is the only one in the Czech Republic. Every year, the Almond and Wine Festival is held here, which always attracts thousands of visitors. However, at Hotel Amande you can experience such a festival every day of your stay.

Immediately upon waking up, you will be treated to a sumptuous breakfast buffet with a choice of hot and cold dishes. With a full stomach, you can then head to the wine bath to enjoy a glass of wine. Hikers and walkers can go hiking or take the cycle path to the Nové Mlýny water reservoir, Velke Pavlovice or the Slunečná lookout tower. Thanks to the beautiful view, you will realize that one night here will definitely not be enough.

And if all this is not enough for you, you can spice up your accommodation with a trip to the swimming pool and water park, which are just a few meters away from the hotel. After all those kilometres you can enjoy a well-deserved rest in the sauna world, which is part of the accommodation.
