Visited Astoria (for the third time) in March 2018. There are many changes for the better in the sanatorium: it is a buffet, a large selection of meat, vegetable, and cereal dishes. Lots of different salads. You can make some yourself and season them with sour cream, yogurt, olive oil, etc. as desired. Vegetables and fruits are always: citrus fruits, apples, pears, pineapples. Natural juices. 2 wonderful coffee machines appeared! There is also hot chocolate. Another wonderful change is the appearance of a tea room, where there are 4 (!!!) samovars and different teas. On every day of the week you can drink 4 types of tea from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. There is black, green, herbal, there are lemons, milk, i.e. Everything has been arranged for convenient and comfortable tea drinking, for which a special thank you to the sanatorium! There is also a new procedure - a salt room, in which you can breathe salt vapor for 45 minutes. The kindest and sweetest nurse, Yana, gave me this procedure; her smile made even 2-hour oxygen therapy (she also did it) not seem long and tedious. I would like to mention Renata, m/s, who releases parafango. Caring and efficient! For the third time I meet at the sanatorium with Dr. Yaroslava Kraboova - a true professional in her field! How she knows how to accurately collect anamnesis, on the basis of which she prescribes tests and procedures. There is no need to worry, there will only be benefits! Wonderful work of the cooks and waitresses, who, like bees, make sure that your table is clean and tidy. The cooks cook very tasty!!! And also, Wi-Fi is now available throughout the resort! In the room, of course, too. The password will be given to the receptionist Ian, who will help you bring your things to your room, also a friendly young man. I recommend the sanatorium. I hope to visit it again myself.

But there is also a small fly in the ointment...unfortunately... On March 11, having arrived at the sanatorium in the morning, I had an appointment with a nurse (she was plump with beautiful long hair flowing almost to her toes), who began to scream so much at me when I was slow in answering the question of how tall I am. I politely asked her to lower her tone, to which she did not react until I said that I would record her speech on a voice recorder and let management listen to it. Instantly the person became nice and friendly, maybe... I was also surprised by Regina at the reception. Last year, sweet and cheerful, on the day of my departure, March 21, she almost gave me a heart attack. During the day, I went to the reception desk several times to find out about the check-out time from the hotel. I ordered a transfer to the sanatorium. com. I came after breakfast, before and after lunch, before and after dinner. Regina said that they had not received information about the departure and that I myself had to call sanatoriums.com from my room by phone for a fee. Already at 19 o’clock I approached again, almost alive from frustration (the plane was in the morning) and the receptionist, seeing my such a deplorable state, took pity and, looking into the computer, printed out the information about the transfer for me, which was sent to the hotel at 12 o’clock in the afternoon. I don’t know why this happened, they explained to me that it was as if my namesake lived in room 303, because of whom there was a misunderstanding. I hope so. I lived in room 209.

I was treated from March 6 to 20. I really liked it. And how Dr. Krabkova received it. She listened carefully and prescribed procedures. All the employees with whom I underwent the prescribed procedures were very attentive and friendly. The room is cleaned every day. The girls in the dining room are just lovely. The food is good. varied. Thanks to the cook. And in general, a big thank you to EVERYONE. I would like to come to your hotel again.

Lucky with placement. But we had to ask for a room with two separate beds. When booking, I had this type of accommodation in mind, because... We were traveling with a relative, but I didn’t see an opportunity to celebrate it. Good breakfasts, salads, soups, side dishes. Friendly service staff. Sufficient treatment. You can visit the theater and music events. No language problems.

Negatives

The massage at the hotel leaves much to be desired. There is not enough salt in the salt room (the floor and ceiling are not covered with salt panels, as in other places). The cooks in the restaurant do not know how to cook chicken, turkey and pork - they are tough and dry. Almost all the time we ate boiled beef or fried fish, which of course is not bad. They cleaned every day, but the dust was not always wiped off.

Very good location of the resort. They prescribed excellent procedures (doctor Belov took into account all my wishes. The food is dietary. It’s great that there is a tea room where you can drink a cup of tea with honey, lemon, sugar. Responsive staff. Special thanks to Sanatoriums.com for organizing the trip and for helping with choosing a sanatorium!!!

Negatives

I booked the transfer in advance in October 2017, by the time of the trip the transfer price turned out to have decreased, but I found out about this only three days after I arrived at the sanatorium from Irena. Probably, it is possible to warn about promotions in advance.

I really liked it! The food is varied, will satisfy the most demanding taste, the tea room is beyond praise. Responsive and attentive service from medical staff.

Negatives

Since residents of other buildings, in particular Volker, are being treated in this sanatorium), they need to think about how to organize a place where they could leave their things (maybe cells like in storage rooms).

We really liked everything. Many thanks to the medical staff, especially the attentive Dr. Belov. All procedures were performed on time and efficiently, but a little early, which was not always convenient. The M1 massage is especially good. The quality of food and service staff are also at the same level. We recommend treatment to everyone at the Astoria sanatorium.

Good day to all! When choosing a trip, I read a lot of reviews and I hope my review will also help. I read the reviews and decided to leave my comment too. I agree with much of what was written above. My husband and I vacationed at the resort from 02/12/2018. to 02/22/2018, in the Astoria sanatorium. A big plus is the location of the hotel! Colonnades within walking distance! Thermal water is supplied to the sanatorium. There is a wide range of treatment procedures, you hardly have to wait in queues. Gas injections, gas. baths. Charcot shower with sauna. Hydrojet massage My husband and I felt a lot of the benefits of the treatment itself! I would like to thank the attending physician. Doctor: Belov! He understands everything perfectly, is attentive to requests, smart and friendly. Since on our first visit we were assigned a massage in room 1. (unfortunately I don’t know the name of an elderly, bald man), instead of 15 minutes he did 10. To my remark he answered me in a rude manner, look at the clock carefully, besides, I don’t think that this Call it a massage - the tongue doesn’t turn, it’s just stroking!!!!!! very unfriendly. The next day, the doctor replaced this massage with a CHARCO SHOWER, for which I thank him very much. Based on a few observations, I would like to say a huge thank you for your excellent attitude to work, honey. Gas injections to sister (elderly woman). Young aspiring nurses should learn from such people (especially in the laboratory, a plump girl with long black hair, no hello, no goodbye already at 6 in the morning, she is in no mood!!! And one more wish. It is probably necessary that visitors know the best workers and the worst (make them a badge indicating the last name, first name), then it will be easier to describe who exactly, and not describe them as I do... There are also small comments, but more about them below. And I want to say that our expectations were justified! rested and the treatment was very good! Thank you! I recommend it to everyone. Sincerely, the Pankratz family

Negatives

And now about the sad thing... Dear Mr. Director, pay attention to the RECEPTION registry! this is your face!!! It’s sad that from the first minute you see dissatisfied faces! Teach them how to say hello and smile! Taking into account the not so high prices for tours, I would still like to see more vegetables and fruits! And there is not enough variety, the same thing, it is clear that it is dietary, but still I would really like it. And so that your wonderful massage therapists work like massage therapists - after all, this is a procedure that is very necessary for us vacationers! Make WiFi, otherwise it doesn’t work very well... And I would like the price of the tour to include free access to the pool and sauna on weekends. I think this will make the Astoria sanatorium a big plus! We’ve already written about the pillows in the rooms, I won’t repeat myself! As for the rest - 80% enjoy your holiday everyone!!! Buffet - excellent!!! but it’s quite rightly noted - you come on time, there’s a queue, if you come later the choice is no longer the same. But nevertheless, everyone found something for themselves. I wrote down the shortcomings. And most likely they are addressed to the administration. I hope to come to Astoria next time and see changes for the better.

A very qualified attending physician, polite and courteous medical staff and waitresses in the dining room.

Negatives

Room cleaning. One shift cleaned well, the other very superficially, without vacuuming. The glasses were not washed. The tables were not wiped down. There is a layer of dust on the heating radiator. Dining room. Several times the second shift did not have enough declared dishes due to the influx of visitors not staying at the hotel. Tea room. It closed a little before 20-00. The second shift does not have time to drink tea after dinner.

The Astoria sanatorium was recommended by my friend, a doctor, who has been vacationing there for the fifth time. The very fact of multiple holidays in this sanatorium (I met a married couple who came for the 11th time) speaks volumes. The medical facilities, location, and work of the staff are highly rated. I would like to note the food separately: a wide variety of meat and fish dishes, I was especially pleased with the watermelons, melons, pears, plums, etc. in February. Thank you very much

I really love the city of Karlovy Vary. For me he is like a fairy tale. This is not the first time I’ve come. Thank you for your help. Everything was done very quickly and professionally. I was left with pleasant memories!!!! PS You can send messages to clients about discounts, only in advance since we wait almost two weeks to receive a visa and plus we still need to buy tickets. And how can you get to Karlovy Vary by train?

There is no negativity. We are waiting for direct flights to Karlovy Vary at a normal price.

The sanatorium has become much more respectable after the renovation and improvement, accommodation and treatment are still at the highest level. The hotel staff is very friendly, the medical staff is top class, the procedures are excellent, the treatment is varied. The service in the dining room is attentive and friendly. Special thanks for the tea room - wonderful and necessary! Thank you so much for the treatment!!! in the future we will be treated only in Astoria

Negatives

Compared to my previous stay at the hotel, the food in the dining room has changed and not entirely for the better, alas... I would like a greater variety of dietary dishes. less heavily fried sausages and bacon. And the previous dry rations were more varied and tasty than the current ones.

The sanatorium is very conveniently located, right opposite the Mlyn Colonnade. Close to any source. This is essential if the weather is rain and snow :) Food is a buffet. All dishes are prepared for those who are being treated, stewing, baking. Water procedures - with mineral water, supplied to the sanatorium.

Negatives

Procedures begin at 6.30. Changing something is very difficult. One workplace where they create a schedule and change it if necessary. And there's always a line there.

We came for treatment to the sanatorium with our small dog (3kg) and paid for her stay for one week 133 €, this is very expensive!! We have not yet paid such a price for it, and we travel often.

The hotel has a tea room, which is good. However, it is unclear why dessert and pastries are in the dining room. We wanted to take a bun with us for tea, but they reprimanded us. We think this situation is absurd.

Many thanks to the site. Special thanks to Evgeniy for his help with the booking. In comparison with the completely disastrous 2016 (we were not the only ones even thinking about changing the sanatorium), in 2017 everything was surprisingly good. Thanks to Dr. Belov for his professionalism and attention, as well as to all the medical staff. Thanks to the nutritionist for the personal approach and for the charlotte. The waitresses are great. Food and room cleaning are at a good level.
