Location and treatment.Negatives
Fruits only apples and oranges. Bananas sometimes, there was only enough for 6-7 people. There were no vegetable juices. The coffee machine often did not work. I rested for 18 days and received only 4 massages. The hotel description says: entrance to the pool and sauna is free, it turned out Once a week one hour sauna at the hotel and the city swimming pool can be reached by public transport.Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan
Upon arrival at the hotel, the client was informed that in the package he bought 1 visit to the pool for a week and 1 visit to the sauna for 5 days. It is not true that only apples are for breakfast. There are 2 types of apples, oranges, bananas. Everything was fine in the purchased package, which included 4 massages for two weeks.

good price, very satisfied with all applicationsNegatives
Breakfast was not so good, times until 10am, 9am only leftovers on the breakfast buffet, no hot water, no fruitAnswer from Spa Hotel Krivan
Throughout breakfast, the waiter replenishes the missing assortment. We have written everywhere in the restaurant that everything is replenished within 5 minutes. If the customer had come exactly at the moment when the other customers had finished choosing an assortment, the waiter would certainly have added it. Throughout breakfast, hot water is available in a large silver cylinder, which has plenty of hot water. I don't understand why the customer didn't ask if he couldn't find something.

100% excellent vacation. The staff is simply gorgeous. People are professional in their work. What I liked most about Brown was the young man who worked in the restaurant, he was very attentive and courteous. I would also like to mention Nicole, she coped with all the procedures perfectly. Bravo Nicole and Brown!!! You are the best !!!Thank you for a great holiday and treatment.Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan

The hotel has just a great treatment...and is in a beautiful location..the food is not good, the only drinks available in the morning are tea and coffee..there is no kettle in the room...you can't use a laptop...the sockets are so weak...you are left without light.Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan
The customer writes that only coffee and tea are served for breakfast. The opposite is true, we serve coffee with or without milk, white coffee, 3 types of tea, 2 types of juice, water with lemon. The customer did not complain about anything during his stay. Due to improper handling by the customer, there should not be any kettles in any room.

Location, service, cuisine, comfort correspond to the status and cost of a four-star hotel. I recommend it to people over 50 and those with limited ability to carry out heavy loads.Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan

The treatments were carried out well and professionally. The individual departments were clean and overall the process was well organized.Negatives
The stay in the "hotel" was a disaster: the receptionist felt bothered by questions, the service in the dining room was terrible. If you arrived 1 minute early, you were rudely reminded to stick to the times, if you arrived on time, the tables were not set, there was no drink, the coffee machine didn't work and so on. The breakfast was monotonous: 3 types of sausage, 1 type of cheese, a bit of vegetables (cucumber, tomato, pepper). The same sausage every day, the same cheese. Plus juice from a tetra pack, milk and if the machine worked, 2 types of coffee: with or without milk. The chef was a man like a bear, but unfortunately he smelled like it too. Overall, the kitchen was a no-go. Room: unfortunately, no pictures can be added, so I'll try to describe it. There are large gaps in the suspended ceiling in the hallway and bathroom, not because the panels were shifted but because they were too small. the carpet was closed, in some places the floor underneath was visible. The door to the terrace was held together with a Spax screw at the handle. Both doors were leaky. The bathroom was OK, but only 1.5 x 2 meters and the exhaust air in the windowless room only worked for 30 seconds. The elevator sometimes only worked after being persuaded to do so. Overall, you really have to question whether this website should be able to afford such a sanatorium.Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan
If the customer had such problems during his stay, I don't understand why he didn't come to the hotel manager and report. For breakfast, 2 types of juice and water with lemon are served. There are 4 types of salami to choose from, which alternate. There are three types of cheese. In the coffee machine there are three types of coffee, one without milk, one with milk and then white coffee. Then there is also chocolate in the machine. We are sorry that the customer did not enjoy his stay here, but let's ask ourselves why the customer did not come to the reception. The elevator works perfectly, I don't know what the customer writes.

The quality of the procedures is at a satisfactory level only because there is only one person who is responsible for all the procedures including the massage, just not forgetting that he is an impeccable and very responsible man. The location is very good, it is in the center and it is very quiet, the hotel also has its own parking.Negatives
From the negative I can say that Wi-fi in the room is very bad, I was staying on the 4th floor. And the towels are changed once a week, it's very difficult because there are no towels given during the procedures, and you have to clean the room for them.Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan
Towels are changed every third day. Wifi is good in all rooms. We didn't notice anyone telling us that the wifi was not working in the room. Thank you for your rating.

Thank you, everything was fine, this is the second time I’ve been traveling with your company, one small wish: the trip to Prague was good, but maybe you can organize a trip to another cityAnswer from Spa Hotel Krivan
Good afternoon, Thank you for your positive rating. Unfortunately, the trip to Prague is carried out by the travel agency SANATORIUM, and we, as a hotel, cannot do anything about it.
Positives
We had a great view of Marienbad from our rooms. The hotel's location is perfect: central but still quiet. The rooms are large and pleasantly warm (April). When the weather is good you can sit on the balcony and enjoy the view. The treatments are good, Nikol from the Balneo Center tries very hard and does a lot, but she shouldn't do all the work alone.Negatives
Parking is only available for a fee and is expensive. Beds and mattresses are much too hard, I regularly had back pain when I woke up in the morning. The food is so-so, some dishes taste good, but we had potatoes as a side dish for 6 days in a row and that just can't be healthy. There are always 4 options for dinner, that might sound OK but in reality it's strange. You either eat potatoes or dumplings or something cold for dinner. It was a mystery to us why they didn't offer rice, risotto, couscous, pasta or something similar. Many people have already written about the salad. You don't go hungry but there's no talk of enjoying the food either. They cut corners at every corner in this hotel, the rolls are counted, you don't see dessert, and they hardly refill anything. What is eaten at the beginning is left behind. There are no kettles in the rooms, so if you want to drink tea in the evening you have to buy one. The doctor prescribes treatments but automatically recommends another hotel (Svoboda), where you can get other treatments for an extra charge. That could still be in the interest of the Krivan Hotel if you prefer Svoboda on your next booking...Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan
Response to the review: 1. Parking behind the hotel is very limited and mainly for the disabled. When the customer asked if there was a parking option, we definitely made him aware of the fee and offered him a parking space 10 minutes walk from the hotel. Even if it still seemed expensive to him, the reception certainly offered free parking in any department store. The reception is pleasant and on the contrary advises the customer according to his possibilities. 2. Food: The food in the hotel is varied, even with the side dishes that are available and it is not true that the guest had no choice and had to eat only potatoes for 6 days. Pastries are certainly not counted and they are still in abundance, the dessert is baked every day directly in the hotel, so it is not true that there is no dessert and that cannot happen. As for the refills at the breakfast buffet, the waiter always refills. In case several people come at once, there is a note at the breakfast buffet that the buffet will be refilled within 5 minutes. 3. There are no kettles in the rooms and we do not advertise them. 4. The doctor mentions the procedures at the Hotel Svoboda only if the procedures are not performed at the Hotel Kriváň at the client's request.

I really liked the room. And nurse Nicole at the treatment center deserves special praise.Negatives
During the 2 weeks of my stay, the towels were changed only 2 times. I didn't like the food. The breakfast buffet was from 8 to 10. But at 9 o’clock there was practically nothing. Lunches and dinners are not tasty. The only plus about this is that you don’t overeat like in other hotels. And a very important note about doctor Bortnik. He does not examine visitors, does not ask at all about your illnesses and your condition. I didn’t even measure my blood pressure during the initial examination. The reception lasted about three minutes. This is no good! In Pacifica (I vacationed there 9 times), doctor Ruzhena conducts the appointment thoroughly, for about 20-30 minutes.Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan
The client changed towels every third day, we know this because we keep records and the client changed towels even earlier than after 3 days at the reception. The doctor only consults with the client; we do not conduct examinations with the doctor anywhere. It's a big difference. If the client had comments about the consultation and wanted to undergo a more extensive examination, the client is always offered the opportunity to go to see a doctor.

1 sanitary conditions. there is dust and dirt in the medical department 2 kitchen - no choice of salad. They save money everywhere. instant coffee. 3. The staff behaves inappropriately. They always lie. 4. treatment.. one name. all they do is very little.Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan
We do not offer a salad buffet anywhere. If the client didn't have enough, it could be added. It's written all over the restaurant. Hygiene in balneology is in perfect order. The other massage therapist was on vacation, so the colleague was there alone, but this does not change the quality of the services provided.

Everything is fine considering the length of stay. An excellent combination of cost and quality. I would like to express my gratitude to the restaurant workers, Nika, the maid, as well as all the staff for their attentive attitude to our wishes. For the future, I would like to receive a full course of 2 main procedures. But this requires a longer stay.Negatives
Unfortunately, we were not able to buy a couple of additional excursions, although they were indicated in the program (Prague evening on Wednesdays and Karlovy Vary)Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan

The staff works great, the location of the hotel is good, close to the springs. Nice walks. The girl in the treatment room does a very good massage, conscientiously. She brightens up all the shortcomings of the treatment department. Works well, responsible. All staff are patient and responsive. Products are fresh. They bake delicious cupcakes. The service in the restaurant is good. It’s clean.Negatives
The mattresses are hard. The first 3 nights it was simply impossible to sleep, then we got used to it ( Food: you can cook tastier dishes from the same products! Especially omelet!

The hotel's excellent location near the colonnade and the city center, cleanliness everywhere, friendly staff, convenient schedule of procedures.Negatives
the food is below any criticism, like in a cheap Soviet canteen. Besides the fact that everything was prepared unprofessionally and tasteless, from semi-finished products, the food was never hot. Even the water for tea and coffee was only warm, not to mention the main dishes. The famous Czech dumpling was dry, cold, not appetizing and more like a piece of old bread. The food is very poor, monotonous and definitely does not correspond to a 4-star hotel.Positives

Dinner in the evening was not edible, salad was already put out in the small bowl, very soft and looked decayed, smelled bad, (didn't eat) main course just slapped on the plate, meat dry, no tea in the evening, just cold water, it doesn't matter what, but no supplies, I always have to ask if I'm missing bread or a piece of cake. Never come back.Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan
The customer did not complain about anything during her stay. We don't understand this later reaction. If something happens in the restaurant, the waiter will make up for it, you just have to give him a minute, he knows, he only delivers hot food. Then he gets to work and fills in everything that is missing. It's not about that everything is there at once and the last guests eat cake or hard bread just because it has been in the restaurant for two hours. The cake or bread is constantly replenished. Thanks

Very all rooms, jakuse is still broken I think they don't want to repair itAnswer from Spa Hotel Krivan
Unfortunately the hot tub doesn't depend on us. The repair is very lengthy and demanding for a German company. The company doesn't have time. It's definitely not that we as a hotel don't want to fix this. We don't understand where the customer came up with this. However, the customer received compensation for the hot tub. Whether he used it or not is no longer the hotel's problem, but the customer's.

The location of the hotel is good, next to a trolleybus stop. Colonnade with springs nearby. I really liked the work of the medical staff (or rather, only one girl works there), she’s so good, diligent, dexterous, she does massage well. Procedures are carried out conveniently every day and on weekends. We had a nice room with a separate bedroom and a balcony. The hotel itself is small.Negatives
Although we liked the procedures, we did not like the so-called balneological center itself. Basement room, musty air, no buttons to call staff, very dangerous especially in the bathroom. Jacuzzi is not working. The cuisine, the food is almost always prepared delicious, but the choice is very small, there are a lot of spices. The rooms are carpeted, I don't recommend going there if you are allergic to dust. Superficial cleaning.Answer from Spa Hotel Krivan
