Excellent hotel. I was actually lucky - Sanatoriums.com booked room 101 - it’s above the main entrance overlooking Metternich’s villa. Thank you very much. As always, excellent food, attentive staff. I attended an organ concert and an absolutely wonderful performance by a quartet. The main thing is that the hotel is not on a hill and there is a transport stop nearby. Nearby there is a group of good shops: Tesco, Kaufland, Lidl and even smaller ones. I took two meals a day plus drank tea during the day (my own kettle). I didn’t even have to go to the cafe additionally. I needed to get hungry in the evening. The cook prepared the dinner according to choice, very well. And in the morning you could choose whatever you wanted, but always a delicious dessert or a piece of charlotte. I'll lose weight at home. The prescribed water had an excellent effect. Two factors that I specifically note: 1. In the Continental they do inhalations with Vincentka water. Very effective for my throat. I wanted to go to Moravia for this water, to a resort, but here everything is there. 2. Separately ordered and paid for baths with CO2. This is absolutely a miracle. I asked around - no additives. First, hot water is poured. Then half from the bottle is natural. And within half an hour - you'll be in excellent bubbles. You feel like you are being reborn.Negatives
In mid-January there were snowfalls and near zero. We were unlucky with the weather. But she used transport on her way to the colonnade. Payment at the entrance is 20 CZK. About five stops - and there you are. You can drink water on the spot and store it in a bottle (this is in case of bad weather, so that, for example, in the morning you can get some water for procedures). Suggestion - At the reception it would be nice to have a schedule of buses 3.5 and 7 towards the Colonnade. The fact is that 3 and 5 do not run on weekends, and 7 has a special schedule.Positives
Thanks to sanatoriums.com I was able to book at a very low price!! two weeks of stay everything was wonderful! Room cleaning and use of the wellness center is unlimited from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.Negatives
True, I rate the food satisfactorily. What is called tasteless variety? And you also had to beg for fruit. They placed one unfortunate vase so (near themselves) that no one would dare come up and take it! And there was no such thing as lunch. They were only from NVT (breakfast + dinner). And if the guest wants to change dinner for lunch, it’s not clear what happens. The guest sits and waits for everything per hour, a teaspoon at a time. NO ONE from the staff speaks RussianPositives
Clean rooms, friendly staff, sauna, swimming pool, in the city centerPositives
For more than 10 years, our family visited the sanatoriums of Karlovy Vary, and this year we tried to come to Marianske Lazne for a change. Therefore, the “positive” in comparison: 1. Your own ski resort for beginners within walking distance. 2. There are many park areas where our children, when it snowed, made forts, played snowballs and sledded down the hills. 3. Near the Continintal Hotel there are many different restaurants and cafes with high-quality service and more affordable prices. 4. Also nearby are supermarkets Kaufiand, Lidl and others where you can buy goods with euros and give change at a good rate in Czech crowns. 5. At the exit from the road onto the highway there is a gas station with low gasoline prices. 6. I was very pleased with the excellent Czech cuisine at the Continental Hotel, especially the dinners, which also included first courses. 7. I liked the service during procedures at the Continental Hotel. Very friendly staff. The staff tries to schedule all procedures at a time convenient for us, one after another.Negatives
1. The hotel has poor TV reception. 2. At dinner, all drinks are paid, including tea. Moreover, prices are higher than the city average. This information is not provided when booking a hotel. 3. In winter, mineral water is available only in the Colonade (city center, 20 minutes walk from the hotel, open until 18-00) or several hotels.Positives
Wonderful hotel - the best of a significant number of hotels I have visited. Not pretentious, but cozy and well equipped. In addition to the general list of procedures, you can add cosmetics (I took a full body wrap with Dead Sea mud). Great job by the chef. I had half board and it was more than enough. In the morning there is a traditional buffet - several types of sausages, delicious pastries, desserts. In the evening - according to the menu, with a choice of the type of soup, main course and dessert. Everything is delicious!!!!!! Thank you Sanatoriums for the opportunity to book such an excellent hotel at a reasonable price. By the way, I was not charged extra for daily use of the small pool and two types of saunas. The resort fee was also already included in the total price. An additional plus is that the sanatorium is located on a flat area, next to a trolleybus stop that runs regularly. Opposite is a park area.Negatives
There are no cons. But it should be taken into account that a decent distance separates the sanatorium from the sources - both from the colonnade and from the sources in the park. The nearest springs are located in the Crystal Palace sanatorium. Free admission. Not everyone knows about this. Thanks again.Positives
Excellent location, comfortable, calm environment. Quality treatment. We are trying to come again.Negatives
This is just a wish to diversify the breakfasts a little.Positives
We vacationed in December, the city is wonderful, the hotel is conveniently located, the rooms are not luxurious, but quite cozy. The trolleybus stop is located on the opposite side of the street. There are 4 stops to the colonnade with springs, the ticket costs only 20 CZK. In the summer, it is quite possible to walk to the center on foot, at a calm pace for about 10-15 minutes. There is a magnificent park opposite the hotel. Treatments are of good quality, treatment times are convenient.Negatives
I don’t recommend ordering pork dishes in a restaurant; they don’t know how to cook it. But the fish, poultry and desserts are very good. The sauna and pool are, of course, a little cramped. I would like the sauna opening hours to be extended to at least 9 pm.Answer from Spa-Hotel Continental
Уважаемая Ольга, благодарим вас за посещение нашего отеля, нам очень приятно, что вы оценили наши службы и уникальное расположение отеля на против парка. Так как бассейн и сауна относятся к отделению велнес центра за который отвечает его персонал в свое рабочее время по этому в целях безопасности наших гостей это отделение закрывается в 19:00 С радостью вас будем приветствовать в нашем отеле. С уважением,

The location of the hotel, cleanliness everywhere, communication of the staff. The friendliness of the surrounding people - resort residents and resort guests.Negatives
No negativity.Positives
Excellent hotel. Excellent staff, attentive and responsive. Particularly noteworthy is the team performing the procedures, led by senior nurse Dasha. They work with soul, try very hard, are very attentive to patients and their requests, they perform procedures on time, without delay. You can feel the kind human attitude. I would especially like to thank the head nurse Dasha, she is a very attentive and responsive person, and in addition corrects mistakes - the doctor’s shortcomings. The food is tasty and varied. It was very good that you could choose vegetables for breakfast: there were tomatoes and cucumbers, as well as boiled vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, peas).Negatives
The doctor leaves much to be desired, to put it mildly, but to put it simply - zero, an empty place, does not want to delve into the patients’ problems at all, he prescribes procedures automatically. But we come from far away, with problems, and want to get treatment! Instead of a doctor, the same Dasha could prescribe procedures! And make it even better! I would like a healthier diet: more vegetables and whole grains (buckwheat, millet, quinoa), and not just white rice, pasta and potatoes on the side.Answer from Spa-Hotel Continental
Уважаемая Ирина, благодарим вас за посещение нашего отеля, очень приятно, что вы оценили работу нашего персонала в частности нашей медсестры. Нам так же приятно слышать, что вы оценили наш ресторан, над блюдами из свинины присмотрим. С радостью вас будем приветствовать в нашем отеле. С уважением,

Good location. Nearby is a park, a forest, a 20-minute walk to the colonnade, and within 5-10 minutes the Kaufland shopping center. Excellent work by the medical staff, with the exception of the doctor's appointment. Special mention should be made of the excellent work of the waiters Victor and Olga, who helped us with everything. The room was cozy and quite clean. Towels were changed regularly. The windows, as per our request, faced the courtyard, so the room was quiet. It was very convenient to have a safe in the room, which was included in the total price of the hotel package, as well as a sauna and swimming pool.Negatives
1. Despite the fact that we were paid for 16 procedures, the doctor prescribed us only 14 procedures, although we objected to such a arbitrary reduction. After this, we were forced to contact the reception desk, where they immediately met us halfway and restored the number of procedures. 2. Having visited other balneocenters, we discovered that our balneocenter did not have disposable sheets, which greatly puzzled us. How are hygiene standards ensured here? This question remained rhetorical, as it arose at the very end of our stay at the hotel. 3. A big inconvenience is the lack of an electric kettle in the room. 4. The absence of a blanket on the bed reduces the feeling of comfort and order in the room. 5. Dinner had to be ordered each time, and translation from German was required, and the choice of dishes was limited and did not always correspond to our taste preferences. Therefore, the next time we stay here, the service package should only be taken with a buffet breakfast, without lunch and dinner.Positives
I liked everything very much. Tasty food. Nice staff. Treatment - a little bit of everything.Negatives
Location. Very noisy with the windows open.Positives
I liked the hotel, the staff is conscientious and friendly, the food is delicious and plentiful.Negatives
It's noisy when the windows are open; you can't close them because... no air conditioning. It would be possible to do without a doctor. The pool is small, but people from other hotels also came there. This, of course, is already superfluous.Negatives
Diversify the menu, I’m really tired of eating eggs every day. And very salty food.Positives
We have been vacationing in Marianske Lazne for several years. For the second time we chose the Continental Spa Hotel. . I like the location of the hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed our morning walk to the colonnade; the walk takes from 40 to 50 minutes. During the day we went down to the park to the Rudolf and Ferdinand spring or went up to the Monti Hotel and walked through the beech forest. The atmosphere in the hotel is very cozy, the rooms are comfortable and bright, the staff sets a good tone for vacationers with their positive mood. Special thanks to the medical staff, very qualified employees. The food is good, thanks to the chef for the delicious desserts.Positives
Wellness is excellent - staff and treatment.Negatives
There were problems with the placement - the first room had windows on the wall, no daylight, the second without the Internet. The receptionist woman is rude. It seemed like she just didn't want to help. Only after the intervention of the general manager did I finally, on the third day, get a normal room.Positives
It’s quite enough for a relaxing family holiday, no extras, there are spacious rooms, plus parking, the car is under control. The food suited the whole family, and the restaurant staff were willing to help if necessary. There are plenty of procedures, there is a swimming pool - this is a natural plus.Positives
I liked the hotel, I recommend it, it’s not on a hill, you go to the right - the park, Ferdinand’s spring, to the left - 15 minutes and already in the center, at the main colonnade. Everywhere is clean, comfortable, everything you need for treatment is available, including gas injections, baths, inhalations, physiotherapy, and massage. It’s good that there is a swimming pool, after walking you can swim and relax.Positives
The girls at the spa are wonderful. Always ready to help and advise. Thanks to them for this. Especially Dasha.Negatives
The negativity started from the very beginning, with the placement. The standard room turned out to be a "birdhouse" under the roof. It’s hot, stuffy, you’re constantly hitting the ceiling. Let's go for dinner, the food is simply disgusting. It felt like what was left over from lunch was served for dinner. We immediately refused our room and food. With great difficulty we were given a superior room (naturally the price was higher, which we were not prepared for). After 2-3 days, we were told that the price of our room had increased by another 5 euros????? When the final payment was made, the price had increased by 20 euros. For what? For two telephone conversations in Karlovy Vary. When I asked how to call, you could probably say telephone rates. For 20 euros I could call half of Europe. The holiday left a bad aftertaste. I know you won’t publish my impressions, but people should know this and be prepared. When I was choosing hotels, I read all the reviews. We will definitely come to Marianske next year, but to the hotel we chose, bypassing them.Answer from Spa-Hotel Continental
Добрый день Наталья! В забронированном вам номере действительно нет кондиционера и Вам любезно был предложен номер повышенной категории (на более низком этаже). Но естественно этот номер по цене дороже забронированного Вами - это в порядке вещей. Далее Вы сказали, что отказываетесь от питания, мы пошли Вам навстречу и пересчитали стоимость пребывания. Мы считаем, что с нашей стороны не было никаких проблем и администрация отеля предлагала Вам помощь в решении проблем. С уважением, менеджер отеля Continental Kristýna Polednová!
