The Best Hotels Near Na Spilce, by the Record

Marienbad, as Antonioni fans will insist on calling it, has been drawing people to its thermal waters for as long as anyone can remember. This luxury hotel stitches together several historic Art Deco buildings with modern additions, filling the result with contemporary art and keeping the rooms deliberately calm. The Pürovel Spa is the main event for most guests, and the restaurants and bars handle the rest of the unwinding.

The chandeliers in the dining room are not decorating the space so much as overwhelming it, which sets the tone for a stay at this grand old Czech spa hotel. Karlovy Vary's mineral waters are the official reason to come, but the Pupp itself, baroque and slightly idiosyncratic, is the real draw. The spa leans atmospheric rather than clinical, the casino is an Eastern European classic, and nothing about it feels like a modern luxury operation. That is entirely the point.
