Very sharp, professional, helpful and friendly staff. I visited Karlovy Vary more than 10 times in the last decade and stayed in the other six hotels in the city. I can say for sure that hotel Imperial has the best accommodations among them.

Beautiful building in nice surroundings with lovely views over the valley. The reception staff were efficient and helpful. We ate in all three restaurants during our stay. The food was OK and fairly typical of the area but beware of extras! We were charged 5 euros for tap water, which frankly, is taking the p***. Also, 20 euro/night for parking a car on top of the room price seems excessive given that the hotel isn't in the centre of town.

The hotel is dated, needs updates but it has its own charm so many will like it as it is a traditional old style building All in all I was very disappointed Rooms are large but cold at night we had 2 rooms booked we could not sleep at night due to been very cold complained to the front desk and they couldn't do anything so waiting till the morning and had a lengthy chat with the manager( Blanka) who in the end managed to switch the heating on which helped and offered a free spa treatment which I think was good customer service The overall feel was not great alot of staff don't speak English so it is difficult to communicate, I felt most staff other then front desk need a lot of customers service training as they are very rude and abrupt and don't have any training to deal with customers Even at the desk when we checked in the lady on reception said people in this region are different and can be rude !! I will not stay in this hotel again to sum up things I moved to another hotel in town and it is fabulous

Clean hotel, rooms are cleaned every day. Many rooms have balconies. It is overlooking green hills and air around is clean and fresh. We slept with open windows. Rooms are huge, same with bathrooms. Nice furniture in the room. Free transportation to take you down to colonnades. This is a Spa town. Many people come to Karlovy Vary to enjoy hot springs and healing water. Hotel offers good quality home made food buffet style 3 times a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can get SPA procedures of your choice and see the medical specialists as part of hotel services.

Overall we had a great experience. The room had a nice view. It was spacious and clean. The wellness Center was not impressive. The sports center seemed nice as well as the tennis courts. The hotel offers free public transport pass which brings you to the city center in just 2 minutes.

Commendable staff, very proficient, friendly, making a guest feel right at home. Arriving after midnight, having the valet take care of our car, and getting a freshly prepared complimentary meal at the bar was just one of many highlights. We'll definitely be back soon! PS: Shoutout to Robert!

An excellent stay in Karlovy Vary.
Beautiful hotel that has been updated nicely. Very large corridors, but the rooms are a bit small, but comfortable. Was there for a 10 day wellness stay, and found the staff very friendly and helpful the entire time. A very serene location at the top of a hill, with spectacular views of the valley and town. Spa and wellness services very well organized and satisfactory, with extensive facilities for these services. The hotel is wonderful, but lists itself as a 5 star hotel. Realistically, I would consider it to be a solid 4 Star. Would suggest adjusting expectations accordingly prior to arrival.

Beautiful old building with terrible staff
Hotel is grand and beautiful. Room was one of the nicest we've ever stayed at with huge bathroom and beautiful view. Breakfast buffet was good, but had to wait a long time after sitting down to get coffee/tea. Great range of spa procedures but you need to book a few weeks in advance if you need a certain time slot, I couldn't get what I wanted. Also don't see why we should pay to use the gym and hotel owned funicular given the accommodation price we've paid. Pool, sauna and Jacuzzi are nice but not available all day which is a bit inconvenient. Service is their biggest let down. It would be nice if staff focused as much on their customers as they did on their mobile phones. The only person who truly deserved to work there was the gentleman at reception (Roman?) who was exceptionally polite, helpful and remembered guests details and issues. Housekeeping did a good job, turned down the beds while we were at dinner. Everyone else was extremely rude and inattentive, it was disgraceful! Please know that we have been working in hotels and hospitality for nearly 30 years and we were shocked by their behaviors towards us.

Dear guest, Thank you for choosing Hotel Imperial and thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry to hear your negative review, since we always aim for our guest’s satisfaction. Please, allow me to address your complaints. Our Sportscentrum is offering a much wider variety of sports activities and equipment, including group classes than an average fitness room in a hotel. That is why its use is paid, and we offer our hotel guests a discounted entrance fee. The funicular you mention is owned and run by the city public transport and not the hotel. We have informed the hotel’s managers about your feedback regarding the behaviour of some of our staff. It would have however been much more efficient and easier to resolve your issue if you complained to us directly while still staying at the hotel. We are sorry you decided to not communicate your dissatisfaction while still here. You mention you have been working in hospitality industry for 30 years, and you thus must know that all hotels encourage their guests to do so and that it is the only way to sort out what is bothering you and fully enjoy your holiday. We are always working to make our hotel and its services better, and we hope that you will give us a second chance to make your holiday great and visit us again.
