The service in the restaurant was excellent and was the only thing that redeemed our experience with service. Unfortunately, my experience at the central lobby bar was the complete opposite and extremely disappointing. Asking for a welcome drink from the bartender was an unpleasant experience from the very beginning. Without asking any questions or trying to understand the situation, the staff member immediately responded with a rude and dismissive attitude, lecturing me about the rules for welcome drinks simply because I was collecting one for my parents. There was no professionalism, courtesy, or willingness to help—only arrogance and unnecessary hostility. I would not recommend ordering anything at this bar if this is the level of customer service guests can expect. I am genuinely surprised that a hotel of this standard employs staff who treat guests in such an unprofessional and disrespectful manner..

We were quite disappointed by our stay at Ensana Centrální Lázně. The staff at the reception was not very friendly and the check-in process was very slow and lengthy. The room was large, but some parts were in a bad repair and falling apart (should be checked technically). There was a thick layer of dust on the window curtains. First days of our stay the swimming pool at Hvězda was not open for public. This was not announced before our stay. The food was ok, but I expected more for 4star hotel. Often some main courses were running low or out and the replacement was very poor. Some meals were not cooked properly, soups were semi-cold. Deserts quite poor. The state of Nove lazne SPA is very poor - the steam room is smelling mould, not nice. It does not look so luxurious as it does at the pictures. I can only highlight the staff at Hvězda SPA and the Maria SPA - very friendly and nice. The overall value for money was quite poor. We stayed before Christmas 2025 for 3 nights.
I am extremely disappointed with my stay at Ensana Centrální Lázně. For a hotel that advertises itself as a 4-star property, the level of service is far below international standards. At this category, guests should reasonably expect staff to communicate at least basic English. Unfortunately, the majority of the staff made no effort to speak English at all. Instead of attempting simple communication, they refused to engage, which made even basic requests unnecessarily stressful. The attitude of several employees was unprofessional and unwelcoming. Rather than trying to assist, they appeared dismissive and indifferent. On multiple occasions, I felt treated differently as a foreign guest, which was deeply uncomfortable and disappointing. Room service was also unacceptable. Asking for something as simple as a cup of coffee was refused without explanation or any attempt to accommodate the request. In a 4-star hotel, this is the absolute minimum level of service one would expect. Considering the high price charged, the overall experience was not worth the money. The service quality does not match the hotel’s star rating, and the lack of international communication standards makes it unsuitable for foreign travelers. I cannot recommend this hotel. For the price you pay, there are far better options that offer professionalism, respect, and basic hospitality standards.
We have visited this hotel for the 5th time for the purpose of a health spa break. The rooms we had were always very good, spacious and well maintained. The treatments are done very professionally. We enjoyed the buffet food and found there was plenty of choice and the cooked food was tasty. We very much enjoyed the salad buffet among other things. The facilities are very good, especially the swimming pool.
Very bad service, very rude, inflexible personal. + comfortable big warm rooms, high ceilings, terrace, cosmetics, tea, and robes+slippers. All that is expected from 4*hotel. + Roman bath was really pleasant, not crowded, clean, warm pool water, about 29°C. + Must add that ukrainian stuff in the hotel was very helpful and kind. - Very rude breakfast stuff, inclusive the manager. We were there with a baby, finishing our breakfast at the time 10:15, so instead of asking us politely to leave, they just switched off the light and started to do vacuum cleaning. When I asked why they that, one waiter&cleaner started even to shout on us in front of the restaurant manager. Scandalous! BTW, the next day at the breakfast were many other people being there after 10 am, and nobody was rushing them to leave! Terrible! - Minibar is empty, with the note inside, call the number, and order drinks there. I called ordering a wine. So the male receptionist rudely told me that there is no wine, and if we order other drinks, then nobody is going to bring it to the room because he is alone in the reception. That's bad. That is absolutely not 4* hotel service. Then we went to get a beer which was warm!😳 The next day, I went to the reception, and I saw their minibar selection in the vitrine, guess what, the wine was there!🤦♀️ I was Speeless! - Parking is possible close to the hotel, just a few spots for 320 czk or 13 €/day, but with a big sign that they are not responsible for your car or your stuff inside. - No termal water in the roman baths, and I find it a bit overpriced, 800czk or 36€ for 3 hours for non-hotel guests. - No tolerance on the closing hours everywhere: restaurant, bar, check out of the hotel, etc. - Another bad thing, that if you not checked out exactly before 10:55, and not took your luggage from the room before that time, you will be not able to enter to the room again. Unless you walk back to the reception and activate the card again. I find this very inflexible, very strict, considering that is complex of 5 hotels connected by the corridors, where you sleep in one hotel, eat in the second, and do spa and bath in the third one. Long walks everywhere, especially with a stroller. - Stuff doesn't speak English, only German and Russian. - Too expensive for this level of service. 200€ /per night, with only breakfast. - Food is average. Definitely avoid this hotel if you want you to have a comfortable and pleasant stay.
