Historic Luxury Hotel of the Year – Karlovy Vary 2025
SPA FRANCIZSKA at Grandhotel Pupp represents a harmonious blend of the historical spa heritage of Karlovy Vary and modern wellness practices. The name SPA pays tribute to Francizska Pupp, the wife of Mr. Pupp, who had a passion for herbs, self-care, and relaxation.
Legend has it that Francizska, the wife of Johann Georg Pupp, had a deep love for nature and healing herbs. In her garden, she cultivated various aromatic plants and created herbal blends designed to bring relief and rejuvenation. Her knowledge and sensitivity to natural healing methods inspired the creation of a unique spa ritual – the SPA FRANCIZSKA bath, which is now the signature treatment of this wellness center. This ritual, based on the use of herbal extracts and traditional spa techniques, embodies the connection between history, nature, and self-care.
Grandhotel Pupp, founded in the 18th century, is a symbol of tradition and elegance, with its spa heritage deeply rooted in the history of Karlovy Vary – a city renowned for its mineral springs and therapeutic treatments. SPA FRANCIZSKA continues this tradition, offering an exclusive space for the regeneration of both body and mind, where historical ambiance meets exceptional care.
The SPA FRANCIZSKA menu includes a wide range of massages, body treatments, and facial rituals inspired by the spa heritage of Karlovy Vary. Each treatment is carefully tailored to the individual needs of guests, focusing on deep body and mind rejuvenation.
The philosophy of SPA FRANCIZSKA is to create a unique space where guests can disconnect from daily stress and replenish their energy. It combines historical spa traditions, modern relaxation techniques, and an environment that honors heritage.
At the heart of the legendary Grandhotel Pupp, SPA FRANCIZSKA offers guests more than just relaxation – it provides a unique experience where history and the present merge in perfect harmony of care and tradition.
