to experience peaceful moments in the unique atmosphere of the world-famous
spa town. The Carlsbad`s altitude is 370 m, but the nearby hills are over
640 m. The Carlsbad balneology, over 600 years old, is built upon its curative
effects, which attracted many famous visitors. From approximately 100 springs
of various yields, 12 of them are captured; their temperature varies from
42°C to 72°C.
History:
In 1907, the collection of individual buildings of the hotel was eventually
incorporated in the neo-baroque “Gandhotel Pupp”. Years 1922-23 were the
climax of construction and modernization of the entire hotel. Every room
received its own bathroom with warm and cold water. The ballroom is a grand
venue for balls and similar parties. In the last 200 years there was hardly
a famous visitor to the city, who wouldn’t come to the world famous hotel.
Some of the honoured guests of the 18th century were, for example:
musical composer Johann Sebastian Bach; Russian Tsar Peter the Great; founder
of the modern balneology Dr. David Becher; Prussian King Friedrich I.,
Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz or Austrian Empress Marie Teresie of Habsburg
and the famous German chancellor Otto von Bismark.
