They say 'five star', but we reckon the Nové Lázně, one of Mariánské Lázně's best hotels, is a very good 'four star'. Either way you're guaranteed an elegant stay in this 19th-century confection that sits atop the 'new baths'. Exemplary spa services are virtually on tap as you're ushered into the gilded lobby. See the website for spa packages.
