Prague is just the beginning. A new campaign by CzechTourism is encouraging Americans to stay longer in Czechia

Czech spas have been a hit with Poles. The OPEN POLSKA pilot project paves the way for longer stays

Poles are interested in Czech spas not only for short stays, but they also want to stay for a whole week. This was demonstrated by the OPEN POLSKA pilot project, which was organized by the Czech Tourism Authority—CzechTourism and the Živý kraj Destination Agency in collaboration with seven hotels in West Bohemia. The goal was to determine how attractive a longer spa stay in Czechia is to Polish guests and to increase interest in Czech medical wellness. A total of 89 Poles took advantage of the opportunity to participate in the project, and 100% of respondents expressed satisfaction with their stay at Czech spas in a follow-up questionnaire survey. More than half of them reported, based on their own assessment, that they felt an improvement in their health. The results will now serve as the basis for creating packages for week-long stays through Polish travel agencies, as well as for further promotion. Read more…
