Located in the Bohemian village of Mcely less than an hour from Prague in the Czech Republic, the magical and infinitely romantic Chateau Mcely Spa Hotel & Forest Retreat is a world unto itself. Each of the 23 named rooms has been painstakingly designed to the tiniest detail to create a luxurious, welcoming environment, with fine linens and rich accents. Each of the two floors follows a distinct theme: the Floor of the World and the Floor of Time. Along with the 17th-century wine cellar known as The Alchemists Club, a sprawling English Park and a studio library with a tower observatory, the property’s stand-alone Bouquet Spa offers traditional herbal aromatherapy rituals with herbs collected in the nearby St. George Forest. Try the Nine Flowers, a nine-step ritual that takes place in the Honey Pavilion wood cottage by the lake; or Rose is a Rose is a Rose, with a rosehip honey body peeling and an application of soothing, moisturizing rose serum. Bring your children when you come to the Czech Republic: Enchantment is on tap from Sept. 9–11, when the chateau hosts the annual Princess Festival. Along with two nights in a room of your choice, daily breakfast buffet, Saturday buffet lunch and Sunday barbecue, events for children ages three years and older begin on Friday evening. The resident nanny will offer a bedtime reading of The Peacock Prince in the chateau’s Golden Hall. Over the weekend, activities include games in the English Park, a formal opening of the festival, a Princess Academy workshop titled “Fun with Etiquette for Princesses and Princes,” a Mermaid Cake cutting, fairytale theater in the park, Le Petite Suzette Fashion Show of fun princess costumes, a princess jewelry workshop, a pirate treasure hunt, horse and pony rides and other surprise events. Parents are covered as well, with a seminar on “How to Raise a Girl, How to Raise a Boy” presented by psychotherapist and lecturer Milan Studnička, along with a presentation by Tomáš Rychnovský, Ph.D.
