PUPP & FILM

The unique atmosphere attracts filmmakers.

Home of stars

The Grandhotel Pupp is inextricably linked with Czech and international film. For more than 50 years, during the Karlovy Vary Film Festival, it has been part of the program, hosted legendary parties and has been home to the greatest stars.

Grandhotel Pupp as a film location

Filmmakers like to live in Pupp, but they also shoot here. Interiors and exteriors have been featured in countless Czech and foreign films, the most famous of which are undoubtedly the Casino Royale, a Bond movie with Daniel Craig and Eva Green, and the Last Holiday, a remake of an American film classic starring Queen Latifah and Gérard Dépardieu.
