Stone Spa House (Kamenne lazne), Czechia is a Neo-Baroque spa building from 1911 at U Hadich lazni 1470 in Teplice, North Bohemia, situated in the Sanovský Park spa district. The building was originally constructed as the Empress Elizabeth Spa (Lázne císarovny Alžbety) to commemorate the visit of Empress Sisi, and is a state-protected cultural monument of the Czech Republic. It forms part of the Lázne Teplice v Cechách a.s. spa complex, which is the oldest spa in Central Europe with over 2,000 years of documented balneological history. The Pravridlo spring, the source for all Teplice thermal water, has been in continuous use since Roman times.
The building treats both adults and children aged 18 months to 18 years with musculoskeletal and neurological diseases, as part of the full treatment programme of the Teplice Spa Centre. Facilities on-site include a thermal swimming pool fed with Teplice bicarbonate-sulphate-sodium mineral water, a salt cave open daily 09:00 to 18:00 (45-minute sessions), hydrotherapy procedures, and the Café Restaurant Sissi. The building has 78 beds across single and double rooms and the Jirásek sanatorium, an administrative dependency of Stone Spa House, is approximately 100 metres away and offers additional accommodation. All accommodation, meals, and treatment take place within the building.

Safety & Etiquette
Stone Spa House (Kamenne lazne) Safety Tips
Stone Spa House (Kamenne lazne) is generally safe as a medically supervised spa building with 24-hour nursing cover. The main safety considerations are the thermal mineral water and its contraindications, the salt cave session protocol, and the requirement for a medical report before any treatment stay.
The Teplice thermal mineral water is a bicarbonate-sulphate-sodium water at approximately 41 degrees Celsius at source, used in baths and hydrotherapy at temperatures and durations prescribed by the on-site physician. It contains radon and has specific contraindications including acute infections, fever, active inflammation, certain cardiovascular conditions, and pregnancy. Bring a current medical report not more than 3 months old in English before booking; the physician will review it and prescribe an individual treatment plan. Do not enter the thermal pool without medical clearance if you have a cardiac or neurological condition. The pool is described as small and access is time-limited for paying residents; confirm your session time with reception on arrival.
In the salt cave, 45-minute sessions use a microclimate saturated with iodine, potassium, and selenium. People with iodine sensitivity or hyperthyroidism should check with a doctor before booking a salt cave session. Children under 18 months should not use the salt cave. The spa building is a protected historic structure from 1911 with stairs noted in reviews; confirm mobility needs and accessibility arrangements directly with the spa before booking if you have limited mobility. Parents accompanying children for treatment should remain with their child during all procedures as directed by the medical team.
