  Stunning location

  02 Jun 2026

  This hotel is situated overlooking the beautiful lake Bled, stunning location and a really beautiful hotel. Yes the rooms do need a renovation but they will be doing this at the end of the season . The rooms are small but clean, bed not that comfortable and the storage is poor , wardrobe doors don’t close and the dressing table drawers keep opening on their own!Staff are all lovely & friendly. The food is different, strange mixture of things but all served well presented. I’m vegetarian and there was little choice .

  A 5-star view (if room is on lake side)

  26 May 2026

  The only thing 5-star about this hotel is the 5-star lakeside view. The rest is mediocre, except for the outrageous prices. Example: $30 for a simple gin and tonic served by a grumpy bar tender doubling as a room-service carrier pigeon. And while waiting for the bartender to appear, a trip to the reception desk to inquire of his whereabouts ended with no attendant at the reception desk (at 5:00 in the afternoon). If you are into early 20th century decor and furnishings with a convention-center ambience, this is your place. The room we had was comfortable with a beautiful view and balcony. But everything else was dated, including the thermostat that was stuck at a meat locker 18. 5 degrees C. And then there are the bathroom appointments. If you want a shower, prepare for a most quaint experience: a half-complete glass enclosure that doesn’t adequately contain the water from a shower head that has to be rigged by the user to sit on a pole-mounted bracket. And that can only be accomplished once one has vaulted over a bathtub skirt wedged in behind the bathroom door (if open) that measures at least 2” above my knees (I’m 5’9” tall). I guarantee it’s not an easy maneuver for someone who’s reasonably athletic, damn near dangerous for my wife (coming in at 5’4”). Finally,there’s the resident restaurant. After my experience with the bar, I knew I was in for sticker shock, and, based on breakfast offering, I expected long on price and short on delivery. The dinner menu didn’t disappoint on either score, though,admittedly, i didn’t venture a tasting (given the expected value shortfall). Look for an alternative, if you are expecting luxury value for luxury prices. Tomaz Jastrobnik, Guest Services / Front Office at Grand Hotel Toplice, responded to this review Dear Mr. Berlet,Thank you for sharing your characteristically vivid account of your stay at Grand Hotel Toplice.We are pleased that, despite your reservations, you found the lakeside balcony, room comfort and what you describe as the hotel's "5-star view" worthy of recognition. On that particular point, we are in complete agreement.Grand Hotel Toplice is a historic lakeside hotel whose identity has been shaped over nearly a century of hosting travellers, artists, statesmen and guests seeking a sense of place rather than a contemporary luxury formula. Its architecture, room layouts and many design elements reflect that heritage and are often appreciated precisely because they differ from modern hotel standards.As for value, atmosphere and style, these remain among the most subjective aspects of hospitality. Some guests are drawn to contemporary luxury, while others choose Grand Hotel Toplice for its history, character, private lake frontage and one of the most iconic views in Europe. Neither preference is wrong; they are simply different ways of experiencing travel.We appreciate your observations and trust that future readers will find them useful alongside the many differing perspectives shared by our guests each year.Best regards,Tomaž JastrobnikHead of Guest ExperienceSava Hotels Bled

  Happy Stay in Style

  30 Apr 2026

  Excellent stay, with a great location. The front desk were great the only issue was the unfortunate construction going on at the front of the location. The dust and gravel made a mess so I usually went in and out on the ground floor near the spa and then up a floor to access the checkin lobby. The room was nice and the patio with views were wonderful. The wifi was fast and easy to connect. Very clean and classy. Tomaz Jastrobnik, Guest Services / Front Office at Grand Hotel Toplice, responded to this review Dear Matt M,Thank you for sharing your experience at Grand Hotel Toplice. We are delighted to learn that you enjoyed the excellent location, the cleanliness of your room, and the beautiful views from your patio.

We hope to welcome you back soon for another enjoyable stay.Tomaž Jastrobnik Head Of Guest Experience, Sava Hoteli Bled

  Exceptional Service with dramatic views

  02 Nov 2025

  Our recent stay was our fifth stay at the GH Toplice. It's a step back in time for us and we love it. We always get a balcony room with Lake views that is exceptional. They are updating rooms annually and have been very meticulous with using different updated rooms as models for feedback to make sure they get the best results. We have stayed in one of the test rooms and it's very nice! I have always had the best service at the hotel. The front desk is always helpful and friendly. Breakfast is fantastic with a great setting and service. Housekeeping always keeps our room refreshed and the Spa staff always takes good care of us during our stay. Thank you so much! We will be back.
