Grand Hotel Toplice - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

Absolutely stunning! Our stay at The Grand Hotel Toplice at Lake Bled was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the breathtaking view of the lake, which set the tone for an unforgettable experience. The rooms were well-appointed, offering a perfect blend of spaciousness and comfort that made us feel right at home. The atmosphere throughout the hotel was warm and welcoming, creating a relaxing haven where we felt truly pampered. The staff were exceptional—friendly, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure our stay was perfect. Reception helped us with trips to Vintgar Gorge and even gave us a timetable for buses to/from Ljubljana as well as sorting out a minor problem with our airport taxi (a personal thank you to Thomaž, you were so helpful!). The restaurant staff were very attentive, we even had warm greetings from the housekeeping staff, every interaction was marked by genuine hospitality. Dining at the hotel was a delight. The buffet breakfast was fresh, tasty, and wholesome, with a wonderful variety. The four course evening meals were exquisite, reflecting the high standards that permeate every aspect of the hotel. Each meal was a culinary treat that added to our overall enjoyment. The hotel's location on the lake shore is simply ideal. We loved waking up to the serene views and taking leisurely strolls along the water. The facilities were outstanding, with a luxurious spa, an inviting swimming pool, as well as having its own boat house, among other amenities. Each space was designed with elegance and comfort in mind, enhancing our stay at every turn.The decor and surroundings exuded luxury, creating an ambiance of sophisticated charm. In summary, The Grand Hotel Toplice is an absolute gem on Lake Bled, offering unparalleled views, exceptional service, and luxurious comfort. We were very well looked after and can't wait to return to this perfect lakeside retreat!

The view from our lake view room was incredible and really made the stay so special. Breakfast was also incredible. Everything you could ever want. The staff were attentive and super helpful. You get a lovely welcome drink. The restaurant Juliana is amazing so make sure you book ahead to secure a table. The sun loungers and being able to swim in the lake were absolute highlights. We loved it all.

Staff were super friendly, and a perfect location, especially if you pay for a lakeside view - but that comes at a hefty price, as do all the rooms. Good breakfast and free hire of a rowing boat to get you over to the lake island (if you work at it !). Paddleboards also available- also free if you ask nicely. And within easy reach of all the town's bars and restaurants- and bus station for trips.

The location of the hotel was fantastic with stunning views. The staff we very friendly and helpful . The breakfast menu had a good selection of hot and cold options and they catered for my husbands gluten Intolerence , unfortunately this didn’t appear to transfer to the evening menu so we didn’t eat in either of the restaurants . However a member of staff really went out of his way to make a gf open sandwich to eat at the lido which was very appreciated. The choice of food at the lido was limited in general . Having use of the rowing boats for an hour for free was lovely and the lido area was well managed. I also noticed the water was quality checked early in the morning in the sectioned off lido for hotel guests which was reassuring.

The staff were absolutely amazing from point of arrival through to point of departure. Special mention should go to the manager Dejan, the two other Dejans, Dimitar and Marion in front of house, who particularly provided us with such friendly and informative service - because of them we were able to see a lot more places of interest and beauty,. Also, not forgetting Nejice . They really all could not have done any more for us. We have the benefit of having stayed at many hotels around the world and this team are up there amongst the best for their service.
