Grand Hotel Toplice

Love the hotel

Overnight stay to visit Lake Bled. Fantastic hotel. Lots of great free extras. Used the row boat to visit the island. Swam from the private beach and used the Spa.

Loved it! Absolutely recommended!!!

Amazing view of lake bled

Perfect

We had a very pleasant stay overall, but some aspects were not what they should be for a 5-star hotel and the price. Firstly, whilst we should say that the majority of the staff were very helpful, a few fell short of the mark - in particular: one or two of the restaurant workers being slow to serve (one even forgot to place the order at breakfast), another at the boating place took 20 minutes to unlock the boat AFTER we had got in it (it was laughable after he had spent half this time trying many different keys). The food in the main restaurant was very good (although the menu for the evening meal was sometimes slow to appear). The spa was a good experience, except for the unfortunate smell coming from some of the drains. The hotel itself is fairly dated - much of which is charming, but for example, the main lounge/seating area (which has lovely views of the lake) has cold, intense lighting and just the sound of noisy heaters/air con - this could be really nice with a bit of thought to create some ambience. The outside beach area was very pleasant.

Wonderful

From the time we walked in the door, to when we said goodbye, the staff were excellent!!! Nothing was a problem at all!! Service at its absolute best!!! We only wish we could have stayed longer

When booking, we had opted for a room without a lake view. The room however overlooked the road and the balcony had no furniture (not that we would have wanted to sit looking at the road anyway). Fortunately, after one night and after paying the additional cost, there was availability to switch to a room with a lake view. The view was wonderful and we are so glad we paid the extra to move. The exclusive use of the sun beds and umbrellas right on the lakeside was lovely. We also ate in the hotel one evening and the food was delicious and good value. I would say that if you are going to stay at this hotel, then book a room with a lake view.

Wonderful!
