Vila Bled is a beautiful vintage hotel where you can definitely feel the historical vibe on every corner. It is pleasently and decently furnished, everything is clean and neat, the rooms are spacious. All of the staff was polite and always available and the waiter at the hotel restaurant was admirably professional and elegant. The dinner at the hotel restaraunt was delicious, as was the breakfast each morning of our stay. Also the spa is a must go. All in all, a beautiful experience in a hotel were you feel like you are a part of a diplomatic visit. Our visit was in early January 2025 and we will definitely return to experience both the hotel and Bled in other seasons.

There is some wear and tear on the room furniture, especially on the nightstand surfaces which I hope will be addressed. The other thing to be addressed are the leaky shower screens.

This hotel is amazing!!! The location is fantastic, the building has an amazing history, and the staff were incredible. It was somehow grand but unpretentious, not at all stuffy. Also, this seems like a minor thing, but I am a decently-proficient-but-not-totally-fluent speaker of Slovene, and it really meant a lot to me that the staff were patient and kind and spoke to me in Slovene. (At other places, I've found out that once people figure out you're not a native speaker they switch immediately to English.) It really meant a lot to me that I had multiple, lengthy conversations with members of staff in Slovene, and I'm grateful for their patience and generosity of spirit! Anyway, we just loved everything about our stay and are already planning a return trip.

The location and views from the balcony are amazing. Knowing the historical aspects of the hotel were also a major reason we wanted to stay in Villa Bled. The staff is very friendly and professional, and trying to help with all issues or requests.

The main issue with this hotel is the lack of air conditioning. As you open the windows and balcony doors, you get all the cigarette smoke in your room, since smoking is permitted on balconies. There are also little things such as no paper tissues, no hand soap (empty bottle for two days of stay), dusty towel radiators - these things should not be happening for the price we paid.

Wow - this hotel seems like somehting out of a film. Having explored a bit of bled, it is without a doubt the best location with access to the island and quietness from the hustle and bustle. The staff were lovely and so low key with nothing a problem. The lady during dinner service was adorable and my only regret is not having cash to tip her a huge and deserved thank you!

It is incredible dated. If you expect comfort (ie aircon and good interiors - this isn't for you) but if you want a refreshingly innocent and old school hotel with the most incredible views in the world and a real sense of peace - book now! We will be coming back for sure :)

The hotel, which carries the spirit of old times, is in an extraordinary location. The large park on the hillside, on the shore of the lake, awaits guests with beautiful flowers, bushes, and trees in perfect harmony. Although the hotel was not born in the 21st century, the room with its balcony opening onto the lake takes you off your feet. We didn't use the dinner option, but the breakfast was just great, we didn't miss anything. The fact that you can park in the hotel area is a huge plus in Bled.

Regarding the return, we await the completion of the renovation.

Architecturally special location, apparently in the Neo-Renaissance style, built between 1934-1947, located in a quiet area, close to the lake, with a jetty and its own beach area that partially preserves the interior design of the 60s-70s. I recommend it to those who appreciate historical and quiet locations. The hotel staff is kind and responsive so that none of your wishes will remain unsolved.

If the included breakfast, otherwise varied, would benefit from a few ideas of variation, it would definitely be less monotonous.

Vila Bled has the best view in the area! We enjoyed our stay over there. It’s an old building that comes with its elegance. Breakfast served in the room (what a good idea and service they had), having a toddler with us it was easier to eat in the room. There was also free charging for electric cars. It was really helpful.

The furniture, carpets and bed were old. At the end of the bed, the upholstery was so worn out that it was white, a different colour than the bed. The fact that all those mention above were worn out, it doesn’t mean it wasn’t clean! Maybe in the near future they will renovate and renew some things. Regarding the housekeeping service, they only made the bed, they didn’t empty the trash cans. Our toddler had diapers, we expected after the 1st night to have the cans empty.

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation for the outstanding service I received during my stay at your wonderful hotel. My experience was truly exceptional, largely due to the professionalism and friendliness of your staff. I would like to highlight the exemplary service provided by your front desk employee, Jana. She was incredibly helpful, attentive to all my needs, and displayed remarkable courtesy and efficiency. Her warm welcome and attention to detail made my stay much more comfortable and enjoyable. Please extend my heartfelt thanks and appreciation to Jana for her outstanding efforts. I believe she is a true asset to your team, and her hard work should be recognized and valued. I look forward to staying at your hotel again and will highly recommend it to anyone seeking a comfortable and high-quality experience. Thank you once again for the exceptional service.

Everything was perfect

Everything! Our stay was perfect. This historic hotel (a former summer residence of Marshal Josip Broz Tito) has awe inspiring views of Lake Bled. Our rooms had balconies which added to the experience. The hotel itself is beautifully decorated and has a special feeling of charm and class. The private beach is fantastic (with boats available to hire for a row on the lake). All of the staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. Vila Bled is highly recommended. It was a very special visit. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!

The location is extraordinary: right on the lake front with a view of the island (we even had a view of it from our room) and rowing boats so we couod explore. The decor is beautiful in a sort of lovingly upkept old world glamour way. And the food - both dinner and breakfast - was delicious. Being able to eat on the terrace and look out over the lake was very special. All in all, extremely good value for money.

We would have loved it if the private beach was open (only from June apparently), but do appreciate that we probably have an unusually high tolerance for swimming in cold water. And if I could improve one thing it would be the ambience in the dining room at night: if they dimmed the lights, put out some candles and chose a less 90s classics playlist it would be perfect. But these are very much small things and overall this was one of my favourite hotel stays ever.
