Set in an elevated position above the lake, the hotel enjoys wonderful views towards Lake Bled, Bled Castle and the surrounding Julian Alps. The location works especially well for a short break, with the lakefront, restaurants, walking routes and local attractions all within easy reach.

The hotel has a fresh Alpine feel, with a strong focus on wellbeing, nature and local character. Rooms are comfortable and many have balconies, making the most of the beautiful setting. After a busy day exploring, the wellness facilities and pool complex are a real bonus, offering a lovely place to relax and unwind.

For families, Rikli Balance works very well. It has enough facilities to feel like a proper holiday hotel, while still giving easy access to Lake Bled’s outdoor adventures.

It is also a good choice for active guests.

Lake Bled and the surrounding countryside are ideal for gentle rides, scenic routes and more adventurous cycling days.

Comfortable, scenic, practical and relaxed, with just the right mix of adventure and downtime.

It is definitely worth paying the extra for a lakeside view room.
