Overview
Named after Bled’s famed healer Arnold Rikli, the Rikli Balance Hotel is all about sustainability and wellbeing. Its modern design is closely inspired by the surrounding landscape, with natural materials woven throughout. In your room, thoughtful touches like locally sourced spruce wood add both character and a sleek, contemporary feel.
The focus on relaxation extends well beyond your room. For an extra treat, you can unwind after a day on the slopes with a mountain herb massage or a soothing spruce tip bath in the spa. You’ll also have access to Živa Wellness Centre, where six heated pools, a waterslide and more are all included in your stay which is perfect for a post-piste dip or a leisurely après-ski swim.
Mornings begin with a generous hot and cold buffet breakfast, whether you’re in the mood for fresh pastries or something lighter. You might want to save some space, though, for a slice of local favourite Bled cream cake. In the evenings, the focus shifts to fresh, seasonal ingredients, with three-course buffet dinners that showcase traditional regional dishes.

About Bled
Lake Bled is easily Slovenia’s most photographed spot and it doesn’t take long to see why. Framed by snow-dusted forests and Alpine peaks, the lake’s tiny island and the dramatic Bled Castle perched above it create a scene that feels almost unreal.
While Bled itself isn’t a ski resort, it’s perfectly placed for easy access to two nearby ski areas. Within around 30 minutes, you can reach Vogel Ski Resort, known for its panoramic mountain views and varied terrain. Alternatively, Kranjska Gora is about 45 minutes away, offering a mix of gentle beginner slopes, longer cruising runs, and challenging World Cup pistes. Both resorts may be smaller in scale, but they deliver plenty of variety.
Back in Bled, the atmosphere is just as much a draw as the skiing. The town combines high-quality hotels with welcoming, family-run restaurants serving hearty Slovenian dishes. And if you’re in the mood for a change of pace, the capital, Ljubljana, is only about an hour away—ideal for a cultural day trip.
Away from the slopes, Bled’s natural setting takes centre stage. A lakeside path circles the water in roughly two hours, offering constantly changing views and plenty of scenic stopping points. For something more leisurely, a traditional horse-drawn carriage ride around the lake adds a fairytale touch especially when the landscape is blanketed in snow.
