We stayed in Hotel Ribno while visiting the Bled area for a family event and stayed for three nights. The hotel is located in a lovely wooded area just out of Bled, in beautiful surroundings. Although other reviewers wrote that you can walk into Bled, I think it is a bit far to walk. I recommend to stay in this hotel if you have a car and want to find quiet sorroundings.

The hotel is nice and clean. The decor was a bit tired but everything seems to be well maintained. The service was very nice, and we were especially grateful to the amazing kitchen staff. One night we returned quite late to the hotel completely famished, but dinner service was over. We talked to a waiter who returned to our table a bit later with a wonderful plate of selection of different appetizers and "small bites", put together by the chef lady. It was super nice of them and made us very happy.

Breakfasts are also very nice, with a large selection of choices in a large breakfast/restaurant room.

We booked at the last moment to stay in the Bled area -we stayed on the Saturday before Easter, wanted to stay more but it was booked up. Ribno is a few kilometers off Bled . Hotel beautifully located at edge of spruce forest, lots of walks, next to trout fishing river. Rooms are as described (hotel is 4*, standard of room more like 3* western Europe but OK). The grounds are very well appointed with tennis courts etc. Breakfast buffet is very good. Service is pleasant. The site is super-quiet. Prices are Slovenia/Bled reasonable. A great find.

This was our 2nd stay at Hotel Ribno and our 5th visit to Slovenia. We love it, but I'll give as unbiased a view of the hotel as possible! It is set in the countryside on the edge of forestland outside of Bled - a gorgeous location! But OUTSIDE Bled - you really need a car as a taxi will cost approx 12 euros one way!
The rooms are farly basic but have most things you need except a kettle and has a minute tv! Our room was quite small, but clean and comfortable with lots of storage space. The balcony is large, but not private as it is only partially divided from your neighbours. The shower was handheld and no curtain or screen! Last time we stayed our room was better but no balcony.
We only ate from the Al la Carte menu (the buffet did not look too good) and it was excellently cooked food. There is a bar area and a large, attractive terrace to sit out at the back of the hotel.
Staff are very polite and helpful, especially Jure the barman / waiter who works very hard.
This is a unique hotel, not soulless like larger hotels - we have stayed at 3 other hotels in Bled and really prefer this one. Although I admit there is room for improvement we shall definately be going back

Aging conference hotel best known for its scenic views and proximity to Lake Bled. Rooms clean, sweet smelling, spacious. Beds comfortable. But toilet seat broken, mirror cracked, door between conference hall and dining room will not close.. Food in hotel restaurant is good with buffets at all three meals offering a wide variety of items. A la carte portions are lavish, so order only to share with others. The service is excellent. Champaign bottles are opened with a sword.
