Reviews for Hotel Jelovica
Review 1:The hotel could use a little more creative decoration - it feels a little austere.
Review 2:Great location right at the lake. Views from the lake facing rooms are fantastic (unfortunately we didn't have one). A short walk to many restaurants and bars.. Free on site parking.Very clean and comfortable. Good selection for breakfast.
Review 3:A minor thing that will not change my good experience: Poor sink operation in last two days of my stay....should be fixed better.
Review 4:Location, staff, restaurant, good heating, cleanliness, parking, ....., Excellent , as usual.
Review 5:Bedding seemed to have marks on it, would have liked tea/coffee facility in room. But the goods outweigh this.
Review 6:Great location, amazing view of the lake
Review 7:Dinner is very cheap, but it is a buffet and the taste of food is quite similar to that of an office canteen; however there is a wide chioce.
Review 8:Very nice position, just in front of the lake and very close to the town centre and the trail to the castle. Rooms are clean and tidy.
Review 9:The dinner was bad. It is 13 euros but they are better spent on the street food on the lake The building is quite old but rooms and hall are recently renewed
Review 10:The rooms are really nice and clean, recently renewed The location just over the lake
Review 11:no tea making facility however i was told it is a government ruling re ban due fire risk
Review 12:great view by the lake and it was snowing so was a fairy tale xmas setting
Review 13:When we booked through Booking.com, we selected to pay cash on arrival. However, since Booking.com had our credit card details and so does the hotel. On the day we arrived, the hotel told us they have already charged to our credit card without even consulting us if we wanted to go ahead with that payment option. We ended up paying 10% extra due to exchange rate charged by Visa and the bank. The hotel is really unscrupulous!
Review 14:Took a room with balcony on the 3rd floor. Spacious room with huge balcony facing Lake Bled. However, lake is 90% blocked by the trees. Free parking for guest.
Review 15:This hotel is a little tired, but overlooked by us.
Review 16:The staff on the front desk and catering are superb. Many facilities on offer and extensive food options.
Review 17:You need to pay extra if you want to go to sauna, it is not free of charge for hotel guests.
Review 18:Bus station is in front of the hotel which is great if you have a lot of luggage or you are traveling across Slovenia. Various food for breakfast and kind staff. Super big tv in room. :)
Review 19:There seemed to be a party going on the floor above us but the staff of the hotel responded quickly to quiet them down.
Review 20:The town is gorgeous and the hotel is nicely located close to the lake. We were able to rent bikes at the hotel and went for a really nice ride. Had a good breakfast in the morning.
Review 21:We couldn't enjoy the lake view from our room because of the high trees in front of the hotel. :(
Review 22:Perfect location, nice staff, the best value for money choice.
Review 23:I loved everything about it. The location, the feel of the lobby, the atmosphere and the views from the windows. My balcony and window faced away from the lake but was still lovely and quiet. Food was great, there was parking, the front office staff was friendly and cheerful.
Review 24:Great location next to the lake. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The pool was a warm 30deg. The room was a bit dated but the bathroom has beenrenovated. Enjoyed our brief stay.
Review 25:Bathroom was tiny with inconveniently placed shelf by the toilet. Probably 24 inch wide area - recessed for the toilet.
Review 26:Family room was relatively spacious. Beds separated with sufficient space that we weren't on top of each other. Great location a few minutes walk from Lake Bled. Hearty breakfast.
Review 27:We particularly enjoyed the great location close to the lake and the sumptuous breakfast, and also appreciated the free parking next to the hotel, the friendly helpful staff and the free WiFi. Excellent value! (Unfortunately we didn't have time to make use of the pool and the gym.)
Review 28:Noise from the corridor came into the room very easily but not from other rooms.
Review 29:The shower in the room had really good pressure. The bacon at breakfast was great as were the eggs. Location was great as it was very close to the lake and not far from the central part of Bled. Don't get put off by what it looks like from the outside.
Review 30:No air conditioning in room so we had to ask for a fan. A little noisy as it is located in main square.
Review 31:Very friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful views and easy access to lake and bus stop. Very spacious room and great cocktails!
Review 32:the bell of a near by church was annoying, it ring every 15 min, and @ 7am and pm it rings for 10 min, really you cant sleep
Review 33:cheap and aaround the lake
Review 34:Hotel from 80s but they are improving :-). Good location, breakfast, parking. Free WiFi. We booked room with lake view on second floor but be aware. ...you can not see lake during spring and summer bcs of trees and leaves. During winter I'm sure it's amazing view.
Review 35:The breakfast was very poor and there was no airconditioning in the room, only a movile fan.
Review 36:The view from the balcony. The situation is very nice, you can walk from the hotel around The Lake Bled.
Review 37:The room was supposed to have air conditioning. But the ac was as a fan. Just a fan that stood on the floor, could be moved around the room and was plugged into the wall. It did not keep the room cool as expected and we were just dying of heat whenever we were in the room. It was really hard to sleep in the heat so we had to open the door and window to try to cool the room down a bit. Which again resulted in flies to come in and us waking up to the really old church bells that kept on ringing all through the night and Day.
Review 38:Hotel Jelovica is nicely located near Bleds downtown. The staff were friendly and everything was very clean.
Review 39:There was a disgusting musty smell from the carpets in the hotel and in the rooms, the breakfast was of an unacceptable standard. This hotel needs to be revamped or the prices need to be dropped, I would not recommend anyone to stay here based on my experience unless you are paying very low rates
Review 40:The staff in this hotel were very helpful and friendly.
Review 41:Charging €5 for a towel in the gym. No air con. Breakfast unnecessarily average to poor
Review 42:Nice staff who try hard. Hotel needs a makeover. Rooms DONT have aircon. Gym a joke. Breakfast ordinary. Bed comfortable. Drinks prices good. Great position.
Review 43:The furnitures are from the late 70's especially the bed with a huge hole in the middle. Inpossible to sleep! I would not reccomend w/o air condition- impossible to sleep!
Review 44:Location, (lake) staff and breakfast was very good
Review 45:Pretty much everything,the staff were very friendly and helpful and the location ideal,we have stayed tere before and would not hesitate to do so again
Review 46:No air conditioning in the rooms Staff was only somewhat helpful No wash cloths, only towels Dinner was very institutional The hotel needs upgrading
Review 47:The location The breakfast was hearty, but rather institutional Wine and beer came with dinner, but only one of us drinks, so it was not a good value for us
Review 48:Havuz olarak gösterilen 4 küvet büyüklüğünde bir kap. Oda kapıları hala kartlı sisteme geçilmemiş, anahtarlıklar ile adam yaralayabilirsiniz.
Review 49:Yemekler Türk mutfağına oldukça yakın, ama et yemeklerinde ne eti olduğunu mutlaka sormalısınız. Genellikle domuz kullanılıyor. Çorbada bile...
Review 50:No air-conditioning - quite unbearable during the summer heat. One fan per room is insufficient. Had to open all windows so that the cooler air after 11 pm can come through. Will avoid this hotel during summer stay.
Review 51:Very close to Lake Bled but our rooms have no view due to the low floor. Staff are quite patient and courteous. Good assortment of breakfast. The best thing about this hotel is that the bus terminal is just two minutes walk away from the main entrance. Cheap transfers by private vans are offered at the bus terminal by enterprising 'taxi driver' for trips to Vintgar Gorge and to railway stations - this is useful information not offered by the hotel staff.
Review 52:we didn't liked the reserved room, (strong smell) but it was changed in 15 minutes.
Review 53:Besides b&b.. we rented bicycle, ate cakes, ate dinner - every thing good, and low prices. thank you.
Review 54:The bathroom wasn't cleaned daily eventhough the towels were changed daily.
Review 55:Excellent location. Situated just round the corner from the bus stop. The back door of hotel leads to a wonderful garden and to the beautiful Lake Bled. The food is great and good value for money (both breakfast and dinner).the rooms are very bright with large windows and spacious. I Highly recommend this Hotel.
Review 56:The nearby church will wake you up at 6 am if you choose to live in lake view room
Review 57:The breakfasts were good and the location is great. 10 minute walk to the castle.
Review 58:Please note that most rooms on Lake side doesn't have any Lake view - just tree view. Furthermore, and most upsetting, there was no air conditioning! We were on a hot June day and it was really unbearable to stay inside the room. So we opened the windows but then a large amount of mosquitoes decided to visit our room so we had to close it. Consequently, we didn't had much sleep and pretty suffered between the heat and the mosquitoes biting. Please put net on the windows! e
Review 59:The breakfast was great and also the dinner had great value. The location was very good - 2 minutes and you reach the lake
Review 60:The breakfast was poor the staff tried hard to accommodate most things but sadly could not over come the poor food.
Review 61:Location and bar's around the lake
Review 62:Staff at front desk (except one lady) were very unfriendly and ignorant. Apparently they miscalculated that they are over there for guests, while guests are not over there for them. Told about this to their manager but he was impassive.
Review 63:There was no electric kettle for boiled water to make some tea. Breakfast could be better, not enough vareties of food. Also no fruit for breakfast. Dissapointing.
Review 64:Very close to the lake. I was in room in 4th floor with a beautiful view on the lake and Bled Castle. Very quiet hotel. Nice staff.
Review 65:This hotel was in a great location, walking distance to the Lake Bled, restaurants were conveniently located near by. The staff was exceptional and I would highly recommended this hotel.
Review 66:Hotel in need of modernisation. Could have done with some tea and coffee facilities in the bedroom (or the ability to order room service).
Review 67:Good family room - separate kids bedroom within the overall room s bonus. Greet view of the lake.
Review 68:We received a room which was not facing the lake, which is a pity, but this is bad luck. Remote controller did not work as battery was drained. The receptionist did not offer to bring one, but asked us to bring the remote controller downstairs..
Review 69:Great location, super clean, nice room size, breakfast and dinner is adequate for a 3 star hotel, inside the hotel is refurbished despite the outside outdated appearance.
Review 70:Maybe buy some new carpets in some of the rooms. I think that the blue colour is too boring and remembers an old yugoslavia. But the rooms are 10/10
Review 71:Carpets
Review 72:Breakfast is boring and cheap, not really tasty. No smiles on staff faces. They can not give us a kettle and the minibar was missing from the room.
Review 73:Proximity to the lake. View to the mountains. Family room is large, but its bath is very small.
Review 74:The smallest bathroom I have ever seen but functional. The whole hotel is past its prime and would have been top class in the 70s and 80s. But it is kept neat and tidy and why not enjoy the look and feel of those years?
Review 75:Great location near the castle and directly at the lake promenade. A good breakfast large choice of hot and cold foods, coffee was however instant (vending automate) or perculated which is a let down if you are a coffee-snob like us. Good size room for the family and good price (end of winter season).
Review 76:Place was a little run down but clean and the breakfast while plentiful was not well cooked.
Review 77:They are well located to lake, attractions, and entertainment. Staff were helpful and friendly.
Review 78:Hotel's exterior is a bit shabby. The pool is very small. In fact, the entire spa area looks sterile, like hospital for patiences with motion problems.
Review 79:The hotel is very close to the lake and castle. The rooms are very nice with balcony, which is a great benefit for smokers. Free parking and free wifi is available.
Review 80:The hotel located near church and the bell ringing woke me up several times during the night.
Review 81:The hotel is located 5 mins by foot from City center. Staff was helpful, friendly price. The hotel have spa facilities.
Review 82:The heating was too high, almost unbearable, making it uncomfortable to stay in the room
Review 83:The hotel was nice, well located and good value for money. We should have packed swimming trunks to take advantage of the free indoor pool.
Review 84:Wifi did not work all the time. Could do with some renovation.
Review 85:Location very near to lake and restaurants. Good sized family room. Reasonable breakfast. Free parking in a safe location. Decent fitness room and small pool free for guests.
Review 86:Not a critic, just a tip that hotel restaurant close early. But aacross the road there is an excellent pizzeria that works until 11 pm
Review 87:Everything very fine. Room with balcony wih the view of the lake, spacious and clean. Good breakfast, fast and reliable wifi. Free parking. And all this on reasonable price.
Review 88:I didn't like a carpet of the floor.Worn out..Should be a flooring or tiles which are more hygienic.
Review 89:Room and bed were relaxing,We enjoyed a view from balcony. Ladies at reception were very polite and helpful.Bathroom was very clean and well supplied with bathroom accessories.Excellent breakfast and varies choices and again very nice and polite breakfast stuff.
Review 90:Breakfast was not so good as last time. They don't have fresh bread, bread rolls gone very fast. There was no peppermint tee, I asked for them every morning. They bring it to me from somewhere. On the last day I asked for 2 hours later checkout, receptionist told me that they have guests and its not possible. She didn't checked in computer and non verbal comunication told me that it wasn't true. It's sad that two little things didn't get them the best review.
Review 91:Great value for money, clean rooms, friendly staff. Almost nothing to complain.
Review 92:Very helpful front desk, within easy walking distance of lake & also bus to Ljubljana, & close to best restaurant experience in Slovenia.
Review 93:Not much style or personality, commodity feel.
Review 94:Great location, great views, decent restaurant with a complete breakfast, clean and serviceable rooms, friendly staff, free Wifi and parking.
Review 95:Room not on lake side and price difference silly,noted on last day there, that the Hotel was less than 10%full.
Review 96:Good size room really handy to bus and lake.good staff really pleasant
Review 97:Pool was very small
Review 98:Great location, just across from the bus station, nice walk through the park to get to the lakeside also. Room was clean and comfortable with a good view. Although the size of the hotel can make it a bit impersonal the staff were helpful and friendly
Review 99:The hotel rooms are extremely outdated, cramped and have a distinct sewer type odor. Our sleep was interrupted at night due to the large tour buses of people coming to the hotel for cheap dining (they clearly were not guests of the hotel). The staff was very curt and reprimanding. I believe that the staff is overworked and takes out their unhappiness on the guests.
Review 100:the location
Review 101:We enjoyed staying here and liked the: * overall cleanliness and comfortable feel * availability of on site bike hire * proximity to everything, and * generally welcoming staff
Review 102:Building is a bit old. One of the bike we rented from the hotel was broken, breaks were not working at all, which turned out on the mountain. At the end they cancelled the rental fee for both bikes.
Review 103:The hotel is quite good, rooms are clean, nice view to the lake. 2 min walking distance from the lake Bled, close to everythig.
Review 104:Nothing I can recall.
Review 105:The hotel is very close to Lake Bled. Breakfast was good. We stayed in a family room with a full bed and two twin beds. The arrangement was ideal for us.

Review 107:Comfortable and convenient. Close to lake and had all necessities expected.

Review 110:Staff wasn't very friendly at the front desk.
Review 111:Location of the hotel was great, breakfast buffet included lots ofchoices and was included in the room rate, dinner buffet was quite cheapfor a buffet (13 euros only per person), and it was nice to have all ofthe facilities you need for a hotel.
Review 112:No air conditioning and rooms were warm at night with windows closed. However, with windows open we could hear the loud bar singing from across the lake until 3 a.m. every night! The swimming pool is the size of a large spa! Two strokes max! Kids are not allowed to splash in there at all.
Review 113:Wonderful view of the castle and lake from our room and balcony. Peaceful, quiet, great food for breakfast and a reasonable meal deal in the evenings if you don't want to go out. Spa services if you want. Close walk to lake and small downtown area.
Review 114:There was no air conditioning in my room and this could be a problem in hot weather.
Review 115:I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Jelovica. I was fortunate to get a top floor balcony room overlooking the lake. The views were wonderful and I would recommend trying for a similar room.
Review 116:Not much choice of fruit for breakfast.
Review 117:The hotel is very near the lake with lovely views. Nice evening meals especially the desserts. Quiet area. Staff were efficient and pleasant at all times.

Review 119:Big room, LCD SAT TV, safe deposit box, excellent breakfast and supper, free parking, kind staff, location near the lake
Review 120:The friendly and helpful staff, the cosy room, the balcony with the nice view to the park and lake. It´s an easy walk to the place where you are allowed to swim in the lake, to the "city" center and to the way around the lake and to the castle.
Review 121:our room was 4th floor but not facing lake and there was some noise from passersby in the street late at night
Review 122:Location Cleanliness good breakfast drinks, wine and beer included with dinner friendly staff
Review 123:Not sure why there were lots of reserved tables at breakfast?
Review 124:Location ideal for bus station and central area. Clean, friendly and reasonable facilities.
Review 125:Little flexibility - not possible to check in the room before 2 pm or to have late check out after 11:30 am
Review 126:Very comfortable room: big, with good bed Nice view on the church from the balcony Swimming pool Nice bar just some meters away Breakfast with a wide variety of food items Close to the castle
Review 127:has no English news channels at all. Internet nearly none existing. Very controlled by hotel. Very noisy from backpackers down at the lake. .The mini bar looked not connected.
Review 128:pretty location scenery
Review 129:The only drawback seemed to be very noisy atmosphere created by the student groups staying nearby in the Hostel. Very often, they were crying almost the whole night when coming back from the town's attractions.
Review 130:Jelovica is one of the best hotels we had in Slovenia. Excellent location, friendly and polite staff, extremely tasteful and various meals and drinks (we had half-board). The restaurant deserves a special mentioning and good words not only for the nice menu but also for good service and kind attention to visitors
Review 131:the room we had was excellent with a lakeside view and view of surrounding areas. choice for breakfast and local shops/bars and cafes within walking distance
Review 132:The only problem that we had was related to smoking smell from other rooms porches ,we had to close the windows in order not to smell it.
Review 133:The location is great ,2 minutes walking from the lake and other Bled lake attractions . Great place for Star trip .We had a great Family Suite (4 Adults) Lake side The rooms were very clean ,the level of service was good . The breakfast was good .once we ate dinner and saw a traditional show , the dinner price was the cheapest one all over Slovenia and the buffet was excellent .
Review 134:The room did not have tea and coffee making facilities. This would have improved our stay. Also the decoration needed a bit of updating however there was evidence that this was in progress in some of the rooms. The evening meal was good value for money and included drinks but we were glad that we only had half board because we enjoyed visiting other restaurants in town for a greater choice.
Review 135:I thought the atmosphere at the hotel was very friendly and homely. The staff were helpful. The place was clean and everything in the room was in good working order. The family suite we had met our needs very well and the view was beautiful. The food at breakfast was very good. The facilities were also good for us we enjoyed using the Billiard room and the swimming pool and gym. The location is also excellent. Very good value for money.
