Traditional elements in the architecture of our resorts

Each new renovation incorporates local architectural elements into the design of our accommodation facilities, swimming pools, and other facilities. While staying at our Rikli Balance Hotel in Bled, you can learn about spruce trees from Pokljuka, about the Carniolan honey bee, about the gingerbread heart, and about traditional embroidery from the Gorenjska region, or take a break in the style of Arnold Rikli, who is considered the pioneer of health tourism in Bled. The rooms at Hotel Park have been furnished with spruce wood, while also capturing the symbolism of water, of Lake Bled, and of the forest. On the coast, Hotel Histrion at the St. Bernardin Resort Portorož welcomes you with dry stone walls, Istrian shutters, and oak trees typical of this part of Slovenia, while the rooms tell stories of lavender, of the sea, and of olive trees. The latter can also be experienced at the resort’s renovated Hotel Vile Park Premium. At Terme 3000 – Moravske Toplice, all three hotels tell stories of Prekmurje. The rooms of the 5-star Hotel Livada Prestige feature Prekmurje straw and corn husk weaving, which are unique elements of handicraft tradition; buckwheat motifs are featured at every turn in Hotel Ajda (in the pillows, in the interior of the swimming pool, and in the restaurant); and the swimming pools at Hotel Termal tell the story of crystals and rocks with beneficial effects.

Local cultural heritage through culinary delights

The approach of Slovenian chefs could be described as “back to local”. And that includes the chefs in our restaurants. Among them, the Michelin Plate and Recommended by Michelin award-winning chef Simon Bertoncelj, who indulges guests with culinary specialties in Bled, and the chef dream team, Danilo & Danilo, at Terme 3000, who prepare up to 50 local dishes from Prekmurje at the hotel restaurants. At Terme Ptuj, guests are pampered with cuisine of the Štajerska region and selected local wines; at Health Resort Zdravilišče Radenci, our chefs indulge you with authentic culinary delights from Prlekija and dishes made with mineral water; and at all three coastal resorts, our chefs find inspiration for local Istrian dishes in Istrian villages and in the sea. The variety of landscapes in which our resorts are located is reflected in the variety of flavours you can taste at our restaurants. With us, the culinary journey begins at the hotel!

Wellness pampering with a local twist

A bath of a thousand bubbles which gently caress your hands, making you feel like royalty at Health Resort Zdravilišče Radenci. The scent of blossoming Pannonian meadows and the soft embrace of pumpkin seed oil used in massages at Terme 3000. The intertwining of the beauty rituals of ancient Rome and modern beauty treatments at Terme Ptuj. Pampering in an Istrian hammam, algae wraps, or a salt scrub on the coast. Or Alpine wellness with spruce tips and honey gathered by Carniolan honey bees. Even our wellness pampering has a local twist!

In touch with the local environment, customs, and sights

All our resorts are ideal starting points for discovering the special features, sights, and traditions of the local environment. Explore the mysteries of natural and cultural attractions by bike or on foot, and visit the surrounding tourist farms, where you can not only indulge your taste buds with local homemade specialities, but also learn about various crafts and treat yourself to the charm of an authentic local experience.

Discovering landscapes through fairy tales

Holidays with children usually revolve around activities and trips tailored specifically for them. So, what could be better than exploring and discovering new landscapes through the eyes of a child? Exploring your holiday location through local fairy tales will make your holiday even more miraculous! Here are the enchanting fairy tales and stories that unveil the mysteries of Pomurje, Bled, the Slovenian coast, and Štajerska.
