EU presidency


Slovenia took over the presidency of EU in the first half of this year. For Grand Hotel Toplice this was an important event since we hosted people such as Mr. Solana, Mr. Barroso, Mr. Ban Ki-Moon and many others. We also hosted several gala dinners for different events. On one side I am sorry that it is over and the presidency will be taken over by France in just a few days. On the other side, it will be quiet a relief for many of our guests as well as staff, since everything will go back to normal. No more tight security measures, no more police in and outside of the hotel, no more VIP related stress. I suppose if this was a kind of international test for Slovenia, we all did quite well.

Now back to the hotel. Julijana, our “A la carte” restaurant has opened its outside terrace with new set of chairs and tables made of acacia wood. The photo will tell you more! Don't you just wish to be able to sit there, admire the view and enjoy good food?
