Between the two world wars, Bled remained the most cosmopolitan spa in Yugoslavia and the summer residence of the Karadjordjević family, the Yugoslav royal family. It was also visited by many domestic and foreign guests. It became a centre of political and diplomatic life in the summer months. After World War II it continued its tourist tradition - its inhabitants took over and renovated many tourist-recreation facilities which passed into Slovene hands. Since Tito had a residence in Vila Bled, Bled was visited by many statesmen, politicians and culturati from Yugoslavia and abroad. Vila Bled has been renovated and is today a top category hotel which can accommodate even the most demanding guests. Arnold Rikli, however, has not been forgotten. On the 50th anniversary of his activities, his admirers erected a monument to him at Straža which can still be seen, as well as issuing a memorial plaque. On his 125th anniversary, the Bled Tourist Association erected a monument to him in the Spa Park.
