Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Read a few reviews on different sites and decided to go for a day from Vienna, as its only one hours drive.
Very pleasant afternoon in an old town, which has lots of cafes, few shops, lovely buildings and a castle. Unfortunately outside the old town its just an old communist city, with high rise, uninteresting buildings etc. so an afternoon in Bratislava old city is more than enough to get a feeling

As you walk under the gate your first impression of the capital will be inspiring. Fresh and active with outgoing people, the many cafes and bars are lined along the street emanating from the entrance. The dome is scaffolded and under repair in June of 2022.

Tower Michaels gate is the only tower of the old city walls that is left. It is at the end of St Michaels street. It used to sit over a moat surrounding the old city in the 1300's. It is a must see if the old city as its one of the oldest buildings in town.

I read about the gate and it is definitely a must-see! What was impressive about it was how large it was. I also found the restaurants to be top-notch, and the people watching to be fantastic. Everyone was having such a great time. Bratislava is a beautiful city with a relatively compact center. I highly recommend it.

One of the oldest historical building, more than 500 years old. Remaining gate, one of four ones in past. Attracting visitors, connected to busy streets of old town serving tourists with restaurants, 🍺 or coffee ☕️.

Michalska Brana is the only city gate that still preserved from the old medieval fortifications. The first tower was built in the 1300s and got it’s present Baroque style during a phase of reconstruction in the 18th century. I thought it looked okay and not much different from many other medieval gates, but I didn’t go inside or climb the tower, so maybe that was a factor.

Lovely entrance to Old Town, there is also a small bridge where you can take some nice pictures. There is also a museum inside. Also plenty shops and restaurants in the area which is usually filled with tourists.

Just to pass and look. Beautiful but really crowded during the day. Close to the all attractions on the old town

Olá, bom dia
O Edgar de Porto Alegre, foi a única pessoa em todas as pesquisas que tenho feito na internet, que citou ter visitado Bratislava em um domingo. Eu, em agosto estarei lá, também em um domingo, e gostaria de saber como e o que funciona na cidade neste dia da semana. Segundo esta pessoa já sei que a Torre de São Miguel não estará aberta para visitação. Poderiam me fornecer mais alguma informação?
Obrigada, fico no aguardo

Bom dia!
A torre estava fechada, ela fica no centro antigo, é um calçadão bem legal... Tem algumas lojas e restaurantes. Um passeio imperdível é a torre UFO, fui a noite, mas acredito que durante o dia a vista seja mais bonita ainda. O castelo também vale a pena visitar. Tem uma vista muito legal da cidade e fica perto do centro antigo. Tem um restaurante brasileiro na cidade ``Rio Café´´, não me lembro exatamente onde ficava, mas era um lugar bem legal de se conhecer. Boa viagem!
