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.

What travellers are saying
- Janik S4 contributionsDevin Castle has its charm, but it might not appeal to everyone. The ruins and the view of the Danube are captivating, though on a gloomy day, the atmosphere can feel a bit melancholic. However, as history enthusiasts, we truly appreciate its rich past and unique ambiance.Written 24 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- snowieWombourne, UK469 contributionsThis is a great place to wander around and soak up the atmosphere. Lots of shops to visit. Worth a visit.would recommend.Written 5 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- sunsuenycNew York City, NY37 contributionsThe Old Town Hall houses a museum, and the ability to have an elevated view of the old town area. The museum is very informative about the history of Bratislava, if that interests you. Many things to see and learn about. The best part of this visit though is the view from the top of the tower. There's an outside area where you can view the surroundings from all sides of the tower. Highly recommend adding this to your visit to Bratislava.Written 20 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Michaelk4kSouthampton, UK216 contributionsVery much enjoyed our trip to the cathedral. Beautiful inside and out.
It’s difficult to see how old buildings such as this can be improved from a visitor perspective.
I would have liked to have seen more information inside regarding the various coronations which took place inside. Taking nothing away from a very good viewing experienceWritten 14 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

But it should be on yours. It was a great bargain compared to all the other palaces we've toured. It was more modest than some of those places, to be sure. But it was well worth the small entrance charge. "By the way, "Primate" refers to a religious title, not to "apes" or something.) We quite enjoyed the audio tour and principally that it gave us a nice place to come in out of the weather on a rainy afternoon.Written 7 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LW811055Hawaii695 contributionsPur guide made this claim because there were about 6,000 graves next to the Danube River. As the river level rose, they moved all graves to higher ground except for 23 (one of which is Schreiber one of the famous Jewish Rabbis).Written 22 May 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Tiberiu_BaranyiTimisoara, Romania18,605 contributionsIn July 2024 we've been back to Bratislava for a few days and we have visited - again - the castle of Bratislava.
Since we were walking, coming from the direction of the old town - obviously we've been entering the Castle premises via the the Sigismund gate.
It got it's name from Sigismund of Luxemburg - Hungarian, Croatian, Roman, and Bohemian king and lets not forget Holy Roman Emperor between 1387–1437 ( mentioning that he was crowned at different periods of time in Hungary, Bohemia , etc. - however he was ruling altogether 50 years over several countries and eventually an Empire).
The gate is still impressive and according to the details as you can find if you are researching a bit ( or simply walk the castle hill with both eyes open and reading the divers signs here an' there ...) it is looking the same way since 1515 ... so more than 500 since it got this appearance.
A nice architectural piece, part of the fortification of the castle of Bratislava , when visiting for sure it is worth some minutes of your time and some pictures.Written 17 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

They give you a feel for the age of the city. We walked through a few sections of these when sightseeing through the city. When we tried to get up n the walls down by the St Martens cathedral, the gates were closed so we didn't bother chasing up the other entrances.Written 9 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JeffTheChairmanExeter, UK1,069 contributionsWhilst in Bratislava we found the Pharmacy Salvator
A beautiful Art Nouveau building Which photographs really well but does look unloved and in need of some TLCWritten 16 August 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Neil KLiverpool, UK828,151 contributionsStefanikova Street is a very long street that brings you directly into the Old Town, it's a street that has some amazing architecture along,some really grand architecture including the Government Office and the Summer Archbishops Palace, there's also innumerable pubs and bars along the street including the awesome Fabrika ,Dungeon Pub,Bon Bon Jazz Bar,Flame Music Bar and many many more ,not just along the street but the side streets along Stefanikova Street, there's only one problem and that's the constant traffic, it's a major artery into the city centre and there is a constant flow of traffic ,this can't be helped but it takes away from the beautiful architecture along this street and the great nightlife, that said it's still a cool place to walk along and is most definitely well worth checking out if your planning a holiday to this most beautiful of cities.Written 20 December 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
