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
- gregeogTynemouth, UKA worthwhile activity when in Bratislava with a nice view of the rivers’ confluence. Accessible via public bus using the Bratislava Card and a nice walk up to the top. Don’t really need any more than an hour here and isn’t anything mindblowing.Written 28 February 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ExpertReviewer99Leeds, UKWe spent a good amount of time here. The ticket price included a lot! Definitely worth a visit if you are interested in history. Our ticket also involved going up the clock tower which served as an excellent viewpoint.Written 29 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Thomas KCopenhagen, DenmarkEntry for an adult was 6 Euro. On the ground floor it had an exhibition focusing on china and the Habsburgs. At the first floor rocks and fossils, and on the other floors stuffed animals, birds and so on. A lot to take in.Written 14 March 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- holidaymadddLondon, UKThere is some confusion amongst the reviews here. There are 2 separate Jewish museums. This Jewish museum is on the West of the old city and is open all year round. It has a number of Jewish religious items on the first floor (not particularly specific to Bratislava), and on the second floor details the history of the Slovakian Jews, the Holocaust and the post-Holocaust period. The narrative is lacking depth, and a number of key facts are missing such as why most surviving Jews left Slovakia post-WW2 (there were pogroms against the survivors by Slovakians who had effectively stolen the houses of the Jews that were sent to the concentration camps and were reluctant to return the houses to their rightful owners!). The secretary mentioned that they are looking to expand the exhibition, funding permitted.
There is a separate museum called the Jewish community museum, on the site of the old synagogue. It is closed in the winter, but if you email they can open up for a fee on request.Written 6 March 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

(Plus there’s also a bar).Written 27 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

The artefacts are nothing you would not have seen in any other museum of this type,
There are only a smattering of rooms open when we visited with staircases cordoned off so I have no idea if there are other exhibits to have been seen.
