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.

    Cute church, interesting style. I'm glad we didn't force ourselves to get up at 6am to see the inside, since during it's non-working hours, you can still go in through first doors and see the inside through the glassed second doors

    Great museum with a very interesting permanent exhibition. Parts of the walls are glass, so you can see the river from inside the building. Both indoors and outdoors exhibitions are lovely. Easy parking, very nice cafe. When sunny, enjoy a coffee break outside. You should spend at least one and a half hour to see the whole exhibition.

    This was the coronation church of the Hungarian empire from 1563 to 1830. Queen Maria Theresa was crowned here. The church and was rebuilt in the 18th century with a Baroque appearance. It has the remains of St John the Merciful from 620.

    We ended up here by accident after a walk along the waterfront. We ended our walk with a late breakfast at McDonalds, later realizing that we were in this mall.

    Really like the idea of the circus theme statues scattered about the property, with the window-ceiling that is akin to a circus dome. Happening upon each statue is like an Easter Egg hunt. Look in every direction!

    I can see from the photos of other TA entries that there are a lot of other statues I did not see, including outside.

    Otherwise, this is a nice, slick mall that is surprisingly large, within walking distance of the tourist areas, and a lot of shopping options.

    It is so lovely, as an American, to see such an incredibly beautiful building with the name "Philharmonic" on the top. How lucky Bratislava is to have such a beautiful place.

    Surprisingly it was bigger than expected and really interesting. Alot of Slovakian and Czech cars, motorcycles and there are trains plus there is a little boat model museum. There is nicely translated into English. I definitely recommend.

    I recently visited Bratislava's Mirror and Illusion Museum, and it was truly captivating. This small museum is a hidden treasure, offering a mind-bending journey through optical wonders, endless reflections, and interactive illusions. The hands-on exhibits were both fun and educational, making it a must-visit for anyone looking to experience a world where reality and imagination collide.

    The Slovak National Theatre looks really nice in the middle of the city. You can find very similar buildings in Hungary (Budapest, Szeged, etc.) also facilitating theatres.

    Really interesting building and collection. Firstly the building itself is an attractive powder-pink. It is topped by 150kg cast iron cardinal's hat. The rooms whilst not extensive are attractive. Historical it is important for the signing of the 'Peace of Pressburg' in 1805 after the Austrian defeat to Napoleon at Austerlitz. For history buffs it is interesting to think of Talleyrand working in these rooms to create the treaty.
    Regarding the contents, the most notable are six tapestries made in 1628 to 1630 in Mortlake near London.
    My only criticism would be that the pictures and furniture should have explanation plaques in English- sorry sounds nationalistic but it seems most tourists here understand English.

    The exhibitions are e quite small, featuring various Slovak artists, but it gives you a good flavour of Slovak art movements and the write up and presentation is great. There's a really nice library as well and professor hamster is brilliant - originally designed as a tool to help teach kids about art history and get them engaging, it's also terribly entertaining for adults as well.

    The visit is on three stairs. Many clocks to see from the 17th tilleul 19th century. It is open from 11 AM till 6pm on sunday. The house is very old and narrow on the way to the castle. the entrance is 2,5 €. Quite Nice museum. The entrance is on the left side.
