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.

    My wife and I don't go to castles very often, but I was in Trenčín Teplice and we decided to visit the monumental Trenčín Castle a few kilometers away.

    This castle "looks" at you from afar with its dominant feature. One of us is after a knee operation and the steep climb was not quite ideal, but after overcoming the initial hill, a great show awaited us with a wonderful view not only of Trenčín, but also of the distant surroundings.

    There is a cafe in the castle with nice older ladies, although the food is good, but we didn't mind.

    We paid for the one-hour longer tour with a guide. Our guide, Renáta, with heavily rusty hair, took care of us. She was really nice, helpful and above all an expert in her profession. Since we were four visitors, we learned a lot of remarkable information.

    The name of this fountain refers to a Vodnik, which is a type of Slavic male water spirit with the body of a man and the face of a frog. The fountain has an innovative and creative design. The centrepiece of the fountain is a sculpture of a well and a Vodnik has climbed over the top, spitting water from his mouth. Great for for children who love to dodge the "spit"

    Yesterday I visited Slovakia, also the city of Trencin. From the city tower (gate) is a beautiful view of the city of Trencin (see my photos). Visit this view point, there is a lift.

    The Plague Pillar is located in the central Trencin and is a great place to meet friends and to take a view of the castle day or night. Your visit can be short or you can sit on one of the benches around the monument relax and enjoy the beautiful city. This is also one of several ideal meeting places within the city.

    This was a highlight of our trip, the Christmas market here in Trencin. The public area would be attractive at any time, but it was magical with the stalls of food, drink, and crafts.

    An interesting way to access the church. As you can see from the picture its an enclosed step-way. Its not too long but if you are elderly and have trouble with steps generally, you may want to take it easy if you are going to attempt it. But there is a handrail if you need it.

    Once you reach the top the church itself is very pleasant but the views across the surrounding countryside are more impressive. You can literally see for miles, with all the different coloured fields with various crops, the railway line and other sites.

    This shopping mall is realy good designed, you feel like you are on a walk and you just wander between different shops. There is place to eat some fastfood, the playground, fitness center, lot of different clothing shops, shoes shops, book shop, grocery etc. I can really find there what I need.

    A bit shorter than expected, but worth it. A small building, where the city executioner used to live.

    Sturovo namestie is a public square in Trencin. There's the usual array of cafes and restaurants in and around the square. The original square was for holding cattle and grain markets, which gave rise to its name - Cereal Market. The centre of the square a cute little fountains called vodníka Valentína, which features a type of male water spirit from Slovak myths.

    The square is pleasant enough, but I wouldn't go out of the way to see it.

    If you are in Trencin you should make a quick stop in the Hotel Elizabeth to see this piece of history. As mentioned, you will need to take an elevator in order to view it through the glass.
