it's one of the safest cities in Europe, I worked at the souvenir store, and didn't have any worries leaving from work at 21:00, could most safely walk home or get a bus and go without worrying I'm always going in earphones and don't worry about being robbed

Bratislava is pretty much very safe, there’s always people in town also at night even during week.. mostly young people helpfull and friendly.. both day and night id say bratislava is very safe even for solo travel ladies :)))
Posted: April 28, 2025It’s safe, but during the weekends when there is a lot of people out in the centre of the city there is a bigger chance of encountering some drunk people or late at night a drunk homeless guy. But overall maybe just have your phone close by because there could be some thieves in the centre
Posted: April 28, 2025It is very safe. I have been living here for 15 months already and I have never experienced anything bad. I am always careful as an alone girl and it's a habit because it's necessary but overall city it's safe.
Posted: April 27, 2025It’s pretty safe city , of course you should avoid some places that could be dangerous , and during the night it’s better to not be completely alone ,when you go party is better to be in a group , avoid zones as pentagone

Bratislava is overall a very safe destination even for solo female travellers, of course you have to be careful with strangers and rather walk at busier streets during the night time, but people in Bratislava are very nice and helpful

In my own experience I can say Bratislava is really safe place to live in, I’ve lived here for 10 years and not once did I experience any issues or problems.

I think Bratislava is a city sa any other. There have been some bad attacks and threats but it's not on a regular basis. It is quite exceptional and rare. Personally, for 20 years in my life I have never been a part of anny assault or threat, nor a witness
Posted: January 30, 2025I think in Bratsiava we have normal life mostly teenagers. If something happens to you somebody will take care of you for sure. I think people in Bratislava are kind and polite so If you ask somebody will help you.
Posted: January 27, 2025Town where i live my whole life is very safe for poeple (young or old, girlsor boys). You can visit my town and don't have to worry about someone stealing or attacking you. The city is very safe during the day and also at night.

I felt pretty safe in Bratislava during the day but less at night, especially around the Centrum bus station and the Obchodná street. So, I will recommend you to go out with other people and not alone in this city. I really like the Devin Castle with beautiful landscape of nature, very relaxing. I enjoyed a lot too the city Center and the view from the castle and muzeum mesta bratislavy I will recommend the spot “Pasteleria” for the coffee time
Posted: April 23, 2025First of all, I would like to say that it is a very safe place for solo travel. Prices are not too high compared to other European cities. Their most famous dish is similar to halusky niyokki. you can try. Slavin, Slovak National Gallery, Blue Church, Bratislava Castle, Devin Castle are the places you should definitely go. 2 days will be enough to visit the whole city. It was pretty easy to find the buses with google maps. local people were very helpful. They generally know English. In summary, it is a place where you can go and see, but you should not keep expectatiın very high.

Hello!! I'm Lea and I'm 18, currently studying in Bratislava. I'm a classical music student and I loove art and music. I'm a very creative person and I always try to stay curious and learn new things about the world around me. I love visiting art galleries, historical cities and coffee shops but on the other hand I also adore hiking and discovering new places in the nature. This summer I'd like to use the opportunity of finally being 18 and visit new places in the world without the need of a legal guardian. :) can't wait to see what this app has to offer🤞🏼❤️
