First 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.
Posted: July 15, 2024Experienced: May, 2024It’s really safe for solo traveler to travel in their capital city, there’s not much things to do in Bratislava, I recommend to take a bus 20mins to a small town , there is a meditation circle on the hill of the town which is really amazing!

Posted: May 21, 2023Bratislava is not too big, not too crowded, has a nice old town, a castle, and several very good museums, which are not big enough to get bored there. Amazing views of the Danube. There are many inexpensive restaurants, tasty food, and good beer and wine. I felt very safe there. I visited Devín Castle on a hill, located at the confluence of the Morava and Danube, a picturesque place.

Posted: September 3, 2022It really it depends on the part of town, I think the old town is very safe, I've lived here all my life and nothing bad has ever happened to me. But some parts of the city like Petržalka or Vrakuňa are more dangerous.

Depends of the specific district but over all I would say that Bratislava is mostly safe. I would say it is safe also to go with public transport at night but there are option to grab a cab and be sure that you will return home safely

I spent 2 days in Bratislava and that was enough for me. I visited Devín Castle in the first half of the day, and then I went to the center - Hrad, the Old Town, and covered all the major landmarks. The next day I went to see St. Elizabeth's Church, it was built from blue stone and looked amazing. It is located a bit off the beaten path, so I went there another day (after the main landmarks). I also combined this with a visit to Rusovce Castle, which offers beautiful views and has a large park.
Posted: May 28, 2023I was in Bratislava last month. Charming city, small, but there's plenty to do. However, it's not the best place for nightlife.

Hi fellow traveller.:) I'm Finn and one important thing you need to know about me is that I love people. That's why I decided to study Antropology! Thanks to many great people in my life and EU funds (Erasmus+ projects and so on) I was able to visit many countries. But there's more to explore. I cannot wait to meet others, either on my travels or in my city while showing you around, going for a hike or meeting over a cup of coffee :)

Hey there! I'm a digital nomad and I work as a product manager for a digital health company, which allows me to travel and explore new places. The San Francisco Bay Area is home. Some fun facts about me: - I have a passion for music and play both the piano and viola. I tried teaching myself a little guitar an ukulele as well. I listen to music a lot, and love discovering new tunes and sharing them with others. - I also enjoy staying active. I ran a marathon all the way back in 2014! It's definitely time to train for another one :-) - Hiking is another favorite activity of mine, and I had an unforgettable experience hiking the Inca Trail in October 2022. - I'm fluent in English and speak some Spanish. - I have a soft spot for animals and have spent a lot of time traveling through housesitting and pet sitting. - My great grandparents are Slovakian! I am working on learning some phrases and applying for citizenship by descent.
