Bratislava City Break Guide

When you arrange your flight with one of the airlines operating Bratislava Airport and book your accommodation, get ready for an unforgettable weekend city break in our "Little Big City".

Friday

After you check-in at the one of the recommended Bratislava hotels or apartments, just stroll around Korzo, the pedestrian only zone of the historical city centre. Enjoy the unique atmosphere of Bratislava and meet some strange local folks. For dinner, we would recommend you to have some typical Slovak food. Why not trying Prasna Basta Restaurant on Zamocnicka street or Perugia Hotel Restaurant Gazdovsky dvor on Zelena street? Tempt your taste buds with hearty Slovak & Hungarian cuisine, well washed down with a glass of good beer or quality wine. And if you don’t feel like going to bed after dinner, you might want to have a drink or two at Peoples Lounge on Gorkeho. This place will definitely be full of party people on Friday night.

Saturday

Saturday morning would be the ideal time for some sightseeing. It is nice just to walk around the Old Town with its essential sights. Stop at one of the numerous cafes and restaurants for a drink and soak up the cosy atmosphere of Bratislava. You can also go for one of the scheduled city tours that will also give you brief information on Bratislava's rich history. After the walking you can stop by for a typical pub food at the popular Dubliner Irish Pub on Sedlarska street or having some spicy treat at the next-door Hacienda Mexicana. Whether you take a short nap after the lunch or not, you definitely should not skip a tour of the upturned-bed-like Bratislava Castle with its medieval exhibits. The Castle hill offers panoramic views of the city. As an alternative, you could take an elevator up to the UFO-like tower and restaurant above the New Bridge with the roofless observation deck at 95 meters above the street level. If you are into the history and art, check one of Bratislava museums and galleries. In the evening, it is time to enjoy the latest culinary trends in one of the stylish restaurants, e.g. Tempus Fugit on Sedlarska, Paparazzi on Laurinska street or
Le Monde on Hviezdoslavo namestie. If you feel like partying the 17’s Bar on Hviezdoslavovo namestie, Woch Music Club on Frantiskanske namestie or Charlies Pub on Spitalska might be the places for you to be. If the drinks & dance is not what you are looking for, you could spend a romantic night in the acclaimed, yet favourably priced Bratislava Opera in its beautiful historical building on Hviezdoslavovo namestie.

Sunday

On Sunday morning you could take a boat trip to the historical Castle of Devin. Or just relax and pamper yourself in Aulandia Spa situated in the AUPARK shopping mall just across the Danube, on the other side of the New Bridge. Water attractions, jacuzzis, massages and other treats are available. For a piece of action, you might try rafting in Cunovo. After the pleasant morning, you will definitely love the exquisite brunch at the Opera Brasserie at the historical Carlton Hotel. This dining experience could be one of the highlights of you trip. Before you leave our "Little Big City", you will probably want to get some souvenirs in one of the small shops around the Main Square, to remind you the nice time spent in Bratislava.
