Customer Reviews

Has all information you need.

Bratislava can almost be done without a guidebook, but this one has what little information you might need collected in one place.

Handy Guide

This small guide, easy to pop in a pocket, provided us with just about all the information we needed for planning a short stay in this city. Terrific!

The best Bratislava guide ever

This guide book is absolutely wonderful! It is the first guide I found which really does justice to this fabulous city and doesn't push a few lines into the back of a guide book about the Czech Republic. It has fascinating details on the complicated history and culture and what looks like an insider's guide to the hip restaurants, cafes and bars. The eating and drinking section is a pleasure to read on its own, as it is really witty and well-written and I would recommend this book to anybody who wants to know the city better. Many people say that there is not much to do in Bratislava, but obviously they could not have had this guide. It is impossible to be bored in Bratislava with this guide, there are dozens of suggestions of day trips, where to stay, eat and drink and some excellent walking tours of the city. After reading this guide from cover to cover, I can't wait to visit Bratislava and try out the revolving TV tower restaurant on Kamzik hill or the UFO cafe in a flying saucer spacecraft. They sound like such fun destinations! The pocket-sized Bradt guide is also great as it really does fit in your pocket or hand-bag and is easy to carry everywhere I go.
