Bratislava (Slovakia)
 

Got to go for a few days on business. Anyone else been? What are the people like? Anything I should see or do for the little time I will have free there?

Bumping this thread into 2007
Im planning a trip there in May, ant tips fellas?

Price of food and drink, places to go/see?


TIA

Blimey!!! This is a blast from the past!! :)

Must say, the quality of accommodation ranged from very nice, to very not nice! However, it was cheep as chips over there. In the very nice hotel, a three course gourmet meal with a couple of bottles of the local brew cost about £6!

Friendly people though.

mate be careful lol slovakia, hostel movie comes tae mind mate and the gypsies :D


be careful and as they say in the hostel loadsa single wimmin who lack men their so u may get a few wifeys who want a british visa so u may be in luck :D

Ha yes cheers for the reply, maybe fancy Tallinn also. What is this place like?

Found this great site for checking flights Cheap flights - low cost and budget airline specialist in Europe & Australasia

I'll be there tomorrow morning. :)

Not stopping there though, just passing through heading east. So unlikely I'll have many recommendations for you.

women are amazing apparently

I was there a good few years back, men in long black coats were at pretty much every shop and usually had a bleached blond woman with them, vacant look in the eyes. Quite pleasant really.

Depends. Is it a stag do? If so, I recommend Kotva. The only place to go in Bratislava in my opinion - for that sort of thing.

Its a good 10 minute cab ride out of town, you will wonder where you are going at first, but well worth it. Cabbie will park himself and wait for when you want to go back! Very strange I thought.

If you are there with the Missus, definitely DO NOT go to Kotva, unless she is very kinky!!

Centre of the city has many bars and restaurants, with good food and the beer is about 70p a pint - nice stuff too.

Enjoy.

Not a stag do as all. But a few mates going out for a beer really.

Talking to my friends last night seems we are leaning towards Tallinn.

yep they are, and theres plenty of them too:thumb:
