The ski resort in Jasna is a really great place for skiing! The slopes are varied, so both beginners and experienced skiers will enjoy it. The snow quality is great, and the slopes are well-maintained, which is awesome. Besides skiing, you’ll also find nice restaurants and après-ski activities where you can relax and grab a bite. It’s perfect for families, but if you’re an experienced skier, you’ll also find some challenging runs. Overall, if you’re looking for a solid ski experience, the ski resort in Jasna is definitely the right place to go.

Overall an amazing skii resort. Plenty of slopes for all levels. Did get very busy after New Years though with wait times of 30 minutes to just get on the beginner B3 chair lifts though.

Super bad! Jasna today is not what it was been couple of years ago. Super crowdy. You should wait in que for 1.5 hours. There is no available pay car parking. Infrastructure is not ready to take upon that many people. It is dangerous. Very many crushes. And over all prices are extremely high. Much more expensive than Austria, Italy or even Scandinavia! Don’t go there.

Great place and world-class ski resort, numerous blue, red and black ski slopes for everybody, many lifts and cable cars, numerous restaurants and bistros, après-ski bars, wellness centers and good transport which are free with ski pass. If you go with a car make sure you get there before 8am otherwise you won’t find parking space. Definitely suitable for a year-round visit, you will find many other attractions here and the whole region has a lot to offer, caves, bike rentals, hikes and many more. Highly recommended!!!

Really poor experience. They charge you 15 EUR for parking (you have to pay for a full day), even now during off season. You pay 31 EUR per adult to reach the top, just to find that the restaurant is closed. No mentions at the bottom, no mention on social channels.. we had 3 kids with us who we took the top to eat, as we knew it was cloudy so we couldn’t see much, we just wanted to take them to eat. The tiny bistro that was open instead, had no seating, no foods from their kids menu, and not surprising not a friendly service. To top it all off, you can only go down during designated hours, so we had to wait 25 minutes to go back down. 100 EUR spent between cable tickets, parking and French fries. Bad management is all I can say.

A world-class ski resort, numerous ski slopes, many lifts and cable cars, numerous restaurants and bistros, there are no shortage of luxury hotels, après-ski bars, wellness centers and good transport. Definitely suitable for a year-round visit, you will find many other attractions here and the whole region has a lot to offer.

One of the biggest ski resort in Slovakia with amazing tracks. I would really recommend to spend here at least 3-4 days to try all the tracks. The 4 star is because they stopped some of the elevators at 15:30 (they wrote 16) and on Monday despite the many skiers they stopped a few elevators all day. The quality of the tracks are the best before 2 PM. We will come back.

Well worth the price of the lift. The views are amazing and the hikes give you an extra perspective on the area. Get here early as parking gets full quickly. There are shuttle busses from parking lots further out, so it's not a major problem.

Very hard hiking here from both sides (jasná or trangoška) up or down. When you are going from Dumbier or Derese, it is better. At the top great views and good spot for sunsets, but it is quite overcrowded, because it is possible go here with cable cabin.

Chopok probably is the most visited mountain in Slovakia. It provides for one of the best round-views – you can see half of the country from the top. It also is the best skiing resort in Slovakia. Great choice of downhill skiing slopes, and cross-country skiing track Climb from the Jasná valley takes about 2 hours and is easy. Not to be missed!

Beautiful views, although quite windy and cloudy. Amazing place to ski. Queues to gondolas are pretty short - you have to wait no more than 10 minutes. On the peak there is also a small hotel, a restaurant, toilets and a souvenir shop but it's really expensive.

Amazing to be here! More than 2000 meters above the sea-level! Very fresh air, beautiful view for the surrounding high mountains! Once you have to be here, just hoping a nice, sunny weather without strong wind. I live to be here and look around. It has been taken my breath away...

Yet again, in winter season it’s superb place to visit. Blue tracks however are pretty narrow(although they are slow), and we prefer red but much wider

Jasna skiing… everything is perfect such as slope condition, not queueing and stunning view. If you are not fully ready for ski (beginner), just hit the road for trying. Jasna is ready for you 😁

Water park is nice, a bit dated but nice. Kids loved it. The issue with the place is that it's much too expensive, and the facility doesn't justify the price. We have been to better waterparks with better facility in more affordable prices. Price is 32 euro for kids 6-11 36 euro for 11-18 and 42 euro for adults. Other than that, it's a good place to spend a day with the kids. If the price was better I would rank it higher, due to the price I give it 3 stars. Although we might go again in the future.

I used to enjoy and relax here from time to time but not anymore. Its too expensive and its no longer worth it. 42 Euros for a ticket? Nothing has changed in years. Plus the bathrooms aren't exactly the cleanest.

Fun place but needs some love. It looks like it’s straight from 2007 and it looks dated. I’m fine with higher prices but the prices in the aqua park restaurant is a daylight robbery. Probably our last visit before they fully refurbish the damn place. Thanks for having us!

Sure! Here's your translated text in English: --- Excellent hotel, in a rural location with stunning views, a natural river, and hiking trails. Plenty of activities for children – facilities, various slides, different pools, and many restaurants at reasonable prices. The rooms are excellent – fully equipped with a kitchen, utensils, microwave, induction stove. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. There is a supermarket nearby. You can cook meals in the room. We arrived by direct train and then took a taxi for about 15 minutes. Highly recommended!

I am sat, torn on weather to go from 5 to 4 or 3 stars and find i can't go higher than 3. The thing that let it down for me was the food. The food was tasty, however, whilst in the queue I noticed one of the main chefs carry one of the near empty food tins to the kitchen, grabbing a handful of left over food on the way and stuffing it in his mouth, then coming straight back out and using the same hand and gloves to touch other pre prepared food. To me this is totally unhygienic and not what you would expect for the price and experience. There is absolutely no way he changed those gloves, as i watched him go in to the kitchen and straight back out. Totally disgusting. Then my daughter was eating her children's chicken and mentioned one felt "chewy", only to find it wasn't cooked through and was cold in the middle. My wife complained, and they gave us more, however we really didn't want more and just wanted to highlight the food hygiene concerns. I would happily return again, but would be tempted to argue about bringing my own food, as i wouldn't trust getting it here. Such a shame, as the water park is otherwise fantastic and well worthy of 5 stars. Note that i understand they appear to outsource the kitchen to Unilever, and will write directly to them in my return home with my concerns too.

Our visit to the water park was an amazing experience for the whole family. The place is clean, well-organized, and very well maintained, with a great variety of slides and attractions suitable for both kids and adults. The pools are spacious and pleasant, and the overall atmosphere is relaxed and fun. The staff is friendly and always ready to help. In addition, the on-site restaurants offer a wide variety of tasty food, which makes the day even more enjoyable.t’s definitely a perfect spot to spend the entire day – a wonderful mix of fun, relaxation, and enjoyment.

The water park is good and the lines are Ok , better for kids under 8 but everyone can find something to have fun. • Giovanni Restaurant inside the water park : We arrived at 3:00 PM. No wait for a table, but we were told only pasta was available—no pizzas, no salads. We ordered pasta for the family; 10 minutes later, the waitress returned to say pasta had also run out and only drinks were available. That’s unacceptable stock management for mid-afternoon. • wellness: Large facilities, but no age restriction meant many teenagers constantly roaming around, which made it far less relaxing. • Water Park: Fun for families, particularly best for kids under 8. Older kids/teens may find it limited.

I came to see this beautifully designed building by Dušan Kuzma and was really excited to see inside of it after admiring it from the outside. For 5 euro entrance you can't see any of it? It has a two room exhibition on the bottom floor of the smaller half, I didn't even spend 5 minutes and asked that my ticket be given to someone else if possible as I'd already paid. Lady on front desk was very nice, but would have been nice to know before paying there's no ability to see the building, not even see the second floor or the other half of the building accessable. Really disappointing.

Really glad we found this museum. The outdoor war machines are great to stroll around. The museum itself is quite small but well organised with a great collection of guns and clothes to peruse. Most but not all information is in English. We did not use the audio guide which we thought was quite expensive. Also really dislike when museums charge a photography fee (photos we take that can promote the museum!)We came on a Sunday and fortunately it was a half price day for some reason. My recommendation for the museum would be to share more specific stories of the uprising that would bring it to life more.

Stunning building, meh exposition. Just a teeny tiny classic soviet war museum, all around the same red flags, big brother help, machine guns, evil enemy so on. Worth seeing from the outside only

We quite enjoyed this museum, was quite small but informative. Unfortunately you do have to pay to take pics and video. There are the planes and tanks that you can explore also a lot weapons used in the uprising too. A few hours would be plenty of time to explore the museum.

Small but amazing story about war!!

I love this place. I was here many times. This place is big part of Slovak history. There is interesting collection of armored vehicles out side and inside is realy nice museum about Slovak national uprising 1944.

The Museum SNP is really great overall! The Museum SNP is divided into two parts, the open air fixed displays are a bit older and show their age however the payed interior main museum is new, clean and interactive. The Slovak peoples history fighting fascism throughout WWII is very important and should never be forgotten.

Great place for a trip! The Museum of the Slovak Village offers an authentic glimpse into the lives of our ancestors. Beautifully preserved wooden houses, traditional crafts, and a lovely atmosphere. Perfect for a walk and learning about history. Highly recommend!

Very interesting museum with picturesque houses and other type of buildings. Area is divided per Slovakian regions and offers full immersion in the history. Opening hours are changing per seasons so check them in advance via Internet. There are also discounts for senior and disabled people. And the ticket includes the guided tour as well.

I can imagine that this place must look great in summer. I recommend to go for a commented tour with some of the ladies working at the place. No need to book anything, just wait for the tour to start when you get to the museum. With explanation of how the things worked back then and with some background stories, the visit is much more interesting than just looking around. Most of the tour or walk will happen outside, but some of the houses are open and you can peak in. Since the place has various opening hours during different months, check this information in advance. The tickets can be purchases at the place. It's possible to pay with a card, but the payment terminal is not always catching signal, so there might be a problem with that, we were told.

Nice place for a walk, relax and learn something about living in Slovakia before 2nd WW. If there would be opened shop with refreshments I would rate it with 5 stars.

Very delightful experience, we didn’t expected much but we have seen and learned a lot. Every second hour there is a guided tour around the museum, I really suggest to take it. Our guide today was young lady with interesting fashion choices, but nevertheless she is really knowledgeable and could answer any of ours questions. Kudos to her. By accident we were able to see a theater piece “Gazdina Roba” set in museum background. This was a cherry on the top. I was amazed with performance of all actors and how scenes were integrated in museum locations. Only letdown is that there is no place to eat, no restaurant, not even a kiosk or snack available.

Probably one of the largest folk museums in Slovakia - very interesting, you may spend hours wandering between old houses, cabins or barns imagining how the countryside looked like many, many years ago. Worth visiting!

A beautiful museum with a lot of old houses. And beautiful scenerey of Mountain in the backround. Friendly personal the explain you in the beginning what you can see

Beautiful place and being there at opening (?) day with the medieval days and theatrics really added to the experience. The place, situated as it is has absolutely stunning views and the castle is pretty well maintained while keeping the old and original. I loved going around and even though all the entertainment was in Slovak, at least we got to see the place and enjoyed the historic peasant food, saw cannons shot and owls/falcons flying on command which got our kiddos ecstatic.

Wow after 20 years of driving past we stopped and visited. Fantastic castle really Fantastic helpful guided tour. The cost of entry is so reasonable. At the end of the tour there is a video explaining the castle over the years thsts is really interesting and informative. I personally feel this should be at the beginning pre the tour so you get to understand more of the history. Thank you so much.

Very nice castle. The entrence fee was good value. The tourguide also gave some information in english

We had a really nice time visiting these conserved castle ruins. The views from the site are excellent, offering some memorable photo opportunities. Our guide was quite good; their commentary certainly helped to imagine what the castle was like in its prime. The small music break was a pleasant addition too. It's a worthwhile stop if you're in the area!

Guided tours here. You must arrange in advance for a tour in another language. Great views.

The reconstructed ruins of Strečno caste can only be visited with a guide (tickets available at the small souvenir store by the entrance). Our guide was super enthusiastic and knowledgeable (we took a slovak language tour). We had a great time discovering the architecture and history of the castle. Definitely worth it! The paid parking lot is right next to the main road, and you can get to the castle on foot (stairs! 15-20 minutes).

Cool historical castle. Great views too

(Translated by Google) A wonderful place with a unique atmosphere, one feels humble here. We parked in the parking lot and took a leisurely walk to the top, where we were rewarded with a beautiful view, not even the unfriendly weather deterred us.

Beautiful place

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place for a short hike. View if you pay 2€/person (for the viewpoint) and leave a 10€ deposit for the key they will let you up to the viewpoint. Otherwise the parking fee is 4€/3 hours. I also think the view is nice, you can take nice photos there. Parking tickets are bought at the info center, if it is closed you can buy it from a machine. At the info center they will also give you a key to the viewpoint. They also sell souvenirs there and the service in the buffet was pleasant. Overall I rate it very good. There is also a toilet along the way (first chapel on the right). You will also get a map at the info where everything is shown. (Original) Krásne miesto na malú túru. Výhľad ak si zaplatíte 2€/os ( na vyhliadku ) a necháte 10€ zalohu za kľúčik tak vas pustia aj hore na vyhliadku. Inakparkovné je 4€/3hod. Myslím ai, že ten výhľad je pekný, urobíte si tam aj pekné fotky. Liskty na parkovanie sa kupujú v infocentre, ak je zatvorené kupuje sa cez automat. V infocentre vám dajú aj kľúčik na vyhliadku. Predávajú tam aj suveníri a v bufete bola príjemná obsluha. Celkovo hodnotím veľmi dobre. Po ceste je aj wc ( prvá kaplnka z pravej strany ). Dostanete na infe aj mapku kde je všetko znázornené.

(Translated by Google) The largest and one of the most beautiful Calvary in the Carpathian Basin. It has been beautifully renovated in recent years, a reception building and a parking lot have been built. But those who don't want to pay can park a little further away for free. This place is very beautiful, if someone is not religious, then it is worth climbing just for the scenery. But it gives us more than that. It is a great pleasure that they left the Hungarian subtitles on the stations. YouTube/tiktok:Sala Adventure (Original) A Kárpát medence legnagyobb,s egyben egyik legszebb Kálváriája.

(Translated by Google) Nice view, restored. Pleasant approach and knowledge of the guide. I recommend visiting this place Small minus for the sidewalks, better to have good shoes (Original) Pekná vyhliadka , zreštaurovane . Príjemný prístup a znalosti sprievodcu.

Interesting castle. The inner keep was originally a (large) church. Nice views over the town. Lots of steep stairs if you want to see everything.

The old castle boasts really great views of the city, but it does not give you access to them. The tower with the Gothic staircase leads you up only to a closed tower with no viewing platform. The inside of the castle is largely empty, although you can walk the ramparts. Overall, it is overpriced for what you are getting. They should spend more money on the main clock tower itself and allow visitors to go up. Inside, the expositions should have larger explanations as the ones near the statues were too small to read.

One of the most interesting castles I've visited here in Slovakia. Amongst the many things to see within the castle grounds, it houses an exhibition of the famous Zachar Karol clay pipe making workshop, there is a breath taking series of altar paintings/sculptures of the way of the cross, and a beautiful bell tower you can climb. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. The castle is only open once every two hours for visitors, and tickets are available for purchase by cash only.

Small old castle with central church and high walls. Walk the walls and climb to the towers for great views of the city and countryside, and peruse a few demonstrations of the local history and people. Worth the small fee.

Very cool visit! Part of the visit (inside of the former church) is with an interesting commentary from the castle guide. The lady is happy to reply to your questions and offers very thorough background info re the castle, its history, the town itself and also re the history of Kalvaria. You can climb up and walk around the walls and go up to the main tower. There are placed the original paintings on wood from Kalvaria. It worth visiting and seeing them. Wear comfortable shoes as some wooden stairs are very steep and small! Toilettes available

It didn’t feel that safe but I didn’t get hurt and it was very cool it was so old that’s why it was so scary. it’s worth it buying a ticket you should go there.

Nice city, nice monument, nice view

Interesting tour of the mine. Parking is outside via an app or payment meter. €5 for 2 hours or €10 all day. Ticket prices for the museum are €14 per adult. It can be wet inside the mine, so wear footwear that is good on wet, wooden planks....can be slippery. Given an overcoat, helmet and torch before the tour

Free parking, tour takes 70mins, guide gave speech in local language and we had English notes. Nice and cool underground. Above ground limited artefacts to view but very enjoyable. Gift shop and snacks available.

We were just outdoor, but still a worth time we spent there. Kids had fun, there is very good exposition of rocks and minerals. The video for kids is very interesting, however, in slovak only so it has no value for a foreign visitor. Visits to the mines are scheduled every hour.

A bit creepy to be under ground in a place that's dark and dripping and where walking is a bit awkward because of the old mine tracks under your feet. But really well managed, with helmets and raincoats to protect you from too much damage. Unfortunately the tour was only in Slovak but the written English explanation helped. And the extra guide who speaks enough good English to explain what we asked. Great experience!

Nice experience for adults and kids too. Reasonably staffed (helphull ladies at shop/coffee). Wide exterior/ground exposition and intresting mine/undergroud area. Could do with coat exchange (ones you get to protect your clothes)as some are worn down.

Fun experience. But if you are a non Slovak speaker, you will need to pay an extra €20 for an English tour guide, which is I didn't do. But go inside the tunnel is still fun to do.

One of the stop of the tour train. Take this little red train hop on hop off to watch around the old town, joyful to be bumped up and down all the way. The highlight in the town is to visit the ancient underground mine. Different from the salt mines in Poland and Austria, due to the volcanic eruption, the metal mines here are rich in gold, silver and copper, and are narrow, dark and humid. There are running water on both sides of the trail, and sleeping upside-down bats can be seen in the cave, close at hand. There are 14 levels in total, the top two levels are open for visitors, 50 meters deep, 8-9 degrees Celsius, equipped with helmet searchlights, and the whole journey takes 90-100 minutes to walk.

In overal positive experience for a visit with kids. Staff on the entrance was friendly and answered all our questions. You can find several activities for kinds on the path, small playground, shops with souvenirs were closed. There are educative boards along the path but you can't enter the cave which was a big disappointment. You are done in 1-1,5 hour. In overal the price is higher for such an experience.

Very expensive and small place

Very informative signs, in English. Good for kids to practice being cavemen throwing sticks, pine cones and rings along the route.

Waited for 50 min with a lot of people and no one came to open up. 0/10 and the mosquito bites were not worth it💀

There is no access to the cave, and not so much to see. It is good for children. Price is so high.

Well, on website is written : be there at 20 00pm. We have been there but nobody shows. I guess it is closed od nobody cares cares anymore.

much more fun than expected. and I recommend doing it barefoot us they suggest :)

2 adults and 3 kids, 34€. Very bad signage, we didn't know where to go from the car park, more signs would definitely help. Just follow the stalls. Stalls with souvenirs and toys were expensive. Zoo was nice, good selection of animals, kids enjoyed it. Very bad attitude from the staff at the bouncy castle. Service not great.

We visited the National Zoo Bojnice in 2021. The collection of other nearby attractions (including the castle, restaurant) made it feel connected like a theme park. There were stalls outside the castle, some where you could pay a fee to hold birds of prey. We paid 10€ for adult entry and 5€ for child entry. The zoo was originally a private collection of animals on the castle estate but since becoming public in 1949 has become one of the most visited zoos in Slovakia. It has all the expected facilities; foods and refreshments, toilets, baby changing area, gift shop, playground and picnic areas. The visitor route mostly looks outward on the enclosures, which means happily less walking and the animals have larger enclosures.

Awesome zoo, they have got plenty of animals that I have never ever seen before ranging from birds that almost look like dinasaurs to birds from the angry birds game, fish from Finding Nemo, various turtle-fish hybrids. You can also see apes trying to use tools here and I was finally able to see a wild wolf here. Very much worth a visit!

Nice Zoo to visit with family, child or with friends. In comparison with Bratislava Zoo smaller. Situated in a beautiful place.

Nice walk with family, anyway during our visits many animals were not avialable. Anyway we liked it

Mid-sized zoo, which we have enjoyed. Unfortunately we were not able to see some of the animals like elephant, gorilla (maybe there is no gorilla in this zoo) and chimpanzee. I recommend to visit the zoo in early hours during hot summer, otherwise you won't be able to see some of the animals as they might be hidden inside. There is a bistro with some fast food. Also you can find there a coffe and ice cream stands.

The Zoo is worth visiting. It is quite big and landscape around it is very beautiful. Also you have a great view on the famous Bojnice castle. We especially liked the new housing of the elephant's.

Beautiful castle, but the visiting experience was disappointing. There’s only one English tour per day, right in the middle of the day, which is very limiting. We had to join the Slovak tour and got printed information in English. The tour was rushed, expensive, and we barely had time to enjoy the rooms. It really feels like something that could be done independently with an audio guide. For the price, I expected a slower, more detailed experience. I still think it’s worth coming to the area. The gardens around the castle are beautiful, and the atmosphere with the castle in the background is really lovely.

Unfortunately the beauty of the castle is ruined by the poor organization of the guided tours. The guide was extremely rude(Lenka) as she threatened that she is locking the door if we do not exit when we were literally just for 2 mins in the Grand Hall. As I mentioned the castle was very beautiful and well maintained but just that. You can see attached in the last picture how crowded it gets and we were told that it was not even a full group

It is worth visiting. I pre-booked an English guided tour to the interiors (only one English tour per day at 1315). It took one hour 15 minutes & we visited many rooms, from the top floor to the basement cave, in 2 towers. The Interior is very antigue & authentic, wood is mainly used, nothing extra lavish & glittering. The Exterior of the castle is awesome. Plenty of gardens to stroll around, Bojnice town itself is also pleasant. But the train trip from Bratislava took over 3 hours, with transfer in Trnava & Luzianky, including a funny bus trip, probably due to rail maintenance work, from Hlohovec to Luzianky, & finally walk 50 mins from Prievidza to the castle. Train trip costs €8 one way. Very nice public transport exercise & day trip.

One of the best castles in Europe I have ever visited. Around 2.5 hour drive from Bratislava so a day trip is enough. The castle is so beautiful both from the outside and inside. The outside looks like a Disney castle. And the interiors and decoration inside the building are extremely wonderful. There’s also a guided tour available which costs 16 euros for an adult but only one English tour available per day at 13:15. The tour is about 1.5 hours long and even though I didn’t understand anything from the Slovakian guide, I still think it’s worth it to go inside the castle. Highly recommend.

Our family was delighted with the views of the Bojnice Castle and its surroundings as well as we enjoyed the guided castle and cave tour. Our English guide told not only historical facts about the castle but also said some interesting facts as well as included some legends related to the castle. The expositions inside are interesting and worth visiting. You should check the times of English guided tours - there were just 2 of them on our visit day, the other tours were in Slovak. At the foot of the castle there is a park, souvenir shops, some eating places and the Bojnice Zoo.

Beautiful castle from the outside. The inside tour is ok, but wasn't completely worth its €16 per person in our eyes. You cannot visit on your own, but have to go with a guided tour, while the guide only speaks Slovak.we did get a small brochure in English, but it's not always clear what part they are talking about. The group was also very big, so that sometimes not everyone could enter the room the guide was speaking in. All in all not bad, but too pricey for what it was.

A beautiful old castle which was part of the Hungarian Kingdom in the past until early XX c. Unfortunately, there is no word written about the historical link to Hungary. Though, worth to see. There is a lunch break at the entrance 12 to 12:30pm :O The woman at the ticket office was very impolite when she was checking who can have senior tickets in our tourist group.

Large spacious outdoor botanical garden. We came early beginning autumn. Must be seen; enormous diversity of trees from around of world. Some 3-4 hours needed to book just for walking through the garden. Definitely we visit again; maybe lately in spring time. Note there is no refreshment service inside. Also be aware navigating inside the garden is not so clever; we were lost several times; so next time we prepare routes itinerary in advance.

I would describe this place as an old garden. It is extensive and full of diferent types of flora and neverending walks. However, I have expected this place to be more maintained. Most of the garden have been full of bushes outgrowing into the walks and in the views of other special plants. Poor marking od the plants, which you are not able to read from the distance. Worst thing about this place are navigation boards. We have got lost multiple times, and Google maps, did not helped. Castle itself looked well taken care off, from the outside. Overall, we had 3 hours of nice walk through the gardens.

Very nice arboretum, lots of interesting trees. You could spend hours and hours walking around. And the silence and peace... What I was a little sad about was the chaos, the plants could be further apart to make them more clear, the paths could be better marked. This place has a lot of potential just use it 🙂

This is a hidden gem, unfortunately despite all its beauty it has there are some minuses as well. Missing some restaurant or caffeterrie, garden needs to get some upgrade of pavements and etc Despite all of this, this is a huge park split to several sections based on geography. Asian gardens, american gardens and etc. Beautiful views and nice nature here. Chateau needs reconstruction for sure. Still place worth to visit and enjoy.

Nature, plants, freshness, a variety of smells, silence, cozy benches, lots of paths, beauty..... very comfortable, calm... rest for the body and pleasure for the soul

Very lovely, larg, peacefull park. Maps of park are on every corner.

You will find many kinds of trees 🌲 it is very beautiful place to be in 🙂 if you want to know something more about it while you are there, there is someone 🚶who can help you but I don't if you need to pay money 💰 for that, but otherwise it nice place also for children 👪 to see the nature 🏞 of many places around the world 🗺 in one place

Long walk up a steep hill, historical and that's it. €1 gets you a photo opportunity of the entire city and a look in a quite lovely cathedral. All done in 30 minutes easy.

This looks like a castle, but it is more of a history of bishops and some very old artifacts! We loved the museum as there were items dating back to the 800's! I have never seen items this old before. We can't take pictures, so you need to visit if you like church history

Stunning place full of history, beautiful views, very well maintained by. The museum is outstanding - remains of the first Slavic bishop activity.

We just walked around the outside. Impressive wall. Parked at the free parking near the stadium. Very busy. Lovely park next door for a picnic. Free toilets!

Nitra Castle is a stunning place! Beautiful architecture, lots to see. Highly recommended!

Nitra Castle is a lovely and peaceful place to visit. Set on a hill above the town, it offers beautiful views and a calm, relaxing atmosphere. The area around the castle is surprisingly green and well-maintained, making it perfect for a quiet walk or some time to unwind. The historic architecture adds a special charm, and it’s easy to feel the centuries of history in the air. It’s not overcrowded, which makes the visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for those looking for a peaceful and scenic spot in Nitra.

Well maintained, great views of the city, nice museum. Nice cafe

Beautiful castle, excellent guide. We were lucky and there was also a puppet show for the little ones in the castle. I recommend visiting this castle. It is only 120 steps to the dragon guarding the castle well.

A charming castle 🏰with a long history, it was accompanied by a speaking guide who knew the castle very well. From there are beautiful ❤️ views.

The people working here were so kind they rushed over to unlock all the doors inside the castle (we were the only ones on a rainy day) and were very informative! Highly recommend

Great experience. Suitable for families also. Interactivity everywhere, easy to learn and understand. Totally reccomend it. Take at least 1.5h

An easily accessible location — probably offers more activities on weekends. Around noon on Tuesday, there wasn’t much going on, but the castle and other sights are definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful castle of great historical importance. It is being rebuilt and is interesting because of its many layers.

As a travel guide I know the place quite well. It's a beautiful and impressive castle with interesting stories. walking up is easier than it seems, and in the summer they have nice shows there. Pity that it's not lightened up at night, my group and i were somewhat disappointed. Yet managed to take a few pics.

I finally found Gargamel's house. He must have gone into the forest to look for the Smurfs, but I had brought cat food for his cat. By the way, dont go to this church in the evening or at night; bears livings near forest, and you could become their meal on the way back. İ am not joking.

The oldest church in Central Eastern Europe. 900 AC. A sight to behold, a place to visit.

Lovely place.. Sad we can visit inside

Very nice, nice view and nature

Amazing

Best

(Translated by Google) Very nice place with a beautiful view. You can't get inside. From here you can see the Nitra Castle and Zobor well. It's quiet there, there aren't many tourists, so you can enjoy it without crowds. There is also a small cave nearby, although it's only a few meters long, but it's still interesting that something like this was created there ⛪️ (Original) Veľmi pekné miesto s krásnym výhľadom. Do vnútra sa nedá dostať. Odtiaľto je dobre vidieť na Nitriansky hrad aj Zobor. Je tam pokoj, turistov nebýva veľa, takže si to človek môže vychutnať bez davov. Neďaleko sa nachádza aj malá jaskyňa, síce má len pár metrov, ale aj tak je to zaujímavé, že tam niečo také vzniklo ⛪️

For 70 euros, you can swim in three pools, use three different saunas, and that’s it. It’s absolutely not worth the price. If you have the chance, go to Hungary instead of this characterless spa. Even the cheap 10 euros option in Hungary is better than this.

it is nice for sure, but the biggest thermal bath in the world is in Germany and it only costs 1€ more. This one would be a mediocre one in Germany. Definitely not worth 70€ entrence. Only one traditional Sauna, not a big variety sadly.

Clean pools and facilities, staff were friendly and helpful, but not worth €70 given the limited pools available. Likely given the cost, I had most of the pools to myself most of the time, which was a plus.

Spa Irma is absolutely amazing. It was my first visit and I absolutely felt royal. The interior is so beautiful. You can have a cup of coffee, beer or any food or drink you like on their menu. They have a sitting place outside as well as inside. The gardens outside are absolutely beautiful.

Good spa experience. We had the mirror pool, mud pool and wrap. Reasonably priced at 30€.

Amazing facilities with great staff

The poorest quality of service and I been to many spas. Also expensive

Very nice castle, good lector with humor. For families with children you can use local turist train. Nice view of the valley. I appreciate this nice places in Slovakia.

calm and well preserved castle ruin with affordable entrance fee (4€/5€, cash/card), nice views to the country side, nice spots for relaxing and enjoying the views, parking 30 minutes from the castle, souvenir shop/refreshment next to the entrance

Parking 3 euros which is ok, you also get a tour guide in english and a small magnet. From there, it is 15-20 min easy uphill walk. Entrance to castle is 5 euros per person on weekends, which is not really worth it. There are simmilar castles nerby where admission is free. Either way, not too bad, just there are better experiences in the area.

This is the castle of the famous Countess Elizabeth Bathory, meaning that it has fascinating and macabre history. It is worth visiting for that fact alone. Other than that, most of the castle is in ruins, however some renovation has been carried out in recent years. Still, a lot more could be done to restore the castle in its former glory (I hope that they would do that one day). It is a short hike uphill from the parking and once you’re there, the castle offers splendid vistas all around.

Calm, beautiful, though castle not much left but intresting history.

Amazing. I really loved it. And the surroundings are just breathtaking.

Beautiful medieval castle ruins with some exhibition as well. The walk up is not so hard and can be easily managed by anyone who can walk for 20 or so minutes up the not-so-steep hill. Enjoyed the views as well, there is number of spots where you can take some really nice portraits. They take a good care of the place, renovating one step at a time, and can use any money you can spare to make this piece of history nicer and nicer. They serve refreshments here as well, which is a nice bonus. You need to bring cash though 💶 Recommend, definitely will visit again :)

Very nice place so big compared here in pezinok

Regular shopping centre. It has everything I need and it's getting better over time. I think it's the best in Trnava

Clean and modern shopping centre. Very centrally located. 10 minutes walk from bus and train station. Good air-conditioning and music is not too loud.

Big selection of shops for everyone, there is also a food court with restaurants, you can find claw machines that you put tokens into and you can grab a plushie or there are some arcade games.

Good shopping mall in the centre of the city with convenient 2-levels parking. There are main mobile operators and banks in the mall

Beautiful City Arena shopping center with football stadium for 20 thousand spectators. If you are around Trnava must visit this place!

Stadium is not big but when it's full atmosphere is good and you are never too far from the pitch. Furthermore is in walking distance from city center.

Amazing experience. Great atmosphere in very nice and unusuall place. Interior is beautiful with many nice details. You can sit in own separate part or big open space. Staff was kind and smiling all the time with good recommandations. We tried coffee, lemonades and sweets there and we loved it all. Apart from coffee prices are little bit higher. To make it short: great location, interior, service, sweets and coffee make it very pleasent experience and "must visit" in the city. Worth every cent. It is simply great experience

Unbelievable atmosphere in this former synagogue. As well as nice stuff and their offer on a very good quality level. Opens until night.

1.50e for nothing. Free entrance might be better cause it's anything at all inside.

Really atmospheric and staff were friendly. They could have done more with it though.

Do you have an E Mail Address?

Nice place

Super

Imposing church in baroque style. The interior is absolutely stunning

Very beautiful.

The cathedral doesn't appear to be so special on the outside. The inside however is all splendor: ceilings are fantastic, baroque stuc and decorations are a feast for the eye. Absolutely worth while!

Amazing, nadherna...

Super pretty, but shame on them for keeping it closed on Saturday morning!

The most beautiful cathedral in Trnava, very well maintained and beautiful to see.We were very impressed.

Very beautiful church. Its altar from the year 1600 is protected by UNESCO.

Very nice place. However, during our visit, too many amenities weren't available (swimming pool, kid's pool, outdoor tobogans, "diving pool". Understandable, as it wasn't full season, but shouldn't be charging full price, or, at least, should inform visitors about it.

We visited this place on the weekend. In winter, two outdoor swimming pools are in operation - a children's pool and another pool. While it's a great place to visit in winter, it's also a really nice place in summer.

We had a little problem to find a locker because there was a lot of people and I was a bit disappointed that you have to pay extra for the slides but otherwise the overall experience was nice. We will most likely visit again in the future.

It's always amazing spending a day in this thermal park. Over the years they have added different pools with all sorts of entertainment. Prices are very similar to all other thermal parks around Slovakia.

It's not the first time I visited this venue and unfortunately, I have to say that my experience was often quite disappointing. The staff was generally unpleasant and seemed annoyed by the need to serve guests. The facilities themselves were also lacking. Although several pools were open during the off-season, there were too many people and not enough attractions available. To make matters worse, the pools were not particularly clean and the attractions (such as bubbles and jets) only ran for short periods of time before shutting down for extended breaks. Additionally, the venue had a multitude of rules and restrictions that were often unclear or questionable. It was difficult to navigate the facility, especially for those with mobility issues, as there were thresholds everywhere and limited signage in languages other than Hungarian and Slovak. Overall, while the venue may be relatively inexpensive and conveniently located between Budapest and Vienna, I cannot recommend it due to its poor service and lackluster facilities.

We were really excited to go here but then found out that the slides are only open at the weekend, the indoor pools were closed for renovation, the indoor slides were out of bounds, the lazy river wasn’t running and the wave machine only runs every 2 hours, (great when you get a 3hr ticket) and the indoor children’s pool play area wasn’t functioning. We were told none of this when we paid at the till. Very disappointing and definitely don’t recommend the place. I understand that general maintenance / safety is important but we should have been warned when we paid or had the entry price reduced.

Fun for all the family, if you want to relax and unwind you can, if you want to be active you can and somewhere in between, good choice of food and drink outlets that won't break the bank. Should be even better when the new pools are finished early 2019. 👍👍👍👍

Danubiana is truly a gem just outside Bratislava—a museum of international class, but on a more intimate and accessible scale. What really stood out was the strong focus on local and regional artists, which gave the visit a real sense of place and identity. The mix of permanent and changing exhibitions keeps things fresh and engaging. The location is stunning—situated on a narrow peninsula (almost like an island!) surrounded by the Danube, with views of the river in full force. Don’t miss the sculpture park outside or the rooftop terrace, both perfect for a peaceful stroll and great photo opportunities. The café is another highlight. It’s a lovely spot to relax, with outdoor seating that lets you enjoy the scenery while taking a break. This was our first visit, but definitely not the last. Highly recommended for art lovers, nature lovers—or anyone looking for a special experience just a short drive from the city.

This place is so awesome. Feels otherworldly. A must see, but reserve a few hours at least. Surrounded by water, art and beautiful spaces everywhere. Go see for yourself.

It was a truly amazing experience. The artwork is fascinating, and the place itself is stunning. It overlooks either a river or a lake—I’m not sure which—but the view is absolutely charming.

A one of kind museum in the middle of the Danube river. It was a bit far from the city but it's worth a trip, you can spend 1-2 hours here but I would recommend to go there on sunny days as a huge part of the artworks are outside in the gardens or on the rooftop. I didn't like all the temporary exhibition but they were mainly good. Best part was the photography exhibition by Rancinan. The café inside the museum was lovely.

It is a very nice museum! For lovers of modern art and finding artists from Slovakia and other surrounding countries, this is a must in Bratislava! It is easily accessible by bus from the centre of the city (departing from Nové SND, 2 zones), and it is situated in a very beautiful place! Personally, I thought that it needed more female artists, but the pieces being displayed are very dynamic and stunning! The staff is very kind, there's also free water, portable folding chairs and a nice outside area to roam and catch some sunlight. The café is nice, and it is very well decorated! The WC is very clean and functional. The only downside is the museum shop, which doesn't contain much from the museum itself. It definitely needed more postcards with pieces being displayed and other merchandise from the exhibitions. Definitely worth a visit!!

Amazing location and the curated art pieces are excellent. Very good visit.

An unusual art museum, which is distinguished by its location, its originality, its concept... will be especially interesting to everyone who follows the trends of contemporary art. Very beautiful, modern, interesting... The museum has a very tasty cafe. Parking is free for museum visitors. Entrance costs 10 euros

Impressive Baroque monument in the city center. A beautiful reminder of the city’s history, worth a quick stop while exploring the old town.

Every square has a monument. This one, the Holy Trinity Column, is impressive, It commemorates the end of the plague. At the base, there are skulls in the little cupola. In the plague, 4,000 people died at the time, which was about 15% of the city's population.

The old city is beautiful and every place can tell the history .

Beautiful sculpture at the starting point of the Old Town.

Nice sculpture to mark the beginning of our day trip and walking tour of Bratislava.

We were here during thanksgiving, it felt warm, cozy and welcoming. Great atmosphere and people all around. Wonderful representation of Bratislava.

The Holy Trinity Column is a religious column dedicated to the Christian Holy Trinity, a popular subject and theme for a monument in Czech Republic and Slovakia for celebrating the end of the Plague. Every city in this region seems to have one and Bratislava is no exception. The depiction of the Trinity is fairly standard, with a central column topped with the Holy Trinity. At the base of the column are sculptures of saints, the one unusual thing is that there are two two more sculptures of saints separate from the central column. There’s also a low wall enclosing the column The column can be found on the western edge of Bratislava Old Town, close to the end of Hviezdoslavovo Square. Take a look if in the area, but I wouldn’t go out of the way to see it.
