Park Inn by Radisson Danube Bratislava
Check in was smooth, rooms spacious and clean. The spa was lovely to relax after a day of walking and breakfast was good. Ideal location steps away from the old town and the tram/bus stop. The only criticism I have is that the pillows are thin as pancakes.

AC Hotel by Marriott Bratislava Old Town
The hotel was lovely, as were the staff. The breakfast was also great with a lot of choice. Air conditioning would’ve been good though because the room was warm. But not on until April. However, we enjoyed our stay very much. Thank you
