Bratislava castle is really worth a visit. There are some lovely gardens to have a walk around and many interesting exhibitions on the inside. The main exhibitions talk about the recent history of the country and how Slovakia arrived at its current state. There are also a few rooms that talk about history from further back, as well as about the history of the castle. Once inside, you can miss the beautiful staircase that leads into the different rooms.

Walked up to the castle and steep climb up cobble street and the steep stairs.Lots of space around it to roam and an eating place as well.Lots of entrances around the castle which you need to explore to find the correct way in [you buy a ticket to get inside].On one side there is a road very close which means you can get transport up if not fit to climb[ or lazy].Lovely view from the front of the castle overlooking the city.

The Bratislava Castle is an imposing structure that sits on a hill high above the city. It has a history going back hundreds of years, but has been renovated and rebuilt over and over. The latest reconstruction was in the 1950s and 1960s and although the reconstruction follows some of the historical characteristics, it is also a mix of styles from different eras.

This is one castle that you cannot miss. The castle is white with a red roof and sits perched on a hill overlooking the old town and the Danube River. Because of its size and location, it has been the main attraction and symbol of the country. You have to walk up a steep path to get to the castle. We were very disappointed on our tour with Viking that all we got to see was the courtyard. They did not give us time to do anything else. The castle is a huge rectangular shaped building with four corner towers. The castle was in ruins after a fire in 1811. It continued to decline until 1957 when restoration began, some parts were only completed as recently as 2000. There is a lot to see here: Castle building (The Palace), Entrance gates (Sigismund Gate in the southeast – the best preserved original part of the site, built in the 15th century; Vienna Gate in the southwest – built in 1712; Nicholas Gate in the northeast – built in the 16th century and Leopold Gate) and some other buildings.. It still houses a museum and the presentation rooms for the National Council of the Slovak Republic and for the president. A new baroque garden behind the castle was opened in June 2016 and entry is free of charge. You will be treated to exceptional views of the city and the Danube.

The castle is beautiful to look at for sure and it has a strong history, however I felt there wasn't much going on inside. There were some nice exhibit pieces, but not as much as I expected. Hard to spend alot of time inside, however It's definitely worth a visit and you get great views in all directions over the city.

Very nice building to look at, nice area around but not enough to see inside. I would say--nothing. A visit to the castle requires a lot of walking but does not give satisfaction. Would be better just to take photos of the impressive building without wasting time and money to get in.

Don’t expect a Medieval castle inside. The modern renovation and displays are more like a museum. The pictorial history is the main focus and is alleviated somewhat by some ecclesiastical art as well as a room of 20th century Slovakian paintings. The entry is inexpensive, but perhaps just enjoy walking around the gardens and castle walls.

It is a steep walk up to the Castle but a great view when you get there. Entry to the grounds is via an old courtyard with a restaurant. The castle is very well maintained and the gardens offer a pleasant walk. I didn't go inside the castle although there was a light and airy gallery showing modern art which was free to access and offered free toilet facilities!

The castle is perched on a hilltop next to the old town, so you’re staying in the city centre you can’t really miss it. We didn’t go in the museum but the castle itself is impressive and you can get great views of the Danube from the castle grounds. It took us around 20 mins to walk up from the old town, so not too taxing. Definitely something to tick off if you’re visiting Bratislava. Whilst it’s a nice attraction, it’s not quite as grand as some of the other castles I’ve visited in Europe and so doesn’t quite warrant 5 stars.

I didn't find to much substance to the castle and was not overly impressed with it. Yes, its nice to view from in the old town and other view points around but that was about it for me. The courtyard at the front was good and then trying to find the ticket office and something decent to see, I didn't rate it. Got some nice photos but that was about it for me.
