Please note that there is no longer free breakfast here! Apparently hostels.com hasn\'t removed it yet. Very helpful staff, giving you the lowdown on Bratislava when you check-in. The garden restaurant/bar is fabulous. It\'s the closest hostel to the train station, but rather far from the boat terminal. It\'s a nice 10-15 min walk to the old town center.

First of all the hostel is very easy to find whether you are comming from airport bus station or train station. I was welcomed by Aja after she checked me in she gave me good description of city and places I wanted to see. The hostel was nice and clean and had family atmosphere. In the basement they had a bar designed in Hostel movie theme which was pretty cool. It was close to the old town. If you want to have the best time in Bratislava try Hostel Possonium

This hostel is just perfect! From the first moment you feel very welcome since the staff is awesome. They have cool garden bar with drinks and even food and another bar in basement for parties and watching live sports. Together with clean and well-equipped rooms and perfect location it is one of the best hostels I have ever visited. 100% recommended!

very very close to the train station. a bit far from the main attraction sites by walking... but it's not the hostel's fault :). staff was really nice and willing to talk. cool interior design!

Nice to see that you´ve liked your hostel. But come on - it´s really not so far and plus it is a very nice walk into the old town. And for those who are too tired there are buses aswell :)

Friendly staff, good facilities including free washing, well-equipped kitchen, and bar and patio. There was only one other person staying there when I was, so I can't comment on noise, but I imagine a room on the patio would be loud if people were drinking.

Highly recommend this place, they have two bars! One is in the garden where you can also make your own barbecue. After was a really good party in the basement bar. I didn't see the city much because I was all the time at the hostel :) Also they have nice and clean rooms. See you soon guys :)

Friendliest staff!!! They can really help you with anything you need. Bar just below (little oud if your looking for somewhere quiet) but otherwise excellent atmosphere with plenty of access to computers. (if your intown, take a trip to the circus on a quiet night!)

I think the price of the hostel was slightly expensive for what was included, but the place was nice and everything you needed was there. The facilities were good and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The hostel was well located close to the bus and train station, and only about a 10/15 minute walk into the old town. However, the room did seem to have a strange smell, I don't know if perhaps there was a damp problem or something. Either way, Bratislava was just amazing!

To keep real all the good things in our hostel, we just can´t go cheaper. From time to time something goes broken, of course, like everywhere. Now the problem with the damp is solved... Anyway, thank you for your review. Would be nice to see you again.

Of course we have soap in the bathrooms, it was just probably all gone. If you would ask for it, the receptionist would refill the fluid container...

Very nice little hostel, great staff and a nice bar down stairs. Ask the receptionist to sing you a song on his guitar.

Excellent staff, great bar where you can meet other travelers from hostel, nice rooms decorated in style of states my was Brazil, and perfect location for me because is really close(about 5 minutes by walk) from main train station. They have there also a nice garden with bar, which have too be cool in summer. I definitely come back, thank gays :)
