Driving – Little hectic but generally courteous. Good road system.

Grassalkovich Palace, Bratislava

Places Of Interest/Attractions - One of the most prominent structures in the city is Bratislava Castle along with the Grassalkovich Palace or the Presidential Palace. Most historical buildings of which there are many, are concentrated in the Old Town. Bratislava also has some beautiful parks and lakes.

Other Remarks - The city itself is quite an impressive sight at night and a lot of work is being done to make it attractive. Also the filled baguettes at the airport arrival cafe are very, good. For taxis it is best to arrange one beforehand through DA.SK as the ones at the airport tend to charge a fortune. Also there are many small taxi cards at hotels, so pick one up and call one or get the hotel to book one for you. The ones on the street can be overpriced.
