Top 10 Matysak Hotels

This is truly a grand historical hotel almost on the scale of great hotels like the Plaza in New York and the Savoy in Paris, but for 1/10 the price. Great service and wonderful breakfast buffet. The best location with 95% of the restaurants and sights within a few blocks walking distance. If you can stay in the same rooms as Franz Liszt, Johannes Brahms, Arthur Rubinstein, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Thomas Edison and Albert Einstein, why would you stay anywhere else in Bratislava.

amazing in all aspects. our suite was perfect . while all staff are great, I must give special mention to the laundry staff that meticulously cleans and irons the crisp linens throughout!! Sheets, pillow cases, napkins, the sheets in the spa... Ive never seen such wonderful linens! Breakfast was outstanding variety buffet , with prosecco and fresh beet juice even as a healthy option!. all servers, Natalia, doorman Martin... Viktoria in the splendid spa...made our trip great . STAY HERE!! easy walk to old town

The location of the hotel is very good, very close to the old town. The hotel is just a 5-minute walk from a park, next to the Presidential Palace of Slovakia. The hotel breakfast is very good and very hearty. The hotel has a room that can sleep three people, one of which is a sofa bed. Parking is available in front of the hotel. Very satisfied, will come to live in the future.

The epitome of Boutique hotel. Great location, breakfast buffet is extensive & staff are really friendly, especially front desk staff. Not certain about 5 star though as there’s no swimming pool but there’s a lovely terrace on 2 floor - take stairs or the elevator. It’s an easy walk around the old town and close to the Danube River. Make sure to go to the UFO tower for a 360 view of Bratislava for €9.90. There’s also a standout 5-star international fine dining restaurant. Take the well worth it ‘Panorama Tour’ for €20 & 90 minutes - book via hotel desk. WARNING - TAXI - I caught a taxi from the train station to the hotel & was charged €24, including a €20 train to hotel charge which was a scam. DO NOT take taxi at the train station - it’s actually an easy 10min walk. My fare should have been €3-5. I hope the ‘friendly’ driver rots in … Certainly put a dampener on my trip

The location of the hotel in Bratislava should be the most central location. Downstairs is a big shopping mall, where eating is still good, the price is not expensive and there are many choices, and the breakfast is more general, probably because the western breakfast taste buds have been numb for more than ten days. But Slovakia really has nothing. . . It feels like the most disappointing country in this 10-nation tour. If it wasn't because it was too tiring to drive directly from Prague to Budapest, I do n’t think I would live here

Owing to a very busy schedule,I have been too many days delayed in writing this: absolutely the only negative comment I can make about the Falkensteiner is the inadequate bedding- two small single duvets are inappropriate for a double or king bed.A normal sheet ( there is no need for any form of quilt in summer) is required. Otherwise ,I cannot criticise- there was even an actual bath in the bathroom.The room was cool,quiet and well furnished.The coffee machine was adequate for making tea,and the fridge worked The location was ideal for a castle visit,and the old town was easily reached via an only slightly unpleasant underpass.

It's a decent hotel for business trips and is walkable distance (weather permitting) to the business districts. The old town is a short stroll away and the Castle is a 20 min walk. There's also a host of restaurants nearby. The rooms and bathrooms are quite spacious - modern and clean with most amenities like iron/hair dryer/locker and coffee machines. There is a gym as well but it's limited to one machine and a couple of treadmills - which is reasonable for when travelling. The breakfast was disappointing - no fresh hot beverages ( there is a coffee machine in place) or omelettes and just cereals and bread/pastries if you're a vegetarian. Also, the hotel and location would best suit business travelers and not families with smaller kids given the cobbled streets that are not ideal for buggy pushing. ( And no pool in the hotel)
