A hotel with great view.
Unique Quality: This 3 star hotel comprises of 18 stories, the top 15 including the guests rooms. It gives a mighty view of the town and especially of the castle.
You can use the computers provided in the reception area, for free.
The breakfast is pretty good and varied.
The hotel is a little bit worn but in a charming way.
- Opinion of Price: less expensive than average

Great value and services
We arrived to Bratislava by morning flight, so we came to hotel about 9-10am. We wanted to see the city and were worried about carring our luggage with us, so we asked receptionist to store our luggage. He said, that we could check.in. That was great (it gave us one more day).
We were worried about the rooms and hotel at all because of some bad reviews I´ve read. Hotel is quite old (I think receptionist said it was built in 1973). Lobby was nice (huge), rooms are simply furnished ( 2 beds, TV (but not international channels), bathroom with toilet). Breakfast are from six till ten, it is like in 4-5 star hotel breakfasts. Lobby bar was open till 22:00 (could be longer). But they had beer for 1€. Receptinists are very helpful (knows good places to have fun).
If you are not looking for luxury during stay, this hotel ist place for you. We had twin room for 30€ with breakfast. We got what we paid for. I am looking forward to stay there again.

Soviet Style but really in the city centre
I stayed here for 5 nights. This is a huge building made of 15 floors. It looks a bit old but in the end the service was okay and rooms generally nice. From the hotel you may easily walk to the historical city center and take a walk to Novy Most so that you can take a look at teh Danube.

Communism at it's best
The hotel is all red carpets, smell of cigaretts and dark corners. We liked it because of the kitsch, and because it is authentic. The main drawback was the thin walls. However, the breakfast was superb and the staff friendly. If you are looking for a scandinavian-style place with lots of sunlight and flowers, choose another hotel. But I recommend it to everyone who wants to experience some old communist-feeling.
Unique Quality: 15 floors and superb breakfast.

dated cheap accomodation
entrance is good -if not impressive easy to get to bus 205 we got from
it is very dated- we seemed to have got the lower standard room which meant no tv, no tea making facilities, but we did have an ensuite bathroom with bath.
the place room does need painting and the carpets could do with at least a deep cleaning or ripping out . its a shame considering the good location and the history it has.
breakfast is from 6-10 -there was a lot of business travellers present as well and the mix of people staying here varied from as i said business travellers to young lads on stag weekends. Quite a mix- nonethe less it was not as noisy as you would expect.We were on the 4th floor.there are 15 floors in this hotel
Unique Quality: cheap
good location u can walk anywhere in bratislava from this place
near tesco
breakfast is great buffet style but u have a choice helpyour self from a fry, fruit, yogurt,cereal etc and u can get as much as u can eat !

An old Soviet Union hotel.
Just stayed one night here with my friends. You have a nice look out from the top of the hotel Kyjev. I dont complain on the look inside, but they have not fixed it in many years i guess. This hotel needs some renovation and some new things, furnitures and also curtains. But then it looses it´s soul I think. At least the stuff could improve their English skills.
Unique Quality: The hotel is cheap and very central. It has a nice bar and you can sit here and have a good drink or a cold beer and look at the other guests. Not expensive at all. Very delicious drinks too, but dont drink too many!

If you are any way fussy about your accomodation this hotel is not for you. The lobby and bar are fine and you get a good breakfast but the rooms are far from comfortable.
The rooms are dated and shabby and there was no shower in my room, just a bath with luke warm water.
The TV was just on the floor! There was no table or stand for it and the beds were not comfortable.
On the plus side, it is quite cheap for a hotel and it has a good location close to the old town of Bratislava. Staff were helpful.
If your looking for a cheap bed and a good breakfast you could do worse in Bratislava but you could do a lot better too.

Fawlty Towers eat your heart out!
The Hotel Kyjev is not what you might call modern but it is a fantastic place! A traditional Communist built monster of a hotel, but now ironically attached to an enormous Tesco Superstore and one side of the 20+ floor hotel covered in a massive advert. Sadly this meant that we had no view from our room on the 10th floor!
The lift is temperamental to say the least and despite us pressing the 4th floor button in the lift in fact we were 10 floors up! So god knows where the missing 6 floors were!
The decor in the reception and the rooms is 70's and all the better for not being a themed hotel, but the real McCoy. The food is also some of the best I have ever had at a European hotel. The largest buffet breakfast I have ever seen.
We opted for the "Substandard Room" option (yes thats right!) which was still comfortable but sadly the sheets did not cover the length of the bed, the bathroom ceiling was so low you couldn't stand in the shower, the shower itself was a hose attached to the taps, and the windows seemed to be hanging off!
You could say this hotel is so bad that you have to stay there for the experience! Its actually a welcome break from the boring identikit hotels you always stay in, this is really unique and a must for anyone staying in Bratislava. I imagine it will be refurbished sometime soon and converted to a boring modern hotel so get in quick! If its not refurbished it will probably collapse.
It is also the cheapest city centre hotel and sticks out like a saw thumb so you can easily find your way back again. Its not in a dodgy area and we seemed perfectly safe in the vicinity at night, only 2 minutes walk from the Old Town.
Unique Quality: Unique qualities:
Communist decor,
Lack of daylight in rooms,
Fantastic enormous mammoth buffet breakfast,
Sticks out like a saw thumb,
Exrememly Cheap,
Just unique in every possible way.

The staff were not friendly at all. One lady in particular was quite curt!
The lifts are not as bad as some reports make out but still do have to wait a while.
The rooms walls must be paper thin - you here everything from the room next door. The TV provided is on the floor and is just a little portable with poor picture.
The bathroom was filthy, i was unable to use the shower.
Parts of the wall around the window/vents had fallen off.
Not in a good location - beggars, unsaviory looking charachters and ladies of ill repute all outside/nearby.
However, the breakfast was one of the best in all my travels - very good!
I thought would be alright for one night - and it was - but if you want to stay for more than 1 night or are not happy to "make do", then dont come here.
Unique Quality: Has a nightclub but i never went to see!

cheap accomodation
Hi
travelling to bratislava for a few days in the beginning of febuary. can anyone recommend cheap accomodation close to the centre?
Re: cheap accomodation
Yes, Grosslingova 15, Apt. no. 5 is very central and will cost you just 1,200 Sk per night for an apartment with kitchen. You can book it through the tourist office at the railway station, or the one in the old town, when you get there.
If you can't get an apartment, there is always the centrally located hotel Kyjev at 1,600 Sk per night.
Re: cheap accomodation
the backpackers hostel on panenska street 31 is also good choise- very close to the centre and nice atmosphere... (about 10 min. by walk from the railway station). hotel kyjev (located next to tesco) is a communistic building with not very good service
enjoy bratislava!!!!
