Latest Banska Bystrica hotel reviews
Fordcore Says: Summer in Slovakia can be surprisingly hot (over 40 degrees sometimes!) When the heat hits in BB, grab your suit and hit up the water park just outside the centre. It's huge and has multiple pools for all different tastes, including a kiddie pool, and a man-made lake for...
The most noteworthy historical...
bobiko Says: The most noteworthy historical relics are in the castle area - the oldest part of Banská Bystrica. The Church of Assumption of Virgin Mary built in the romanesque style in the 13th century; the most famous chapel by Master Paul of Levoča dedicated to St. Barbora the...
Zmrzlina Says: Isn't this picture gorgeous! It was taken by a member of the Yahoo club, Visiting Slovakia. I asked his permission before using this on my Banska Bystrica page. This view is why I wanted to visit Banska Bystrica. I didn't get to see this view on my trip, though. But, I will...

Tajov Autocamping: Tajov Autocamping
bean Says: 150 slovakian krones a night for 2 persons and a small tent.. Very nicely set in the higher parts of a green valley. Excellent restaurant next to the camping!

bobiko Says: Many good restaurants on the main place. Is nice to visit restaurant called 'U Komediantov', and 'Cerveny rak'.Special atmosphere, very kind staff, excellent taste of food, nice prices. In 'Cerveny rak' you can see and hear very good music entertainment every weekend.
The restaurant on the picture...
matozbb Says: The restaurant on the picture /left is certainly very interesting as it is placed in the 'Butchers´bastion' from the 16th century. The interior in contrary is very modern and the food is good.My favourite though is 'Starobystrická pivnica' with great food, profesional...

bean Says: By Bus, although this takes some patience and adventurous mind. We came from Nitra, had to change once and paid 81 krones per person and 8 krones for our backpack.
Zmrzlina Says: In every city in Slovakia there is a memorial of some sort to the Slovak National Uprising during WW II. I will be writing an entire travelogue about that, but this photo below shows Banska Bystrica's memorial (roundish building in lower left).I have just read a message from...

bean Says: Kremnicke Vrchy and 'Tunel'. A nice walk uphill from the Tajov camping, we reached the ridge of Kremnicke Vrchy (Hills of Kremnica) at a small tunnel, dug for shelter during the Uprise in the second world war. Although the climb is steep, the nice forest gives enough reason...
A nice daytrip to Dobsinska...
bean Says: A nice daytrip to Dobsinska Ladova Jaskyna: the Ice Cave ofDobsinska. Incredible: from 25 degrees outside you enter a cave with ice everywhere (bring a sweater!). A little on the touristic side, but together with a small walk in the neighbourhood and the train trip to and...

matozbb Says: Go 'to the square' - and you will find whatever you want: restaurants, tourist information, galleries, museums, shops, cafees, bars and crowds of people.

bean Says: The lovely inner city. Pretty colored houses in the typical east european style. Note the concrete blocks in the suburbs from sovjet times are now covered with Coca Cola commercials.... times have been changing here!
