I went to Bratislava by train from Vienna. Bratislava has two important stations. The main station "Hlavna Stanica" is located about 2 km north of the Old Town, whereas the other station is situated in the suburb Petrzalka.
Trains from Vienna South Station (Sudbahnhof) to Petrzalka go via Kittsee and trains to the main station go via Marchegg (14 Euro, 2005). Depending on the train the trip takes between 60 and 90 minutes. Since December 2005 the return ticket from Vienna also includes free use of the public transporation in Bratislava.

There are several trains a day between Bratislava and Vienna; some might take longer than other. On my way to Bratislava it was a long trip that look almost 2 hours, the train stopped quite often. On the way back to Vienna is was a faster trip (I think less than 90 minutes). No matter which train you get, you will always stop for some time in Austria/Slovakia border for passport control.

 Weary traveler by Mariajoy
En route the train stopped just outside Bratislava for police to board and check passports - and to tell P to take her feet off the seats! They also boarded on the return journey too.
On the way back, at around 11.30pm we just wanted to sleep but there was a very spoilt child of about 5 years old with a plastic sword and a very loud and annoying voice being doted on by 3 adult relatives who could see we were trying to sleep but made no attempt to shut the horrid child up. I guessed they didn't understand English because me and P were discussing what should be done with the little monster! Leave a Comment

 Train station by Dabs
The train was comfortable and faster than the hydrofoil, the journey taking around an hour.
To get to the Petrzalka station, we took bus 80 from the stop at Staromtska and Zochova (the street that turns into Novy Most), the ticket was good for 10 minutes and cost 14sk ($.75 cents US) and you can buy a ticket from a machine at the bus stop if you have coins, from a tobacco shop if you don't. Make sure you validate your ticket after you get on the bus. Ask someone on the bus to tell you when you get to the train station, you should be able to see it.
Printout the schedules and bring them with you, it might be easier to go to the main station. Leave a Comment

 taxi anyone? by yooperprofLeave a Comment Theme: Train

I went to Bratislava by train for the day from Vienna. There were trains at fairly regular intervals going both ways so catching one on time wasn't much of an issue.
A day return ticket cost me 14 euros and the journey took about an hour if I remember correctly. Trains straight through mostly depart from Wien Sudbanhof and also stop at Wien Summering. I think there are a couple of trains straight through from Westbanhof but they are not as frequent.
My guidebook said you have to walk to town from the train station but that really isnt so. I felt like a walk and in reality it was only about 20mins to the old town from the train station in Bratislava. Head out of the station and down the road in front of you. Take a right and then head left following the main road (Stefanikova). Keep heading down this road past a large palace and you should start to see signs for the old town and the castle. The old town is basically the other side of the major junction in front of the palace. Theme: Train

The station in Bratislava (pictured here) is called Hlavna stanica and it's located on the north side of the city about 20 minutes from the Old Town. If you don't have too many bags, you could walk. Just head up Stefanikova street and look for the taller buildings. Alternatively, you could jump on tram #1, which will take you to town in ten minutes or so.
At the station, there is a small tourist information office where they can give you transportation information or even help arrange a room. Leave a Comment Theme: Train

You can get to Bratislava by train and tickets can be bought in Wien at the Sudbanhof train station. A cheap return ticket will cost you 14 euros and if you don't really need a return ticket like us, you can get a single trip ticket for 13.20 euros. After spending some days or week in Bratislava, you can also get a ticket costing 19:30 euros each to Prague! Theme: Train

Hlavna stanica is one of the main train stations in Bratislava, it is not that far from the city centre and you can easily walk all the way on a sunny day.
It is easy to get to Bratislava by train. I came here from Budapest and left to Vienna. Leave a Comment Theme: Train
