When guests ask us for the easiest way to get from Hotel Gardinn to the centre of Bratislava, this is the route we recommend: from the Bárdošova stop by line 42 to Hodžovo námestie. It is quick, simple and, once you get off, the most beautiful parts of the centre are already within easy walking distance.
When heading into the city, the correct stop is Bárdošova. If you want an easy landmark, you will find the stop right in front of Kramárska Tankovňa. From there, we recommend our guests take line 42 towards Cintorín Vrakuňa.

Hodžovo námestie is an excellent orientation point. From there, the Presidential Palace, Michael’s Gate and the historic centre are all just a pleasant short walk away.
The most convenient option is to buy your ticket directly inside the trolleybus by card using the validator with the contactless payment symbol and the TAPni sa logo. For most guests on this route, a 30-minute ticket for €1.09 is fully sufficient.
If you prefer a paper ticket in advance, you can also buy one from ticket machines at selected stops.

For the return, take line 42 towards Červený most via Kramáre from the Hodžovo námestie stop and get off at Stromová.
In this direction, Stromová is a request stop for the trolleybus, so we recommend pressing the stop button in time. From there, it is only about 1 minute on foot back to the hotel.
If you would rather make the journey even more comfortable, it is usually worth comparing Bolt and Uber.
