Hotel Antares is the best-looking small hotel in Bratislava, appropriate in scale and coziness to count as a true boutique hotel.
Were it not for the relatively diminutive sign in the front, you might be forgiven for thinking that this 16-room hotel was just another conventional but pleasing modern villa. The 'hood, after all, would be fitting for such a manse. Surrounded by embassies and diplomatic residences in the lush hills behind Bratislava's castle, the neighborhood is precisely the sort of place where Slovakia's well-heeled lovers of modernism would build their smart villas.
The well-lit reception has beige walls and polished stone floors. The rooms don't quite live up to the swank, modern feel of the reception. We were hoping for streamlined simplicity. Instead, we got rust-colored carpets, chocolate-brown bed units, and patterned rug-like blankets. Not unappealing, mind you, but not quite the modernist magic we anticipated. Desk units are nicely configured, if small. The leather desk chairs have wheels, and the bathrooms have a lovely brand-new, well-scrubbed feel, with gleaming white and silver tiles.
As one might expect, business travelers tend to be the most common guests here, and it's easy to see what lures them in. Unlike many of Bratislava's business-class hotels, with their unimaginative furnishings and worn surroundings, Antares offers its guests some boutique style and a helpful staff. The pretty breakfast garden is a major plus too.

About the Antares neighborhood
Hrad & Around covers a significant chunk of Bratislava, from the area immediately around Bratislava's Castle to the long promenade along the Danube west of Starometská and continuing on into the stately hilly neighborhoods north and west of the castle. The area immediately around the castle is dotted with museums and twisting hillside alleys. Like many massive European castles, Bratislava's Hrad has been fortified and rebuilt in a range of architectural styles. Surprisingly, the current castle, towering over the city, was rebuilt in the 1950s. The district northwest of the Hrad is a pleasant, hilly area dotted with impressive Baroque and modernist villas. This area is home to plenty of embassies and diplomats' quarters. Some hotels listed in Hrad & Around are just outside of Staré Mesto, while others are quite a hike from the action.
