The Pension Gremium is a tiny five-room pension located two floors above the Gremium Restaurant and Bar. It's in the heart of Staré Mesto and thus a fine option for visitors whose primary objective is to find a centrally-located place to crash.
Renovated quarters are all decorated simply, but in modern, colorful tones. En suite bathrooms are tidy, and all rooms have cable TV, Wi-Fi and mini bars.
Unexpected perks include free wireless Internet access and the aforementioned fab Staré Mesto location. (The pension is a bit of a trek from the train station, however.) Another upside is the pleasing sense that you're occupying a little secret corner of the city, unknown to most. The Gremium's rooms are also quite large—there's none of the cramped feel of some of Bratislava's other budget hotels.
The Gremium bar appears to be a sports bar above all else. When we visited, it was abuzz with pre-match jitters and football fan energy. The sweet receptionist flatly maintained that the bar usually closes by midnight. We're inclined to believe her.
Breakfast is available for an additional €5.

0.5km to city centerStaré Mesto is the hub of charming, old Bratislava. It's a knot of winding alleys, charming Medieval, Baroque, Gothic, and Neo-Renaissance imprints, and inviting cafes and bars. There are a few architectural injections of modernity in Staré Mesto, though these are the exception to the rule. For those familiar with Vienna, Bratislava's Staré Mesto can feel like a miniature variation on a Habsburg theme. Staré Mesto's architectural highlights include the Neo-Renaissance Slovak National Theatre, the Romanesque-Gothic St. Martin's Cathedral, and Michael's Gate, the city's medieval gateway.
The legions of weekend break tourists lured to Bratislava by the city's increasing buzz spend most of their time in Staré Mesto and the adjacent Hrad (Castle) district. Happily for locals and visitors alike, Staré Mesto is full of hip bars, cool cafes, and folksy restaurants. The downside to this buzz: During high season, this neighborhood's warrenlike alleyways can get quite crowded.
