Coming Soon…
We're going gourmet this year: expect our output on where to eat/drink out to increase dramatically (quirky places only mind)! And because we like you to sleep well - and wackily: more features on some of Slovakia's more interesting hotels.

AND what happens if you wake up one morning in London and decide, impromptu, to take the train all the way across the EU to Slovakia!
