Does anyone know of a car service that will do Vienna to Bratislava? I reached out to Mike’s Chauffeur Service and am waiting to see if he does this but thought to ask here as well. TIA!

Unfortunately I don't know about a car service, but I have done the trip by train and it is quick and easy. Have you considered taking the train?

We actually took a boat ride from Vienna to Bratislava. It was a nice ride. It left just over the river in Vienna, a short walk from the center and left us off another short walk to the city center.
We booked with a Slovakian company, it was half the price of the Austrian one.

We took Twin City Liner, catamaran, that takes 75 minutes to get from Vienna to Bratislava. We stayed at the Sheraton, Andee were able to walk along the River to get to our hotel. It was a pleasant way to go.

It appears the current one-way rail fare is 12.70 euros and the round-trip fare is 19 euros if you return within 3 days (e.g., to Bratislava on Jan 2, return to Vienna no later than Jan 5). The round-trip ticket includes local public transportation in Bratislava on the day you arrive there.

daytrip.com 174 euro (each way) from your hotel to the edge of the old town (Yikes!!) But they offer some sight seeing stops for 30 to 50 euro each.
Let me suggest about an hour on a train to Győr (20 euro) https://youtu.be/y3EhzDyCzxg?si=S7XdfKMVOSh7NhEx for a few hours then a taxi to the archabbey in Pannonhalma (20 euro) for a few hours https://youtu.be/kBYsexwEbPc?si=XMTyHmvDfvESy0bn. :-)

Thank you all! We ended up doing the train and it was definitely easy. Train was crowded so if anyone is planning on going soon arrive early to be the first on board if you need seats together and luggage space.
