Trieste 411 - Rooms & Apartments

Super staff, they helped us in every question, perfect location

The very first time, we happened to choose an accomodation, where there was no 24 hour service. The location was OK, but the rest was not. My wife is Italian on Father's side, so there was no language barrier. The heating was running by an air conditioner. We were trying to do our best to make it properly operate, but even after hours of trying, it did not make the room warmer. Then, we took the phone number from the reception and called the person in charge, Giulia. She was giving us instructions on the phone, but we did not go any further. Since it was Saturday, nobody was available to fix it. So we had to wait till morning for someone to come. This is winter, even in Trieste, so room temperature was not acceptable. As Giulia was saying, the house was fully booked, so she could not provide another room. All in all, nobody was managing our problem. Guest satisfaction is above all in any business. Then, due to my wife's native skills, we were booking another hotel, which doubled our expenses, yet it was worth every penny. There was proper heating, 24 hour reception service, kindness and way above average service in every aspect. Dott.ssa Nora V.

First of all it was so easy to get the train from the airport straight to the central train station, and it was a 5 minute walk from there to the hotel. We arrived late in the evening and I was worried that it might be a problem getting in as they don't have a 24hr reception, but they sent us instructions which were super-easy to follow. The staff, when we met them the next morning, were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious, spotless and very comfortable. We were given a voucher for breakfast in a nearby cafe/bar, (Harry's), which was excellent. The location is great for visiting Trieste. It's a 10 minute walk to the Grand canal and the Piazza Unita d'Italia which are right in the centre, where all the shops, restaurants and bars are. I highly recommend this hotel.

Check in was less than 2 minutes, we told the receptionist our name & they gave us a key to our room as payment is on check out. The 2nd & 3rd floor of this apar**ent block is the hotel, the reception was on the 2nd floor & our room was on the 3rd floor. There is a lift to get up and down if needed. The room was very clean and the bathroom is white marble tiled which was very stylish. The bed was comfy too but could hear noises of the cleaner around 10am or so both mornings. The hotel was about a 10 minute walk to the center of Piazza Unità d'Italia & 6 minutes to the bus station. The lobby into the building definitely needs lights that stay on as the current lights turn off after 15 seconds or so. There is also construction going on outside the bedroom windows.

Have rarely stayed at such a clean and neat hotel. The room was very spacious furnished with modern furniture and it had a brand-new bathroom Besides, the front of the building had been repainting in a beautiful yellow.

Location convenient to train and bus station. Also main attractions by walking or taking the buses. Only neighborhood has some abandoned buildings and you see migrants around. Otherwise all the basic and cleanness is met. Staff friendly.

Hotel is in an apar**ent building on the 2nd floor with a lift. It's clean and lcoated within walking distance to all amenities. The walls were quite thin and you could hear people talking quite clearly outside the room as well as people coming and going which was a bit frustrating while trying to sleep. The facility is also quite strict on check out time.

There are quite limited options shown on the pages and travel blogs on things to do in trieste. There are several wonderful things to do in trieste apart from visiting castles and cathedrals and museums only. There are a number of public transport yachts during summer time which run between several stations such as from trieste port to barcola to grignano to sistiana....also from trieste to Muggia. These ferries take 25-35 minutes to reach at any of these mentioned destinations. So u may go and see the fairytale towns and comeback by ferry or by bus. It gives wonderful experience via ferry on an economical price of around 4-5 euros (one way). There is also a ferry that goes to trieste port to croatia on a reasonable price which takes two hours to reach the destination. There are several italian food places but the one I would like to mention is eataly. It gives u options to buy italian food products. It is a kind of food mall where u may buy food and there is also a food court where u can dine-in. There is a big cave Groto Gigante, you may check the timings and ticket prices online. It is a must visit place when u visit trieste. Trieste has wonderful beaches spots. You may easily find shallow and deep water spots fo swimming along the beach of barcola point. You may also dine-in at a sailing club by simply making a reservation if you want to have an experience of typical italian fresh food. There are several gelaterias in the city but there are a few which serves the best such as zampoli gelateria near the ghega bus station, a 3 min walk from the central station shall give u the best taste of italian gelato in the city.
