You can also watch the sunset over Miramare Castle from the hotel, which was so beautiful. The lobby is small when you first walk in, but the staff is very friendly and accommodating. I was on the third floor with a balcony. Note that not all rooms have balconies, so call or email to check when you make your reservation. As I mentioned, this hotel is right on the water. It is about a 50Euro taxi ride from the airport. Miramare castle is within walking distance. You can take a public bus straight from the hotel to city center, but note that Trieste city center is not really within walking distance. The hotel has a continental breakfast included, and it is incredible. It was the best breakfast I have ever had, and the best cappuccino ever. I wish I could live there - just to eat that breakfast everyday. The room was small, but had everything I needed. The bed was pretty uncomfortable. In fact the bed would be my only complaint, but the view and delicious breakfast more than made up for it.

We were pleasantly surprised by the kind desk manager providing us with an unsolicited room upgrade on the second floor with massive windows, tons of space and a modern bath. In fact this hotel housed in a historic building of a former insurance company has an impressive exterior and entrance along with an imposing statue with three lions just behind the front desk. Our rate included a decent breakfast buffet in the price as well. Because of the age of the building, street noise (tons of scooters) was a bit of an issue but I always travel with ear plugs so not really an issue for me. Bed was nice pillows thin and a bit too firm for my tastes. Another plus was location; away from the bust cruise ships towering over everything and a short walk to restaurants and sights. A good place to stay.

In a historic building (what isn't a historic building in Trieste?!), it's quite beautiful and doesn't have a chain hotel feel. The room was large and nice (could maybe use a fresh coat of paint, but other than that, a very pretty room). The location was great - walkable to everything we wanted to see on our day in Trieste - and you have access to an offsite parking garage (they park your car for you). In a city like Trieste (lots of traffic and crazy difficult parking), it was great to be able to drop off our car and walk around for the day. The breakfast buffet was quite nice (that huge chunk of Parmesan made my morning), and the customer service was really great. Overall, I'm happy we stayed here.

The staff here are stand-out wonderful and the daily brekky offerings delightful, with great food and coffee choices. Our 4th floor air-conditioned bedroom was on a corner and double-glazed so it was fairly quiet, especially, usefully, at night time. Our room was on the small side again great in - room coffee and the bed lovely. The bathroom has a sliding door and has a shower (stand in the bath) that was real powerful and there's a bidet which I always am delighted to find in hotel rooms. The hotel lift is also on the small side. The rooms have clearly been renovated, there's some nice touches in the bathroom accessories and the room had a tiny wall - mounted tv that we didn't watch as Trieste has so much to offer from great food to stunning architecture, a complex history to include a coffee museum (being Italy's largest coffee importer/processor) and with all these delights who wants to watch telly. They have a snug bar open in the evenings near ground floor reception (where the breakfast area is) but they do switch off their espresso machine about 10pm so if coffee is your drink of choice get in before then. It's our second time in Trieste in a year - the first time was an emergency when I was toxin poisoned and hospitalised courtesy of MSC cruise line. This time we intentionally returned and we would return here again in a heartbeat and would love to stay at least a week as Trieste is just wonderful. If you need more proof of its greatness it was home to genius James Joyce for near 16 years at the start of the 20th century which must have been a world away from dirt poor, tenement Dublin. The decay of Dublin was epitomised by Henrietta Street, which had once been home to generations of lawyers, but was, by 1911, overflowing with poverty. An astonishing 835 people lived in 15 houses. At number 10 Henrietta Street, the Sisters of Charity ran a laundry with more than 50 single women inside. Now we know nuns and laundry gave rise to pure unblemished evil but that's a whole other horror story.

I arrived at Trieste port from the cruise ship, walked over the street, and saw the hotel that I will be staying at on the next day. I was very surprised that I will be moving my luggages from the ship over to the hotel with just a few steps. It was the most convenient move ever! The hotel itself was amazing! Beautiful, super clean, and the staffs here are so nice. Service is beyond my expectation. We arrived early. Matteo made every effort to get the room ready for me as fast as he can. He was so accommodating. Really appreciate this as we needed a place to rest. Breakfast was great! View of my cruise ship. Leunijt was amazing! He made sure customers are taken care of. I noticed another group appreciated him so much and showed him a token of appreciation. I would come back here again.

It was anything but that. The rooms were small, but totally everything you needed. Everything new and spotlessly clean.

But what amazed me was the spectacular breakfast they had in a very pleasant room. Everything was top quality, pastries, sliced meat, cheeses, lox, fruits, yogurt, cereals breads, and delicious frittata and perfectly cooked bacon and sausage. I highly recommend this hotel!
