Very good hotel, staff professional and friendly. View from balcony unfortunately disturbed by large cruiser. Among the staff especially outstanding was the concierge Giulio, helping by any question or problem. Will go there again next time in Trieste.

From our first email, Giulio was exceptionally helpful, and made great suggestions for sightseeing, restaurants, and excursions to Slovenia. In person, Giulio is smart, attentive, and amusing. It was a pleasure to plan out each day's activities. The hotel is lovely, and perfectly located on the waterfront.

I was traveling solo while in Trieste and decided to treat myself. So happy I stayed here. I booked one of the balcony rooms overlooking the harbor. The view makes up for the street noise when the windows are open. You are on top of all the great restaurants, sites and shopping. The room was so cozy, quiet, comfortable bed and was made up each morning when I was out for a walk. Bar/cocktail service was incredible. Such kind bartenders in the lounge with excellent cocktail choices and snacks. I rented a car to drive into Slovenia- the hotel valet parked it for me overnight 30E and when I needed purchase an on-line e-vignette for travel across the border, Guilio the Concierge handled it for me. So, Kind! Wifi was rock solid- I was able to access all my US based platforms, in room fridge, coffee and hair dryer. The only thing I didn't love was there restaurant- Otherwise would stay here again and again.

An absolute gem of a hotel and location is spot on. Our cruise ship literally docked right out the front which we could see from our balcony at the front of the hotel. Location is spot on with the palazzo just around the corner. The hotel is just superbly designed. Trieste is a beautiful town and way better than Venice.
