Lots to like but just not quite great. Firstly I have noted that the hotel is quick to say that flaws are due to the price point and perhaps the reviewers should go to a higher priced hotel. We stayed in a very similar hotel in Barcelona which was actual less official ”stars” than this one and it is clear from my reviews that we are not about luxury hotels. So I know what the experience of hotels like this should be. I gave the Barcelona one 5 stars. I know what I'm paying for. Good points - very clean, spacious rooms. Location was good although area isn't the best. Breakfast was great and breakfast room was lovely (if a bit cramped). Delicious croissants - plain, chocolate and custard filled - and juice, although the omelette (I think) looked inedible. Air con worked and beds were comfy. Bad points - the door to our 4 bed room was basically a fire escape - think double doors with push bar and to lock when you're in it at night you have to lock if from the outside first then shut it. Bizarre, made it feel like our room was an add on that used to be a corridor! Lifts did not go to bedroom floors (stopped on landing between floors) so you had to walk up or down one of the two flights of stairs between floors with your cases. Ok for us but if elderly not going to work. Our shower looked fancy in that it had a few water sprays, a large overhead shower head and a small handheld. In fact the only bit that worked was the small handheld one - the knob for the rest had been removed. Our son got locked in the bathroom immediately, took us several minutes to get him out. It was a sliding door so a few minutes later my husband came out and closed the door behind him and it locked and got stuck again 🙄 basically the door didn't fit and the lock thing was bent. Couldn't open it to use bathroom. We went out and asked them to fix it while we were gone. Returned hours later - still locked. All the way back down to reception from 4th floor (there's a phone in the room but no instructions on which number to press for reception 🙄). The man on reception apologized he had forgotten and came up and managed to open with a screwdriver. Didn't lock it again. Luggage storage is basically just allowing you to leave your luggage piled up in reception. I'm sure there's a better solution! So, we loved Trieste and the hotel did the job at a reasonable price but there are things that need to be resolved regardless of the price point. They clearly knew about the shower as they'd removed the knob for example instead of fixing it. Offering to help with bags and having a storage room. Fixing things when they do go wrong. Providing info needed eg what number on the phone does what? Completely blank and no info sheet. Small things that are basic expectations regardless of the cost of the room.

Hotel in posizione comoda per raggiungere il centro, zona tranquilla e poco trafficata. Colazione abbondante, varia, sia salata che dolce, gentilezza e cortesia per le due signore che si occupano del caffè, cappuccini e cioccolata calda. Camera grande e accogliente anche se il bagno molto piccolo e scomodo. Passiamo alle dolenti note... il parcheggio e le informazioni non fornite dal personale. Abbiamo parcheggiato la macchina nella stessa via dell'hotel ma nella parte dove non sono attive le telecamere. Abbiamo chiesto a 3 persone diverse (signora alla reception della mattina, del pomeriggio e portiere di notte) informazioni sulle modalità del parcheggio (assenza di strisce per terra, informazioni su eventuale costo, ztl, pass per invalidi) ma nessuna di loro ha fornito informazioni certe. Nessuno ci ha dato indicazioni sul parcheggio, pur avendo noi un pass per invalidi. Questa cosa non va bene, se il personale non sa darti indicazioni in merito, a chi dovremmo chiedere?? Per il resto, presumo che per quanto abbiamo pagato, si potrebbe trovare altro magari in zona più centrale.

We recently stayed in the charming hotel after a cruise the hotel is in a wonderful location surrounded by shops restaurants bars in a beautiful city. The hotel rooms are comfortable and clean they could do with a little upgrade and additional sockets , The reception staff were welcoming and professional.The terrace bar /restaurant is lovely excellent food and service to match.

I loved our overnight stay at The Modernist! It’s a chic, smart, arty hotel in the centre of the city, easy walking distance to all the shopping, bars and restaurants. The room was spotless with tea, coffee, minibar and toiletries all provided. The restaurant and cocktail bar serves creative cocktails, a great buffet breakfast and a fabulous dinner - we enjoyed them all!!

1) Front desk stuff was not helpful at all!!! 2) Access to the hotel’s lobby is only by stairs and all stuff was trying to pretend there were busy not to help at all. Luckily, we had only small suitcases, so that was not a problem for us, but still for this level of hotel I would expect welcome service in front of the hotel and not at the front desk. 3) I would not recommend “Historical One Bedroom King Suite” - it looks like the room had been plundered long time ago. There were literally no decorations whatsoever, be it old or new

We stayed at the Urban Hotel prior to going on a cruise. The hotel was in an excellent location. Walking distance to the cruise terminal and train station. Our room was modern and clean. We were on the the fourth floor. Our room was very quiet. We could hear the church bells in the distance. The town square was a hop, skip and jump away. Perfect location. We would definitely stay again. The hotel had an amazing buffet breakfast. So many choices.

Strategicly very good being in the center Something might be improved by putting a matrimonial mattress in lattice instead of two singles with a moulded.

When we arrived and saw that yellow old house by the road our impression was that we had made a mistake. How wrong we were! What a beautiful hotel! We had a room in the mansion that had a breathtaking view of the ocean and was very comfortable. Beautiful bathroom. The front desk staff was extremely helpful and kind. Lunch and breakfast outdoors in the terrace with that amazing view were experiences in themselves. There is access to the ocean via an elevator from the hotel to a concrete platform where there are towels, beach recliners and shades. If you want to swim you go in the water via concrete stairs. There is a bar in the lido. Easy parking in the hotel. Excellent starting point for exploring the Trieste area. We would love t return in the future!

I made the mistake of staying at Hotel Italia because it was one of the few hotels in Trieste that still had rooms available at the last minute. That was the first warning sign. The second red flag was the less than gracious welcome that I received from the nighttime desk clerk and a badly-dressed ruffian who I was told was the hotel’s security but looked like he was just released from prison. The poor manners of the staff weren’t limited to them - the morning clerks were just as rude. The place looks, feels and smells more like a hostel than a 3-star hotel. The hotel entrance - it can’t even really be called a lobby - is shabby, dim and ill-maintained. My room was no better, with scuff marks on the walls, depressing faux-wood furniture and cheap curtains. The television screen had fingerprints on it and the toilet seat cover was covered in marks/engrained stains. The breakfast was a small selection of not-fresh, highly-processed low quality crap that makes you think “maybe I’m not hungry this morning after all.” Normally, for an experience this low caliber I would have expected to pay 60-80 euros at most. At the Hotel Italia it costs a whopping 141 euros for one person. If you like overpaying for a stay that will leave you feeling depressed, taken advantage of and a little unhygienic then Hotel Italia is the place for you. Otherwise find someplace - anyplace - else.
