B&B Hotel Trieste

B&B Hotel Trieste is set in an elegant historic Habsburg-era building on Piazza della Libertà, right opposite the central railway station: only about a hundred metres separate the platforms from the hotel entrance, and the coach terminal, including the airport buses, is around fifty metres away. Piazza Unità d'Italia, the waterfront and Molo IV, where ships and ferries dock, are all less than a kilometre away.

This entirely non-smoking three-star hotel pairs the nineteenth-century architecture of its common areas, with marble floors, a fireplace and a wrought-iron staircase, with modern, colourful furnishings. Rooms range from singles to triples, including attic economy rooms and superior rooms with minibar, and all have a private bathroom with bidet and large shower head, hairdryer, safe, air conditioning, memory foam mattresses and pillows, and a 43-inch Smart TV with Chromecast and Sky channels. Free Wi-Fi reaches speeds of up to 300 Mb/s.

A sweet and savoury breakfast buffet, with organic and gluten-free options, is served every morning from 7 to 10. In the lobby, the B&B Shop sells drinks, snacks, ready meals to heat in the microwave and travel essentials. The front desk is staffed from 7 am to 11 pm, and an automatic kiosk allows check-in at any hour. Guests also enjoy reduced rates at the Sticco beach club, reachable by bus.

Dogs and cats are welcome, one per room, for a small nightly supplement, making this a convenient base for exploring Trieste with your four-legged friend.
