    The property is located on the gulf of Trieste on the Adriatic Sea, with picturesque views. The property is setup as a resort vacationing facility. The hotel is located within walking distance of Miramare Castle. Tommy the Breakfast manager is amazing he made our stay memorable, he is the best.

    We would have loved to either walk down to the sea front or take the lift, but realise these were closed for maintenance after winter storms.

    Stunning location overlooking the Miramare, wonderful friendly staff; breakfast team (Douglas & Tommy - engaging attentive and friendly), spa (Sarah - lovely and competent), delicious high quality dining, easy access to Trieste and nearby restaurants and attractions by car.

    I consumed too many beverages sitting on the terrace enjoying the ocean and made my stay more expensive.

    The scenery is amazing. The breakfast manager, Tommy, and the food were exceptional. It was one of the best breakfast buffets I have had the pleasure of eating.

    Beautiful hotel in gorgeous location, with a few things to improve.

    Two things prevented me from giving a perfect score of 10: (a) the elevator music in the breakfast room was unbearably awful. For someone who likes good music, this is akin to torture. For most people, it may not be such a big issue, but for music lovers with sensitivity to music, it could be a dealbreaker. (b) I asked for the heating to be turned down, but the heating in my bathroom could not be turned down and as a result, it felt like a sauna. In the room itself, the air conditioning/heating was set at 23 degrees and could also not be regulated easily. At night, it was far too hot, and I had to open the windows, which then led to cold air streaming in. A room that would otherwise have been supremely comfortable was therefore never really comfortable.

    This is a beautiful hotel in a spectacular location, with super friendly and helpful staff, and nice rooms with very comfortable beds.

    The location is unmatched. The staff is excellent. The lobby is like a homely living room and feels like working at home but with a sea view. The restaurant was superb; it has to be noted that it is not a budget option, but similar restaurants in the city will charge the same... so it is a very comfortable, fine dining option near your room. Breakfast was fantastic, and the morning waiter, Tommy, was great. The fact that you get real coffee from the kitchen and not from some terrible self-serving machine set next to the pancakes is noteworthy extra value for your money. Parking is easy and safe.

    We like the whole property, location with private parking. A breakfast is absolutely great with different delicious and beautiful decorated meals. Mr. Tommy is so kind. Also, he prepared me an amazing cappuccino. I really enjoyed. Also, we eat dinner in hotel’s restoran. It was very delicious and Mr. Alessandro is also so kind and professional. We really enjoyed this property.

    A few minor things were a bit “run down”, but perfectly fine

    Everything. The view of the see, the friendliness of the staff. Great breakfast, prepared/served by Tony, a super nice character. Also the Malvasia at the bar was delicious and affordable. Great bed and great room.
