I first stayed at Residence Sara while recording in Trieste back in 2008. Me and my fellow musicians have stayed in different apartemens, and they were all clean, spacious, well equipped. The stuff have been very friendly and helpful, and after that first experience I have been using different structures from the budget bed and breakfast to the finest rooms... More

Having booked many months earlier a nine-day stay at an entirely different establishment (the Residence San Marco) we were surprised when we got off the airport bus to be met by a young couple who informed us that because of a structural collapse, we had been switched to an alternate accommodation. The couple then drove us to the Hotel Barbacan,... More

Location is excellent, walking district in the old city center. Plenty of bakeries, caffes, restaurants, supermarkets, shopping centers in the area. Apartments are comfortable and tidy. Bathroom is fully functional. Most importantly, personnel (staff) is very hospitable, flexible, and pleasant. I would definitely recommend this place to anybody travelling to Trieste for whatever cause. Will come back definitely.

The staff was so incredibly nice and helpful. The flat was perfect and spacious, and for those braving the heat of an Italian summer, the air-con was a wonderful reprieve. Excellent location with many restaurants and sights nearby. Very good price. Thank you again for a wonderful time!

A very nice location, a clean and airy room, helpful reception staff and a reasonable price. Good? Absolutely, and a great alternative to a standard hotel. Trieste is an amazing, fascinating town apparently choosing tourism as its battleground for survival, and this residence will surely help Trieste win, and tourists enjoy it. Let's now take my rosy-tinted glasses off, those... More

Affordable, comfortable, and a great location. I had a great experience. Trieste is a beautiful city with a lot to offer. The only thing i missed was wifi, however the Tourist Office offers free wifi during the mornings.

Fantastic location and great value for money. Helpful and friendly staff. Excellent choice for couples and families for breaks of any length. Only think lacking was Wi-fi and English language channels in the apartment.

It is hard to find affordable accommodation in Trieste. I highly recommend Sara residence for backpackers, families or anyone looking for something affordable and flexible. The owner is a real gentleman.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, i called only hours before they were still able to give me an excellent price on a room. The rooms are very tidy and quiet. Located in the best part of the city.
