Travellers' Choice
Hotel James Joyce welcomes you to the most historic district of Trieste, in the Cavana pedestrian area 250 metres from the main square Piazza Unita d'Italia. Trieste's Cruise Terminal and Congress Centre are also nearby. Built in 1770, this is one of the most characteristic hotels in town. You have free Wi-Fi access in common areas, and a generous buffet breakfast is served daily. You are just a short walk from the major attractions and lots of typical restaurants; ask the hotel staff for their expert recommendations.

Great central location with simple but superbly clean rooms with extremely comfortable beds. Very friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic find, I highly recommend it and if and when I return to Trieste I will definitely go there again. I would say it has the spirit of Trieste, clean, pleasant and with nice people. Thanks Hotel James Joyce.

Stayed for two nights in September. it's not a bad place, but rooms are small and basic - more of a two star hotel with four star prices. We stayed in the double on the top floor, supposedly their best room: small and stuffy. The air condition was switched off for the season; upon our complaint (the party noise from the small street below made it impossible to open the windows at night), the aircon was switched on by friendly staff, but made more noise than difference in temperature. personal comment: when we had to leave a day early due to a family issue, the greedy owner insisted on imposing a one night penalty, using a particularly idiotic argument, namely that his (own) website didn't allow him any flexibility on conditions. so, if you prefer genuine hospitality to profit maximization, take your business elsewhere, otherwise it's an OK place to overnight. …

Because of our broken car we had to extend our stay in town. Following our basic instincts we ended up here, in the most cheerful hostel I ever visited. Our small room is just suited with every possible expectations (spotlessly clean, fine design, historical center, etc., almost forgot: great breakfast), but the most suggestive and delightful element is the staff itself! Calmly helpful, full of heart - and a very, very fine sense of humor. Home is at home, but sometimes it can also be the James Joyce Hotel - thank you!

Everything about our stay here was perfect. We received a warm, friendly greeting with advice about places to visit. Our room was quiet, modern and stylish, the bathroom a good size and spotlessly clean. It's located about two or three minutes walk from the main piazza in Trieste, so you can walk everywhere. The staff were all welcoming and polite. I would recommend it to anyone. In fact, it's almost worth going to Trieste just to stay here!
