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.
-A spotlessly clean, decent-sized room with an abundance of good quality furniture, fixtures, fittings etc. -A characterful building in the charming old quarter of Trieste -Superb-value -Fast check-in 5 stars would have been awarded had the breakfast not included rancid milk, self-baked supermarket bread and better matress would have been nice Would use again without hesitation.
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!
This hotel has a fantastic location. The rooms were very clean, the staff were really friendly and super helpful with suggestions in town. The breakfast was amazing!! Would definitely recommend this hotel.
Comfy room, very clean. Nothing over fancy but all in good repair and clean. Breakfast had a good selection and coffee was made to order. All the staff were friendly and welcoming. Location very near to Piazza Unita and lots of nice places to eat close by.
Great location. Simple but superbly clean rooms with extremely comfortable beds. Wonderfully fresh breakfast. Staff very friendly and helpful. Fantastic find and would definitely recommend and stay again when in Trieste. Thank you Hotel James Joyce.
