Hotels With Swimming Pools in Friuli Venezia Giulia, Italy

I loved our overnight stay at The Modernist! It’s a chic, smart, arty hotel in the centre of the city, easy walking distance to all the shopping, bars and restaurants. The room was spotless with tea, coffee, minibar and toiletries all provided. The restaurant and cocktail bar serves creative cocktails, a great buffet breakfast and a fabulous dinner - we enjoyed them all!!

Excellent location, staff very professional, and an amazing breakfast. Easy to tote our luggage to the cruise ship (about a 5 minute walk). Excellent apertivo just outside the hotel door. One night we were having apertivo and I just wanted something more. I order a gnocchi from their restaurant. I never had gnocchi with a meat sauce and it was excellent. Lots of shops and eating places. Would stay there again.

Perfect location and excellent staff and service. The room was very clean, spacious, and had comfortable beds. However, a fridge for water during the summer would be amazing, and the shower needs a good scrub.

1) Front desk stuff was not helpful at all!!! 2) Access to the hotel’s lobby is only by stairs and all stuff was trying to pretend there were busy not to help at all. Luckily, we had only small suitcases, so that was not a problem for us, but still for this level of hotel I would expect welcome service in front of the hotel and not at the front desk. 3) I would not recommend “Historical One Bedroom King Suite” - it looks like the room had been plundered long time ago. There were literally no decorations whatsoever, be it old or new

The price-performance ratio is good. However, the rooms are very old and the cleanliness of the rooms could be better. The breakfast is very good and varied considering the price of €7.90.

Overdue for sharing my thoughts on my October 2021 stay at the Palace Hotel Moderno. The service by all the staff, reception, room service and during breakfast were all friendly & top notch. My room was clean, well appointed and had everything I needed (next visit I will ask for extra pillows). My room was on the side of the building closest to the Posta, a busy local watering hole and the crowd noise was not a problem. Local bakeries and Coop grocery close by to ensure I could stock the mini fridge with aqua frizante and snacks for late night. WiFi was fine, suited my needs perfectly. Looking very much forward to my return visit this October.

Excellent room service, The location facing the sunset is lofty. But this hotel is a hive. A comfortable but impersonal hotel.

It was the best location while traveling to Trieste. The facilities are clean and the bathroom is satisfactory! However, it was a pity that the sound insulation was not good. The sea view that was slick was also goodㅎㅎ I'm going to ask you guys planning a trip to Trieste. It seems to be a good hotel! Highly recommended

The hotel is very well located in the city centre (making it very walkable) and also very close to the Slovenian border. All of the hotel staff were very friendly and ready to help if needed. The breakfast is the best we’ve had on our current European vacation. Will stay here again.

Hotel ben arredato e ben tenuto. le camere hanno tutti i comfort necessari e sono spaziose e pulite, comodo il letto. Punto di forza la colazione, torte molto buone, la proposta in generale è di qualità. Il personale è giovane e ben educato. Io lo consiglio.

Loved this apartment - amazing location in the centre near to lots of great bars and restaurants, walking distance to everything yet also really chilled. Eqsy to check in and out. Great size for two, kitchen well equipped for cooking and comfortable bed. Do take ear plugs if you are a light sleeper as air con is very loud and it's easy to hear movement in other apartments but on the plus can hear very few noises from outside.

If you want to truly experience Trieste in the right location and with style then this is the place. A small perfectly built Palace run by staff who care about their guests. There is absolutely everything you need here. I arrived late at night and when I walked out onto the breakfast room the following room found myself saying wow at the view on the stunning Piazza. I choose this hotel because I had always wanted to stay there in Trieste, I did return for a second stay and I would stay there again. You are close to the sea, the historical centre, numerous bars and restaurants, shopping and tourist hotspots. The rooms are lovely, majestically clean. Breakfast are a relaxing experience you do not want to hurry because why would you with that view around you. The bar is the place to be throughout the day and also acts as an informal restaurant throughout the day. Formal is also available but that was not my choice. Rooms were large comfortable and very clean with the best amenities provided. Book your stay, you know you want to!

Lots to like but just not quite great. Firstly I have noted that the hotel is quick to say that flaws are due to the price point and perhaps the reviewers should go to a higher priced hotel. We stayed in a very similar hotel in Barcelona which was actual less official ”stars” than this one and it is clear from my reviews that we are not about luxury hotels. So I know what the experience of hotels like this should be. I gave the Barcelona one 5 stars. I know what I'm paying for. Good points - very clean, spacious rooms. Location was good although area isn't the best. Breakfast was great and breakfast room was lovely (if a bit cramped). Delicious croissants - plain, chocolate and custard filled - and juice, although the omelette (I think) looked inedible. Air con worked and beds were comfy. Bad points - the door to our 4 bed room was basically a fire escape - think double doors with push bar and to lock when you're in it at night you have to lock if from the outside first then shut it. Bizarre, made it feel like our room was an add on that used to be a corridor! Lifts did not go to bedroom floors (stopped on landing between floors) so you had to walk up or down one of the two flights of stairs between floors with your cases. Ok for us but if elderly not going to work. Our shower looked fancy in that it had a few water sprays, a large overhead shower head and a small handheld. In fact the only bit that worked was the small handheld one - the knob for the rest had been removed. Our son got locked in the bathroom immediately, took us several minutes to get him out. It was a sliding door so a few minutes later my husband came out and closed the door behind him and it locked and got stuck again 🙄 basically the door didn't fit and the lock thing was bent. Couldn't open it to use bathroom. We went out and asked them to fix it while we were gone. Returned hours later - still locked. All the way back down to reception from 4th floor (there's a phone in the room but no instructions on which number to press for reception 🙄). The man on reception apologized he had forgotten and came up and managed to open with a screwdriver. Didn't lock it again. Luggage storage is basically just allowing you to leave your luggage piled up in reception. I'm sure there's a better solution! So, we loved Trieste and the hotel did the job at a reasonable price but there are things that need to be resolved regardless of the price point. They clearly knew about the shower as they'd removed the knob for example instead of fixing it. Offering to help with bags and having a storage room. Fixing things when they do go wrong. Providing info needed eg what number on the phone does what? Completely blank and no info sheet. Small things that are basic expectations regardless of the cost of the room.

This Hotel was 3 star not 4 star. I guess because of the swimming pool they have achieved this? The Restaurant was closed during August (disappointing) and it is in a more industrial area, luckily we had a car so could drive to a restaurant one of the evenings. Reception were really helpful. The bar is modern and drinks were great and reasonable. The bar menu is limited but was good. Breakfast was good with lots of choices although watermelon the only fresh fruit. The corridor outside our room was dark and very 1970’s looking. Room had all we needed but dated. Pool was fine, we had to take beds outside to the sun. Small space outside. All in all just ok, could be improved with an upgrade of the building!

Delightful staff. We asked for a High, Quiet Room with a Walk In Shower and that is, exactly what we got - Room 304 Wide selection of items at Breakfast. Super staff, after ordering an Espresso on the first morning, one was brought to me without asking each day Whilst I support the Greeks for trying to get their Elgin Marbles repatriated. I doubt the country of origin is asking for the offensive statues of black people by the fireplace in the Breakfast Room. In 2023 positively offensive. They should go. Hotel very well built but now looking tired. A major makeover needed. Drain for our Shower needs bleaching, very slow to drain away. Thanks all for a lovely stay. 5 nights with Riviera and their lovely Courier, Agnes. Hayling Seagoon

I stayed with my husband a night in this beautiful structure, carefully treated in every detail and especially managed with great professionalism and attention. The hotel is very comfortable and comfortable and is very comfortable. The second floor room, without elevator (strictly pointed at the time of booking) is not a limit but a value added in a structure that maintains its structural characteristics (except the pool that The hotel is a place to return for the comfortable location in the city centre and for the experience of relaxation and friendly welcome!
