 | Trieste Alabarda Flora Reviews | 1 - 4 of 4 |  |
This place was booked solid when I tried to get a room. But, the owner was nice enough to show me a room of people that hadn't yet arrived, so as to rub it in that I had to go to a more expensive hotel down the road. This place has singles for 48 Euro (less without W/C) and doubles for 68 (< without W/C). The rooms were nice, small, but completely adequate. With Trieste having very little cheap hotels or hostels and this place being right in the middle of central Trieste, it’s your best bet for good accommodation. Leave a Comment

I'm amazed that Hotel Alabarda is only a one star hotel. I don't understand why. It has everything I look for in an inexpensive accommodation. The bathroom was very good, the bed very comfortable, the room very clean, and the breakfast was great. The staff was friendly and helpful. Although it's on the second floor, there was an elevator.
The hotel was easily walking distance from the train station, if you had an idea where you were going! I arrived at midnight and had no clue so took a short taxi ride. Leave a Comment

Sent here via "Banjo"'s recommendation I perhaps expected more than I got.
Firstly I came to the realization that my Renault would not be parked out the front. Indeed, about five blocks away was the closest I could hope for after I dropped my bags off.
Having placed them behind the front door I drove off and luckily found the way in to the carpark at the first attempt.
Returning to the Alabarda I ascended to the relevant floor in the bordello-red lift wherein one passenger is comfortable, two is cosy and three obscene.
The room was typical backpacker with sparse furnishings, a TV of the smallest-screen type abutting the ceiling in one corner and a remote control with a dodgy back panel that wanted to fall off whenever it was operated. The washbasin seemed lonely on the wall opposite the bed.
The community bathrooms were spacious and clean and there was often someone in attendance nearby, thus giving a feeling of security.
The breakfast was passable and overall it would suit someone seeking basic accommodation in the city. 5 star it is not. Leave a Comment

Hi everyone
For cheap and friendly accommodation in Trieste - this is the place to go. Only stayed for one night but the people were great, rooms were spotless and very spacious and although it was a bit noisy in our room at night with people walking up and down the stairs, it was a lovely hotel experience after somewhat dodgy 80s dive in Croatia. Also has really cheap Internet (only one computer but it's free if you only use it for 15 minutes) plus nice little touches like a communcal bookshelf and cute guestbooks.
