Front desk folks were helpful and accommodating. The bathroom was clean. The air in our room was not great but good enough. My son said his room the air was OK. He had a single and the shower is small, but workable. Great location …close to plaza and train station.

Not ever again
This has quite frankly been the worst hotel room I have ever stayed in. I wish I could say anything positive. Perhaps that the towels absorbed quite well. From a lack of power points to the general dilapidation of the room I was allocated, it has been my worst experience ever. Compared to other 3* hotels I am at a loss at this rating. Compare this to Motel One in Vienna and you will instantly see what I mean. Also compare the room rates. We are talking Vienna, not Trieste. I have always trusted Hotels.com blindly, perhaps I was wrong.
The state of the radiator, never seen paint before.
The state of the wall, torn wallpaper. No attempt to fix.
Knobs of cupboards that come off in your hand.
The one and only power point in the room

Good location and great staff.
Well run, clean hotel with very friendly, helpful staff. Large room, high ceiling, plenty of towels, good house cleaning. Good, standard continental breakfast included. Close to all the sights and 3 minute walk to train station. I was very happy with my five night stay. Two very small things that could be easily addressed by management. The shower head was a bit weak and sprinkly. Adequate for washing but easily updated. Second, there was no iron and ironing board available to borrow from reception, which I found extraordinary for a large hotel. I was told there was a dry cleaner nearby but I only wanted to iron a shirt before an evening concert! They should really invest in an iron and board! But despite that oddity, I'd definitely stay there again, the staff were wonderful.

Good service in an older hotel
Hotel manager was very helpful. He recommended a great restaurant to us for dinner and explained highway control policies of neighboring countries. Check in was efficient. Breakfast was good. Parking was a big problem that we had to park 1.3 km away. Room was tired that needs updating.

A classic 3 * hotel in downtown Trieste. Room was small but adequate. Breakfast fine. There were two receptionists on dury during our stay: one helpful, the other totally disinterested.

Hotel Milano
The only reason I did not give it top rating is because there are better hotels if you want to pay much more. For the money it was excellent , breakfast was good and we were very pleased with our stay. Very nice bathroom.

Quaint hotel in a central location
We used the hotel as a stopover in Trieste before catching a train to Venice. Its just a short walk from the station. Its old and slightly antiquated but the welcome and service couldn't be faulted and everything worked so no problem. Restaurants and bars were another short walk away. Trieste is a lovely place with some grand buildings and worthy of a longer stay. An excellent buffet breakfast set us up for our onward journey.

Close to train station.
For a budget hotel it was nice. Room was nicer than photos I had seen. On enquiry I was told the 4 the floor, where our room was, had been renovated. Room was spotlessly clean as was the bathroom.There was air con in the room which was controlled with a hand held remote. The entrance and downstairs was a bit tired and dated, but clean.Breakfast was good. Hotel was walking distance from the water front and the old town. Perfect for our needs as we were there for a music event in the Piazza Unita d'italia, which was 10 minute walk away. Staff were friendly and spoke English.

Smaller hotel, convenient location.
Convenient location close to station and a comfortable stroll to the city centre. We had a largish room facing the back which was very quiet and comfortable. Bar fridge handy but would have LOVED a kettle in the room. Decor very dated but clean and comfortable, and you’re not paying a fortune. Breakfast adequate. Staff were friendly, particularly the lovely staff at breakfast.

Not my favourite Italian city but what there is, is within easy walking distance of the Hotel Milano. My room was small and bed tiny but it was very clean. I think it was on the more expensive side for the room but I would stay again.

CLOSEST HOTEL TO STATION
Older hotel 2 blocks from train station. Nothing fancy but comfortable for my 2 night stay. Room was dark with not enough light fixtures so would probably not be a place for businessmen. Breakfast was filling. The Mediterranean Sea is about 5 blocks away with numerous sidewalk cafes. My only problem was that of the noise of a tour group on the first floor. As there is an open staircase the noise got me up too early. My suggestion is to ask for a quiet room if groups are in the hotel.

Very comfortable hotel four mins' walk from railway station and eight mins from the magnificent Piazza dell' Unita. Staff are very helpful and can speak fluent English. Breakfast is good though the emphasis on cakes and the sweet stuff is perhaps too great. Would stay there again without any hesitation.

Depressing, non-ironic 1994-style decor
Ok, so this hotel has a couple of good things going for it: it's right near the best gelato shop in Trieste and it has a big sign, making it somewhat easy to find. It's reasonably close to the train station and the desk staff was nice, too. However, our accommodations resembled an interrogation room, featuring exactly one tiny, covered window and all dingy bare walls except for a dinky "painting" (aka a blown-up clip art/stock photo printed on canvas). There was some dark, awkwardly sized wood-veneer furniture, too. I know it's only three stars but does it have to look like the world's saddest pre-Y2K dorm room? The trash in our room had not been taken out after the previous tenant left. The common spaces probably haven't been touched since 1994. The neighborhood is well, by a train station...so you know? There are other three-star hotels even closer to the train station and there other three-star hotels in nicer parts of town. I am struggling to even call this one clean, so I can't in good conscience recommend it.

Convenience, Price, Location
Great room, had 3 English news channels on the TV and good wifi in the room. My one complaint is that the room's floor was dusty, and left black dust rolls stuck to my feet. The entire room (closet door tops, floors, and other surfaces) needed a thorough dusting. Otherwise, the staff was nice and breakfast was good.

Couple Makes Annual Visit to Trieste
We visit Trieste annually and always stay at Hotel Milano for a couple of days, either at the beginning or the end of our trip. The main reason is because it's so conveniently located near the train station (two blocks away) and the Tram that goes to the village of Villa Opicina (3 blocks away). The same staff has worked there for years and they're very professional and helpful. While the rooms are typically Euro with a smallish bathroom, they're extremely clean. We've noticed in the past few years that the corridors have been updated and modernized. The breakfast is good with a vast array of rolls and croissants, cereal, fruit and table service for coffee. While the hotel doesn't have a glitzy exterior, it's very clean and the service is always reliable.
