ControVento

This hostel is amazing. We stayed there for two nights and had a wonderful time. It’s very close to lots of bars and restaurants and you can see the harbor out of some of the rooms. The kitchen facilities are spacious and very clean. And the included breakfast was great. All of the people staying at the hostel were wonderful. Trieste is a great city and this is a great place to stay. The hostel was also very close to public transit (bus) stops so it’s easy to get around if you want to venture out. Definitely note that there is no lift and the hostel is a couple floors up, so pack light! The hostel was also pretty hot and humid, I think they could benefit from some fans. However, I understand that Trieste is a very hot and humid city in the dinner. Marta, who works reception, is so kind and helpful!

4.5⭐️ Marta was awesome!! This is a very nice hostel on the 3rd floor of an old building right along the port boardwalk. Big common area, full kitchen, and breakfast included, but prepared to hike up some steps! Very prime location, especially if you are interested in taking the ferry to Muggia for a beach day (the departure point is a 3 minute walk from the hostel). The 12-bed mixed dormitory is the way to go because it has many windows and is a very spacious sleeping room. However, if a summer storm rolls in, the staff will have to shutter all of the windows and there is no AC, so it can get very warm at night. Definitely pack ear plugs and an eye mask because the city wakes up around 7am which is very audible when the windows are open.

ControVento was a very nice hostel that we would always recommend not only because it was very clean and comfortable to stay at but also because in time of need (very bad situation in a restaurant that resulted in a visit at the local police- just don’t go eating at Assaje-pizzeria! ) the staff was very supportive and showed true empathy! Even the manager herself offered us help.. we are grateful for that experience and would go back there anytime!

Molto carino, camere ampie, ben organizzate e pulite. Anche i bagni sono puliti . personale gentile e disponibile. Colazione a buffet, con differenti opzioni sia dolci che salate. anche se la cucina è un po' troppo piccola ed essendo un gruppo ci siamo dovuti alternare. Sono stati comunque gentili ad aver anticipato l'orario della colazione per noi. Posizione abbastanza centrale.

Ostello arredato molto bene con oggetti vintage e piante. La saletta è davvero confortevole ed è un piacere starci. L'unica pecca è che manca l'ascensore per raggiungerlo (quarto piano) e i pavimenti in legno sono scricchiolanti ma sicuramente ci torneremo. Posto centralissimo, colazione inclusa, cucina ad uso libero e personale super disponibile. Consigliatissimo.

Mi sono recata presso questa struttura durante il periodo di fine luglio. Molto accogliente, personale gentile. L'unica pecca è che si moriva dal caldo nonostante i vari ventilatori. Ma chi come me dormiva nel letto in alto, si schiattava e non era possibile dormire... per il resto basterebbe mettere a disposizione una colazione adatta anche per chi come me è intollerante al glutine ed al lattosio.
