But as a large lady the shower was very petite
I asked to change rooms and they said they had none then said they had one the next day so I moved to the modernist while the room was bigger but was not as plush as the continental
And the buffet breakfast was very bad against the continental so was not happy as the traffic on the main road was very very load almost all night so as I chose the continental never got to experience it to the fullest then I found out they have several other hotels the could h as be sent us

The location was good. We have stayed before, but it's certainly not a 4 star, disappointing! The reception staff were lovely and helpful. It was clean, the room, considering its advertised as superior, was small.
I didn't like that it advertised a spa bath, but as parts were missing on the jets, it was unusable. The mini bar was chargeable, and they made the prices up as they go. An error on my part in booking cost €30 extra per night, I can't see the value. The breakfast offering of grilled ham was a cold slice of meat, and the actual offerings were not good. Cold pre made commercial rosti is not what we expected from a hotel of this calibre. It's unfortunate, as it spoiled an otherwise pleasant stay.

Breakfast was a bit chaotic. It's served at your table. Sometimes all courses arrived together which meant scrambled egg went cold while you ate your muesli. They often ran out if items like pancakes.

Behavior of front desk during check out, instead of doing my check out they talked each other and ask me to wait, and then I waited at outside to come and do my check out, but never came and at the end my friend went and waited.
ridiculous and very unpleasent.

This is a classic hotel in the heart of Trieste. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, clean, quiet and well equipped. Everything in the centre of town is within easy walking distance. Valet service to park the car after drop off of luggage (€ 25/day).
The hotel should communicate the adress to give your GPS for the drop off place in the side street, the hotel address is in the pedestrian area. During our stay the main lift was out of order for two days. The shower crucible was too small for comfort (a larger one could have easily fitted in the bathroom).

An elegant hotel in the heart of the city that assigned me the perfect room! It was spacious with 2 balconies offering two different yet exceptional views.
The staff were super kind. Not only did they allow me to store my luggage one day after I left, they let me use the lobby lounge to do a few hours of work. The staff also recommended two outstanding restaurants. Basically, they made my life easy and enjoyable.
I won’t hesitate to return.
Nothing to complain about or suggest to improve.

Excellent, excellent location. In the hub, on the canals & easy accessible to restaurants, markets, shops & tours pick up points.
Reception team very friendly & extremely helpful. Enjoyed a lovely meal in the hotel restaurant, with helpful guide to select right wine.
!Room 503! Had read a review where previous guests had requested a room change. We booked 5 nights & arrived late after 8 hrs travel & unpacked before realising.The hotel features stating would have canal or city views. However absolutely no views at all. The access door opened onto area surrounded by black colour bond fence (due to air conditioners being on other side), plus had large skylight for lower floors. Ugly area which was unusable unless a smoker. Weather lovely & very warm while there. Due to black enclosed fence the air conditioner could not cool adequately even at night.

The service was very good, they helped us with parking, with the luggages and a great central location. Breakfast was very varied and delicious.
First the central air conditioner was broken. Very hard to sleep with the heat. Numerous things were falling apart in room 403 there was dripping water in the shower all the time, the trashcan was broken and didn't open, the sink didn't drain, and the the tap water was murky.

Great location and room was quiet, comfortable and staff were excellent.
Breakfast. Some of the staff were surly. Apart from one of the young women, they could all do with smiling and looking like they valued customers. The food was dull and a bit bizarre - muesli turned out to be two desert spoons of granola. When asked if we wanted milk, a large bowl of milk appeared to tip the granola into! It would work so much better if it was self-service buffet. That way could select the bread wanted rather than being presented with a basket of unwanted items. And choice of cooked breakfast was fried eggs or scrambled eggs only.

Ordering breakfast like in a restaurant, before self-service breakfast was so much better.
There is even a feeling of discomfort when ordering from the menu.
Also the bread that is served is very poor as if it is a very expensive food item, sweet croissants are given instead of bread, and also the bread is of poor quality (it is not in the hotel standard for 4 stars)

We stayed at the Modernist Hotel since there were ongoing renovations at Hotel Continentale. Location is central (just round the corner of Hotel Continentale) and the room was comfortable and clean. Breakfast was also very good.
Hotel Continentale changed our accommodation to the Modernist Hotel due to ongoing renovations. the Modernist Hotel was good and comfortable, therefore this has nothing to do with the Modernist Hotel per se. Nevertheless, we would have appreciated if communication about the change in our accommodation was done before our free cancellation deadline and not exactly the day after this deadline had passed (even more so when renovations had been ongoing for a while). Thankfully we liked the new hotel, but if we didn't we were given a Hobson's choice since we couldn't cancel it for free anymore even though we had paid a premium to have the free cancellation option.

The location is fantastic and close to the main square, shops and restaurants. The hotel has just been renovated beautifully.
It felt like we were the first guests in the newly decorated room. Many things missing such as an extra chair for clothes, in the bathroom no hooks to hang or where one could place anything. No safety box in the room as the receptionist said they havnt arrived yet.The worst part was that the water of the shower runs right out to the front door and shower handle came off. All is brand new but unfortunately bad workmanship! Aircon doesn’t function and when we reported the problem they acknowledged to fix it but it still wasn’t working by the evening. The next day same thing! It was a good thing the temperatures weren’t freezing. A pity I would recommend but the hotel still needs the finishing touches …
