Grand Hotel Duchi d'Aosta  

Real Edwardian atmosphere, wonderful reception staff, nice (though small) room with very nice bathroom and brilliant location. To park your car you need to leave it in the 'yellow box' outside the hotel and give your keys to the reception staff. They'll arrange for valet parking. They need 20 to 30 minutes notice to bring your car back. 24 hour parking costs 21 Euros. Mine came back in one piece :-)

The hotel restaurant (Harry';s Grill) is expensive, slow and the food is poor (for Italy). The waiters are polite, but give the impression they really don't care. Eat out. There are many better and much cheaper restaurants within 5 minutes walk. The square outside is noisy at night (at least at the weekend). Revellers were still singing (badly) at 3am. This doesn't bother me as I regularly sleep through nuclear holocausts, but if you're sensitive to street noise it may bother you.

Very hospitable staff. Excellent location. Satisfying menu for lunch and dinner. Child-friendly.

The hotel breakfast did not have much variety. The rooms did not have shampoo and conditioner. No ironing service!

Great style

Two of the items in the spa were out of order but the staff didnt tell us. The main shower didn´t work.

Really nice hotel. A touch of class with linen sheets and pillowcases. Good food, friendly staff, hopefully I will return

Great location. Very good welness area

Split bed tight together supposed to be a king size bed

The decor and furnishings were superb: antique furniture and classic style very well adapted to modern needs. The staff were exceptionally comptent and friendly at all levels, including porters and chmabermaids, and the reception was delightful.

The staff went the extra mile to be helpful. The rooms were very commfortable and well rennovated. There was pleasant public space.

Limited options for food, with no room service excellent restaurant primarily for dinner. A very bright light in the bathroom which came on in the middle of the night for a cactus growing in a basket from the ceiling.

The location is unique and ideal. The staff at reception is superb, helpful and accommodating. The room, overlooking the piazza, was elegant.

Only the location.

The staff were unfriendly and, unhelpful. The rooms were very poorly maintained. The breakfast was very basic. The only thing going for this hotel was it's location. The poor level of service was the worst I have experience in all the traveling I have done.

The room was sizeable and very nice - unfortunately the experience was spoiled by the relentless construction noise on the road next to the hotel.

Construction work was carried out right outside of our room with deafening noise - obviously not the hotels fault, but they were very unhelpful in dealing with the issue. No other room was offered, and we were charged nearly the full rate which meant we had to pay a fortune for a bad two night experience! Breakfast was poor. I would not go back to this hotel.

It was our wedding anniversary trip. They replied to our emails immediately. Hotel's staff and especially women receptionist was very friendly and helpful. Although we booked the room one day in advance only, we got upgraded to a room with beautiful view on plaza, and we could check in early. Spa was stunning and pool although average size was the most beautifully designed and decorated with "ancient Rome mosaic". Selection of coffee in the bar was fantastic. Hotel has unique design and boast of some authentic antic furnitures ( as such would probably suit more mature than youngsters, but that's very subjective opinion). Breakfast was delicious. Overall excellent hotel, and would highly recommend for any romantic, relaxing, class holiday or weekend break.

Only various phone, tv, wires lying on the floor could be hidden from . aesthetic point of view. The room could be slightly bigger for the price.

Best Position posible in Trieste. Nice and charming room. Great pool and spa center.

Room is rather small (12mp) for a 4star hotel.

Friendly staff and comfortable accommodation in a central location
