Residenza le 6 A

The Ordinary Punter really liked this place - book it direct with the owner, not via a booking website, It's not a hotel, not a b&b, but your residence in Trieste city centre.The name of "Le 6 A" residence is a tribute to Italo Svevo and to the women from Trieste, who are traditionally held as beautiful, free-minded, caring and strong-willed, just like the women characters in Svevo's novels. Each room is dedicated to one of them. It's really good - large rooms, en-suite bathroom, wooden floor, kitchenette, tv-set and wi-fi. Go for it!

We had a perfect stay. Andrea (receptionist) gave us excellent sight-seeing tips and was very helpful.

We stayed in Residenza la 6a for 3 nights and my family of five were very comfortable in two rooms. The simple breakfast was a nice start to the day. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The location on a pedestrian street is in an excellent area and it was so easy to walk to many of the local sites, restaurants and water. We were also close to a couple of bus stop which made it easy to reach the Residenza la 6a from the train station with our luggage. We also left for the cruise ship from another bus stop just a few steps away and that was quite simple as well. We enjoyed our stay in Trieste very much and Residenza la 6a was certainly part of that!

We waited too late to book hotels at the beginning of the summer, and ended up staying in three separate locations over the course of a five day stay in Trieste—but the two nights we had at Residenza Le 6A, by far the best hotel of our trip, more than made up for it. The room and building beautifully preserved early 20th century details (a period elevator, wood parquetry, Viennese-style chairs at the breakfast table—the listing photos don’t do it justice!) while providing modern conveniences (renovated bathroom, full kitchenette, very clean). The manager, Gabrielle, is extremely friendly, clearly passionate about the city and its history, and incredibly helpful wrt storing belongings after checkout. Thoughtful touches such as James Joyce decorated biscotti and a voucher for two free coffees at Caffe San Marco were lovely and contributed to the hotel’s graceful & subdued evocation of Joyce and Svevo’s Mitteleuropa. We also didn’t realize this before booking, but another pleasant surprise was that the hotel appears to be shabbos friendly (very poignant given the building’s history). Loved our stay; thank you to Gabrielle and everyone else!

Welcoming from start to finish, well-equipped and excellently located. Came in from Venice by train and hotel is just a 20 minute walk from the station, through a pleasant neighbourhood. Left by cruise ship, and pier is just a 15 minute walk from hotel, mainly along the harbourfront. PLenty of nice restaurants and cafes nearby, as is the main historical district.

Amazingly taken care of rooms, the bed was very comfy and being able to cook my breakfast was really nice. Hostess was amazing to us!

Great boutique style bed and breakfast. The place is better than the feel you get just looking the pictures. The rooms are big and cozy. You'll get a bit home-like feeling. Excellent staff that helps you whenever needed.

Great, always come back here, when I am in Trieste.

Excellent choice. I made a brilliant choice.
