Gens Julia

A bed and breakfast on the third floor of a building in old Trieste, with a garage, a terrace and rooms full of furniture and paintings.

Why people love it

• Davide and Federica. Guests describe Davide as kind and helpful, and several say the owners gave useful tips on getting around and where to eat.
• Breakfast. Guests call it excellent, with coffee served on the terrace.
• Garage parking. Several guests say the private garage is free or easy, which is unusual in Trieste.
• Old town location. Guests say it is a few minutes' walk to Piazza Unita.

The worst thing guests say

The most repeated complaint is the stairs. Six guests between 2018 and November 2025 mention that the rooms are on the third floor with no elevator. A 2023 guest also found breakfast basic and the price high for February. A 2019 guest said it didn't feel like a true B&B because there was no common area.

Insider tips

• Expect three flights of stairs with luggage.
• Garage parking was described as free by some guests in 2025.
• Davide can recommend places for lunch and dinner.
