Hotel San Giusto
This is a good hotel, at 35 min. walk from the train station (up hill). The service is excellent and the breakfast to be recommended. The room was clean, the bed good and the shower good except that the cubicle is small.

Second time at this hotel. I recommend it. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is the fact that the dining room is closed Saturday and Sunday (except for breakfast).

Hotel Città di Parenzo
A lovely little hotel, five minutes walk from the city centre. Incredibly friendly staff and very quiet. Do be prepared for a few unavoidable stairs.
