Bed and Breakfast Al Laghetto is a family-run guest house in Basovizza, a hilltop village on the Trieste Karst about 10 km from Castello di San Giusto and the centre of Trieste.
The property caters to guests looking for a simple, affordable stay, perhaps as a base for exploring the Karst plateau and nearby Slovenia: it has a garden, free parking and free WiFi throughout the property. The rooms are family-sized, non-smoking, furnished with a wardrobe and bed linen, but share common bathrooms equipped with a hairdryer.
Guests can also use a shared kettle for tea and coffee. The setting among the hills of the Karst, close to the village’s restaurants and trattorias, makes it suitable for those who prefer countryside quiet over city life, while still being a short drive from Trieste, its port and the central railway station.
The rooms at Bed and Breakfast Al Laghetto come in two simple, functional types, designed for practical stays in a family setting. Both have a wardrobe, bed linen and heating, while the bathroom is shared among guests, equipped with a hairdryer and shared toilet facilities.
The Single Room, at 11 sqm, is designed for one guest with a single bed, ideal for solo travellers looking for an affordable option. The Double Room, larger at 20 sqm, offers a large double bed and can accommodate up to three people, making it more suitable for couples or small groups. In both cases, the property provides a kettle for tea and coffee, handy for a break in the room without having to go out.
The Single Room, the smallest in the property at 11 sqm, is designed for one guest and equipped with a single bed, wardrobe and bed linen. The bathroom, as with all rooms, is shared with other guests and has a hairdryer. A compact, practical solution for those travelling alone.
Nearly twice the size of the Single Room, the Double Room offers 20 sqm and a large double bed, with room for up to three people. It is the only room in the property suitable for couples or small groups, still with a shared bathroom and heating included.

Basovizza is a hilltop hamlet of the Municipality of Trieste, set on the Karst plateau at about 400 metres above sea level, on the border with Slovenia. It’s a rural, quiet area, far from city traffic, characterised by woods, sinkholes and small stone villages, where Bed and Breakfast Al Laghetto occupies a secluded position with a garden.
In terms of connections, the historic centre of Trieste with Piazza Unità d’Italia and Castello di San Giusto is about 10 km away, reachable by car in around twenty minutes; Trieste Centrale railway station is about 7 km away. In the immediate vicinity, within 300 metres, are a few traditional restaurants such as Leban, Tiglio and Trattoria alla Pesa, convenient for dinner without having to travel. Castello di Miramare is about 13-21 km away depending on the estimate, while the famous Škocjan Caves, in Slovenian territory, are about 14 km away.
The area is ideal for those who enjoy trekking and walks: the Trieste and Gorizia Karst, a protected wooded area, is just a few km away, and the surroundings feature trails, historical sites linked to the First World War and the Male Brce adventure park, popular in spring and summer. In winter the area remains quieter, suited to those seeking peace and views over the Karst rather than a lively atmosphere.
Reviews praise above all the friendliness of the staff, rated with an excellent score, and the quiet location among the hills of the Karst. Cleanliness and comfort receive fair ratings, while services and WiFi connection are the weakest points according to guests.
