Hotel Excelsior is located in the heart of Monfalcone, a city known for its splendid Rocca, which is visited by hundreds of tourists interested in the history and culture of the area each year. Built during the Middle Ages, the Rocca witnessed the First World War, as it acted as a reinforcement for the positions placed there.
Today, it is the site of a theme park on the Great War and an  
interesting permanent paleontological exposition. The Rocca is also a destination for lovers of trekking and nature, who can discover the local flora and fauna by following the nature trails set in the surrounding areas. In order not to miss the activities proposed by the area, book your next excursion at our centrally-located hotel.

Cona Island

The Mouth of the Isonzo River is the ideal habitat for many animal species and for resident or migratory birds, in particular. This spot has been dubbed one of the best areas for birdwatching in Italy. Cona Island harbours a visitor centre, which has been recognised internationally and is ideal for educational, scientific and natural purposes. A special feature here is the horses, which live freely in the reserve and help control the development of vegetation.
