TORINO 1854 AFFITTACAMERE, Turin

The property sits on a quiet side street just off the main shopping street, so the centre is effortlessly walkable while traffic noise stays low. Porta Nuova railway and metro station is around 400 metres away, and the historic centre - including Piazza Castello, Via Roma, Piazza Vittorio Veneto and the Mole Antonelliana - is about 10-20 minutes on foot. Cafés, bars and restaurants are within 300 metres, and the tram 4 stop near the corner gives direct access to the Inalpi Arena. Torino Airport is 17 km away.

Rooms are spacious, bright and recently renovated. Each includes soundproof walls, a work desk, a flat-screen TV, a wardrobe, an electric kettle, complimentary tea and coffee, and a private bathroom with shower, bidet, hairdryer and free toiletries. City views are common, and two twin/double rooms add balconies - one facing the city, the other the inner courtyard. Triple rooms are particularly large, and bathrooms are also generous, with some layouts suitable for wheelchair use. Beds are very comfortable, and the quiet side-street position means little traffic noise even though a restaurant operates downstairs. The historic building's exterior is modest, but interiors are clean, bright and well maintained.

Self-catering is straightforward: each room includes an electric kettle, tea and coffee, a mini fridge, and there is a communal dining room where meals can be eaten, with a microwave available. A supermarket is on the same street for supplies. For meals out, the immediate area offers numerous options within about 300 metres, including Antica Pizzeria Sapore, I Vitelloni, Buck's Sport Cafe, Sushisound and The Mongolian Barbecue, plus a vegan restaurant on the corner. A bar on the same block works well for a quick coffee. Since no breakfast is served, an in-room self-service breakfast or a café stop nearby is the practical approach.

Recreation centres on Turin itself: the Mole Antonelliana and Piazza Vittorio Veneto are within walking distance, and the historic centre is easily covered on foot. Board games and puzzles are available for quiet evenings in the property, and tram 4 from the nearby stop provides direct access to the Inalpi Arena for concerts and events. The absence of pool and spa facilities makes this property a practical choice for a city break.
