TORINOTOSTAY APARTMENTS, Turin

TorinoToStay Apartments sit in a quiet street directly opposite Porta Nuova station, giving immediate access to trains, trams, and buses connecting the entire city and Turin Airport (45-50 min by bus, €7 single). The surrounding Crocetta neighbourhood is a top-rated area with supermarkets, bakeries, bars, and restaurants within a 200-500 m radius. The Egyptian Museum and the historic centre are under 10 minutes on foot, while Juventus Stadium is 6 km away. Street-level parking (paid blue zones) and private garages are nearby, but the location is best suited to train travellers or those exploring the city on foot.

Each apartment offers one or two separate bedrooms, a living room with sofa bed (sleeping up to 4-6 guests), and a fully equipped kitchenette with stovetop, fridge, microwave, dishwasher, and washing machine. All units feature private entrance, soundproofed windows, flat-screen satellite TV, parquet flooring, and free toiletries. The large king-size beds are consistently noted for comfort, and the two quiet air-conditioning units (one in the bedroom, one in the living area) provide effective cooling. Some apartments include a balcony or quiet street view. The property has a lift to the 4th floor; attic units involve a short flight of 15 stairs. Inter-apartment sound insulation is limited, so light sleepers may prefer to avoid units with adjoining walls.

The kitchenette in every apartment is well stocked with cookware, cutlery, glasses, pots, pans, a dishwasher, and a Lavazza coffee machine with complimentary capsules provided on arrival. A supermarket (facing the property) and a gastronomia, bread shop, and several restaurants are within 200 m, making self-catering and meal preparation convenient. For dining out, options such as Bar Della Posta, Les Petites Madeleines, Caffe Cervino, and a variety of international restaurants are all within a 5-minute walk. There is no on-site restaurant or bar, but the central location places dozens of eateries at your doorstep.

While the apartments do not contain an in-house gym or pool, arrangements can be made to access a nearby partner spa and fitness centre - contact the staff in advance to arrange. The location also puts you within walking distance of the elegant Valentino Park (along the Po River) and several museums. For longer excursions, the efficient tram and bus network connects to all major Turin attractions and the Juventus Stadium (6 km).

The property provides free, fast Wi-Fi throughout, a lift (to the 4th floor), and a minimarket on site. Services include express check-in/out, self check-in, luggage storage (free before check-in and after check-out until 18:30), and a concierge who can provide local recommendations. Daily housekeeping, dry cleaning, and laundry are available at an extra charge. Safety features include a security deposit box, CCTV outside, fire extinguishers, and key access. Cots are available free on request; pets are allowed for an additional charge. Payment is accepted via Visa, MasterCard, JCB, Maestro, and CartaSi.
