Principi di Piemonte | UNA Esperienze

Principi di Piemonte | UNA Esperienze sits on Via Gobetti in the middle of Turin, a 5-minute walk from Porta Nuova and under 10 minutes from Piazza San Carlo, the grand square often called the "salon of Turin." The hotel's history ties back to the city's Savoy heritage, and it is rated one of the best luxury stays in town — an average guest score around 8.9/10. Five Star Alliance grades it 97 Excellent and quotes a guest calling it "super friendly, excellent rooms and facilities."

Rooms and decor

There are 99 rooms and suites done in classic Italian style — high ceilings, premium linens, carved-wood furniture and tall windows that pull in plenty of daylight. Several upper-floor suites look out over the Turin skyline and the edge of the Alps, and the Deluxe rooms and suites come with dramatic freestanding tubs that reviewers love to photograph. A few guests note that some areas read slightly dated, but for a heritage hotel the rooms land firmly in good territory.

Food and amenities

The full spa runs signature facials, body wraps and couples massages, and reviews steadily rate it a standout that earns its keep. The indoor pool is clean and quiet, fine for both laps and a wind-down, and the fitness centre is kitted out for a serious workout. Ristorante Casa Savoia serves Italian fine dining that reviewers praise for ingredient quality and the feel of the dining room, while the buffet breakfast spreads across savory and sweet options in the Italian style.

Location and getting there

Porta Nuova station is about 400 metres away, an easy 5-minute walk, with trains to Milan in roughly an hour and onward connections across Italy. The M1 metro at Porta Nuova links you to Porta Susa, the high-speed station, and the rest of the city. The Museo Egizio — the world's second-largest Egyptian museum — is around a 10-minute walk, and Piazza Castello with the Palazzo Reale is about 15 to 20 minutes on foot. The airport (TRN) is roughly 40 minutes by GTT bus.

Things to know before booking

This is the priciest stay on our Turin list, starting at about $243 a night and topping out near $514, and some reviews openly question whether the value matches the rate. A few of the heritage room types still feel dated despite their good looks, so it is worth asking for a recently refreshed room. There is also no listed free Wi-Fi or free-breakfast perk here, which some 4-star rivals nearby do offer.

Our take

If you want a spa, an indoor pool and a real Savoy-era luxury feel within a 5-minute walk of the station, this is the standout choice in Turin — that mix is genuinely rare downtown. Couples and honeymooners get the most out of it; budget-minded travelers will find better value lower down the list.
