A hotel in a quiet area of Turin, Italy

Hotel Giotto, Torino

This three-star hotel in Turin is located in a quiet residential area close to the River Po and Valentino Park. All of the Hotel Giotto's 50 rooms have air conditioning, en-suite bathrooms, with either a Jacuzzi (whirlpool bath) or shower, hairdryer, minibar, in-room safe, TV and direct dial telephone. Breakfast is included and there is a comfortable lounge bar.

The beautiful Torinese hills that cover half a million square metres make Valentino Park one of Italy's largest parks. Castello Valentino (Valentino Castle) can also be found there and was once the scene of many huge, extravagant parties thrown by the dukes of the Savoy dynasty. It's now home to the University of Turin's faculty of architecture. The Lingotto Fiere Exhibition Centre is also close by. Here you'll find the original Fiat factory and the company's headquarters which are now located in the redesigned main building. A bus or tram will quickly take you into the centre of the city to explore the many attractions. Visit the city's beautiful cathedral (Duomo), which is home to the world famous Turin Shroud, also see the car museum, and fascinating cinema museum. Here you can trace the history of cinema, including Italy's own unique contribution, right up to the present day, and discover the secrets of modern cinema's special effects techniques.

The Hotel Giotto is a relaxing place to stay but is still close enough to the busy city centre. The front desk in this Turin hotel, operated by friendly staff, is open 24 hours and self parking is also available.
