Hotel in Avigliana, near Turin in Italy

Ninfa Hotel, Avigliana

Lying just 20 kilometres away from Turin's town centre, this Avigliana hotel is ideally situated for exploring this fascinating region. There's easy access to the motorway, and the picturesque mountains are nearby too. Turin, which is just a short journey away, has all the vibrant culture that you would wish for; there are good restaurants, museums and a lively music scene. If you are interested in the history of the region then this is a good base to start from: Turin is surrounded by grand castles, once owned by the dukes of Savoy. There's also the Gran Paradiso National Park which has superb scenery, and of course, the ski resorts of the Alps are within reach too.

The Hotel Ninfa has all the modern facilities that you will need. These include a restaurant which prides itself on providing excellent Italian cooking to its guests. And for those who wish to dine alone, room service is available. If you're feeling sporty, there's a luxury golf club nearby and the health conscious will be pleased that there is also a gym close.

This is a modern hotel with 120 rooms, all elegantly furnished. Every room in this Piedmont hotel has an internet connection and a safe for valuables. The front desk is open 24 hours, and the friendly staff are on hand to help you with any questions during your stay, or indeed to help organise sightseeing trips to Turin and the surrounding towns.
