Hotels in Turin: prices, timing and areas

When to book a stay in Turin for less

The cheapest month is August, when the heat sends locals away on holiday and rates drop by about a quarter against the rest of the year. The priciest is November, in the season of trade fairs, events and markets, when a room can run noticeably more than in summer. The day of the week matters. The cheapest night is Sunday, as business traffic eases, while you pay the most on Thursday, when delegations and weekend guests arrive. Turin rewards booking well ahead; you catch the best prices about three months out.

What a stay costs by property type

Turin has a wide range of prices, from a hostel bed to apartments and five stars in the very centre. The cheapest sleep is in hostels and three-star places; you pay the most for a family room and upper-tier properties. Below are indicative nightly rates for two people.

Where a stay is cheaper and where it costs more

Most people look for a room in the centre, around Piazza Castello and the arcaded streets, from where you can walk to the Mole Antonelliana, the Egyptian Museum and the main cafés. That is where prices run highest. San Salvario by the Valentino park is trendy and full of bars, good for the evenings, while Lingotto in the south clusters hotels by the former Fiat factory and the fair grounds. Crocetta is elegant and a little quieter. Cheaper are places further from the centre and by the Porta Susa station, well linked by metro. Being close to a stop often weighs on the bill more than the district itself.

Which stay in Turin suits whom

• First time in Turin. The centre by Piazza Castello is the easiest base. From here the Mole Antonelliana, the Egyptian Museum and the arcaded squares are all on foot, without a tram.
• For families. Places with family rooms near the Valentino park by the river and the museums. Children enjoy the Egyptian Museum and the view from the Mole Antonelliana deck.
• For couples. Boutique hotels in the centre and in San Salvario, such as Opera35 or Carlo Felice, with cafés and aperitivo bars round the corner. Everything is close in the evening.
• With breakfast. Many places, such as Aston Hotel or Hotel Lancaster, include breakfast, which helps you set off early to sightsee.
• With a view. Hotels in the centre, such as Turin Palace Hotel or Grand Hotel Sitea, give a view of the historic squares and the city tower. Handy for a short, elegant stay.
• Near the airport. Hotels nearer Caselle airport suit an early flight. A train or bus reaches the centre from here.

When Turin costs more

The dearest is November, in the season of trade fairs, events and markets, when the city runs its exhibitions and fills with business guests. It is dear too in spring and early autumn, with mild weather for sightseeing, and in summer during the Torino Jazz Festival. The cheapest and quietest is August, when the heat sends locals away on holiday and some venues close. The nicest time to visit, with good weather and arcaded squares that are not overheated, is late spring and autumn.
