Fans of all things ancient will heart the Egyptian artifacts on display at the Museo Egizio (5-min walk!). Shroud of Turin is also nearby.

Only a 10-min walk from the train station — stroll a bit farther, and you’re in the centre.

Full flats with kitchens and lounge space. Make yourself at home.

Rooms are well-appointed (but not over-the-top) for nights when you’re feelin’ refined.

A mere 10-min underground ride to Turin’s centre (station’s close, too).

Modern executive style offers a welcome that's classy, not flashy.

Free breakfast! Yes, there’s coffee.

Thankfully-soundproofed airport hotel is also blissfully close to Lake Maggiore. (Alpine views! Boat rides to Isola Bella island!)

Simple with a modern minimalist edge and a lively bar/resto/reception area.

Well-placed location 36km from Lugano and 32 from Como – ideal for outdoorsy pursuits like hiking and biking.
