Hotel Torino Porta Susa is a straightforward, moderately priced hotel in the neighbourhood of Porta Susa, the modern station that handles Turin's fast trains. It is aimed at travellers who prize position and price over style, and who plan to spend their days out seeing the city or travelling onward. The area to the west of the historic centre is well connected by metro, tram and bus, and has a more residential and local atmosphere than the streets around the main monuments. For a short stay it is a good way to keep costs down without staying far from the action.
Porta Susa is the station for fast trains to Milan, which take a little under an hour, and for connections to Rome, Florence and Venice, as well as Paris on international routes. The modern glass station has metro, bus and tram connections, and Turin Caselle airport is reached by a dedicated airport bus or by train with a change.
If your trip combines Turin with Milan or the Alps, this is one of the most convenient parts of the city. Check the walking time from the hotel to the station and the metro when you book, since the best rooms are those closest to the entrances.
The historic centre is not far. Piazza Castello and the Royal Palace are about fifteen to twenty minutes on foot, and the Quadrilatero Romano with its wine bars and restaurants is a bit further. Metro Line 1 and several tram routes cover the distance quickly. The neighbourhood has bakeries, bars, small grocery shops and everyday restaurants, and it feels like a real part of the city, with fewer tourists. Turin evenings are good for aperitivo, a ritual of drinks with snacks, and you will find places near the hotel as well as in the centre.
Good to know
A hotel at this level offers clean, practical rooms rather than luxury, and room sizes vary. Breakfast may be included or optional, so compare rates. Noise from trams or traffic is possible on streets near a station, and a higher floor or a room at the back is quieter. Rates in Turin rise during fairs, conferences and major events, so check several dates.
The hotel suits budget-minded couples, solo travellers, rail travellers and short city breaks, and it is a handy base for a day trip to the Langhe wine hills, the Superga basilica or Milan. If you want a historic building or a spa, compare the central hotels on this page. If you want a simple, sensible base near fast trains at a fair price, it does the job well.
