Parco Sassi Hotel

Parco Sassi Hotel is a three-star hotel at Via Tommaso Agudio 31, in the Sassi area on the east bank of the Po, in Turin, Piedmont. The location is away from the centre, about 3.4 km in a straight line from Piazza Castello and 4.4 km from Torino Porta Nuova station, in a green hillside district across the river. The area is best known for the Sassi-Superga rack tramway, a historic line that climbs from the Sassi terminus to the Basilica of Superga, the baroque church on the hill that houses the tombs of the House of Savoy and offers wide views of Turin and the Alps. The hotel is therefore a good fit for visitors who want a calmer base close to nature, hillside walks and the Po riverbank paths, rather than a central city address. Bus lines and the tram connect Sassi to the centre across the Po bridges in about twenty minutes, and the hotel is also convenient for drivers who prefer to avoid the limited-traffic zones of the old town. The atmosphere is quiet and residential, with a modest, practical character and a small neighbourhood feel. Rooms are mainly doubles and free Wi-Fi is available. Breakfast is generally served on site, and local trattorias and pizzerias in the district and along the river provide evening meals, usually at lower prices than the centre. The service character is simple and friendly, suited to families, cyclists, walkers and business visitors with appointments on the east side of the city. Rates are indicated at roughly EUR 80 to 150 per night. Details and current offers can be checked on the hotel's website at parcosassihotel.com, and visitors should verify tram schedules and transport options before arriving.
