Hotel Torino

We had a lovely stay — my daughter and I spent 3 nights here. The location is excellent: just a 5-minute walk to Termini station, bus stops, and tour buses, with plenty of restaurants nearby. It’s also only about a 7-minute walk to St. Mary Major Basilica, where Pope Francis was buried. The room was cleaned daily with fresh towels, shampoo, soap, and hair caps provided. However, there was no shower gel, conditioner, or body cream. I brought my own shampoo but also used the one supplied. The shower had good pressure, though the water wasn’t always very warm. The rooms are a bit dated, but I appreciated the framed photos of Lord Jesus or Saint Mary in each room — a thoughtful touch. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel’s rooftop restaurant, with both indoor and outdoor seating, offers lovely views from the balcony. Just watch out for birds if you’re dining outside — they may try to grab your food! Overall, it was a good experience. Just don’t expect a true 4-star standard; as with some hotels in Spain and France, it feels more like a 2–3 star property.
