Top 10 accommodation options in Turin's historic centre

This elegant bed and breakfast is one of the most popular of the city's upmarket establishments. With a superb view over the main piazza Vittorio Veneto, its four rooms illustrate the charm of the Turin style, a blend of tradition and modernity. It is the image of Giuliana, landscape architect and owner of the Look To.

The wooden furniture and soft, shimmering colours create a cosy atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. Each room is also bathed in natural light from the large windows.

At around 250 euros per night including breakfast, the Look To is ideal for a romantic getaway. It is also suitable for young parents, with a babysitting service and baby accessories available on request.

Have you fallen in love with an armchair in your bedroom? Have you fallen in love with the wall tiles in your bathroom and would like the same in your home? You can order them! The hotel regularly renews its bedding and furniture to enhance the comfort of its rooms, but also to showcase local craftsmen and designers.

As well as accommodation and breakfast, the Look to also offers its guests original 'experiences' such as a hot-air balloon ride, a guided tour of the Pista 500 greenway, and a tasting workshop with a famous Turin ice-cream maker.
