Overlooking one of Turin's most beautiful squares, this sprawling property occupies a 17th-century building, once the Albergo di Virtù, a Savoy charitable institution (and home to the famous political theorist Antonio Gramsci). The decor is cutting edge, highly atmospheric and deeply luxurious. There's a great downstairs bar and guests have access to rooftop terraces and a gym.
Breakfast is served in a stately courtyard among the hotel's own lemon trees.
