Bottom Line

Housed in a 17th-century building, the upscale NH Collection Torino Piazza Carlina has updated interiors featuring sophisticated modern decor and elegant architectural accents. Conveniently located right on the Piazza Carlina, the property is within walking distance of restaurants, shops, and sights. The hotel's 160 guest rooms are chic and modern with understated, polished decor and a range of amenities including free Wi-Fi and high-end extras like well-stocked minibars. There's also a classy restaurant, a small and chic bar, a fitness center, and a rooftop terrace on-site. But travelers looking for a well-located, high-end hotel in Turin should compare rates with two of the city's other top hotels: the Grand Hotel Sitea and the NH Torino Santo Stefano.

NH Collection Torino Piazza Carlina

Scene

Sophisticated modern decor with 17th-century architectural accents

The NH Collection Turin Piazza Carlina is situated in a historic 17th-century building with a central stone facade featuring elegant carved details, arches, and balconies, though it is accented on either end with a more modern-looking yellow facade with wrought-iron balconies. Inside, the renovated building blends fresh, modern decor with elegant architectural elements, including a central open-air atrium surrounded by beautiful arched colonnade walkways. Guests are greeted at a natural-wood reception desk lit by a long chandelier-like pendant light with a spiraling glass design. The hotel bar was created from a cedar tree by local craftsman and is topped with glass cake stands filled with treats, while the dining area offers modern sophistication with impressive circular hanging lights and a wall of perfectly aligned wine bottles. Sophisticated, stylish, and centrally located, this hotel attracts both leisure tourists and business travelers.

Location

A central Turin location close to restaurants, shops, and sights

The hotel is conveniently located in the center of Turin on a charming cobblestone street right along the Piazza Carlo Emanuele II. Guests can walk to a variety of bars, restaurants, shops, and local attractions; the Mole Antonelliana is just a six-minute walk from the hotel, the Egyptian Museum and the Po riverfront are an eight-minute walk, and the Royal Palace can be reached in 13 minutes. The Turin Airport is about a half-hour drive. The hotel doesn't have it's own parking, but guests are directed to an underground lot a few minutes' walk from the hotel, which costs an extra fee.

Rooms

Chic, modern rooms with a range of amenities, including flat-screen TVs, minibars, and tea/coffee facilities

The hotel's simple but stylish guest rooms offer posh modern accents that include linen upholstered chaise lounges, overstuffed armchairs, or spindly molded desk chairs. These pair perfectly with more classic decor and furniture, like white and beige walls, fresh wood floors, and floor-to-ceiling curtains. Rooms might have leathery platform beds with nail-trim upholstery, hanging pendant lights, cream-colored walls with brown or pastel accents, or gooseneck bedside reading lamps. Everything comes together to create a clean, purposeful look a step above typical hotel fare. All rooms include a wide range of amenities, such as flat-screen wall-mounted satellite TVs, work desks, safes, and free Wi-Fi. Rooms also offer generous coffee and tea trays, a selection of snacks, and well-stocked minibars. Rooms are air-conditioned and soundproofed against exterior noise. Bathrooms are chic, modern, and generally well-sized, most with black-and-white or gray ceramic tile floors, white fixtures, and glass standing showers. They come stocked with a range of individual toiletries and have quality hairdryers and towel-warming racks. Some rooms include bathtubs or balconies with a view over the piazza.

Features

Classy restaurant, chic bar, outdoor sitting areas, and fitness center

Features at the NH Collection Torino Piazza Carlina are fairly extensive and focus on being restful and restorative. The hotel has a small but chic casual bar and a classy restaurant which serves Italian fare. Its breakfast buffet is included in room rates and offers healthy and organic options as well as a choice of warm and cold standards, plus hours are extended during the weekends. Guests can relax in several common areas, including a serene stone atrium, a pleasant rooftop terrace, and an indoor lounge with velvety seats, a TV, and books. The top-floor fitness center, which is closed late night, is sparsely decorated, but tasteful and well lit, offering modern cardio and weight equipment like a treadmill, stationary bike, weight machines, and free weights. 

Four event rooms have space for meetings, weddings, and other celebrations, and an event planner is on staff to help with organization. The largest room can host up to 150 people and the hotel has a range of audiovisual and business-related equipment for conferences and meetings. 

The hotel has most of the services one would expect from a four-pearl property, such as a 24-hour front desk, a bellhop, a concierge, and room service (during limited hours). Cribs, extra beds, and electrical adapters are available, and laundry or dry-cleaning services can be arranged. Cats and small dogs are allowed for an extra fee.
