Villa Sassi ★★

An early 17th-century villa set in its own 50 acre psark east of town near the Basilica of Superga.

Rooms on the first floor are larger, with Oriental rugs and semi-designer 1980s furnishings or antique dressers scattered across the parquet floors; a few open onto spacious terraces. Second floor rooms are smaller, with terra-cotta tiled floors and sloping ceilings and better views over the surrounding forested hills. The bar opens onto a pleasant cobblestoned terrace. Their restaurant is highly regarded in the area, popular with Torinese for a breezy summer escape from the city. The rooms are on the first floor with large windows open to tree views, and the terrace can be enjoyed during the warmer weather.

The price ranges

The price categories for hotels on this site are as follows:

Under €100
€€ €100–€200
€€€ Over €200

This reflects the lowest cost for a standard double room in low season.

Yes, that does leave a whole lot of wiggle room. Rates will be rather higher for, say, a "superior deluxe" room with a spectacular view at the height of high season. Still, we have to be able to compare somewhere—and using this metric does at least give you a relative sense of how the hotels compare to one another on price.

Since price ranges (€€–€€€) only muddy the issue, I will usually stick to a single designation for each hotel. The only time you will see a range is if a property offers more than one distinct category of lodging—not different types of rooms (many do that), but say a property that offiers, say, both private hotel rooms as well as hostel-like beds in a shared dormitory.
