Casa della Contessa Art Guest House is a bed and breakfast in the Historic Centre of Turin, 300 meters from Piazza Castello and less than a kilometer from the Mole Antonelliana. The property occupies a period building on Via XX Settembre, the street connecting the city’s main square to the principal railway hubs, and offers air-conditioned accommodations designed for both short stays and more in-depth visits to the city.
The rooms, all with private bathrooms featuring toiletries, bathrobes and hairdryers, vary in size and view: some overlook the city with panoramic balconies, others face a quiet inner courtyard. Each room includes a flat-screen TV, refrigerator and electric kettle for tea, while a common lounge is available for guests to relax or socialize.

Casa della Contessa Art Guest House offers six room types, all air-conditioned and equipped with a private bathroom with shower, bidet, hairdryer and toiletries, plus a flat-screen TV and welcome chocolates. Room sizes vary considerably, from the 12 square meters of the Standard Double Room to the 27 of the Quadruple Room, offering solutions suited both to couples and to small groups or families.
Many rooms enjoy views of the city or a more secluded inner courtyard, and several feature a balcony.
