La Marmotta

La Marmotta is a family-run guest house set in a historic building dating back to the 1400s, in the centre of Luserna San Giovanni, in the province of Turin. The property has a well-kept garden and offers rooms with free WiFi, designed for both short and extended stays thanks to the equipped kitchenettes.

The available room, 35 square metres in size, is designed for two people and combines the features of a hotel room with those of a small independent apartment: private entrance, bathroom with shower and bidet, kitchenette with fridge, utensils and microwave, plus a separate dining area. All accommodations include TV, wardrobe, sheets and towels.

In the morning, guests can choose between an à la carte breakfast and a more traditional Italian one. The location, on Piazza Parrocchiale, puts the Convent of San Francesco and several historic local establishments within easy reach, while Torre Pellice and its railway station are just a few minutes away. Couples particularly appreciate the tranquillity of the area and the intimate atmosphere of the old building.

Location & what to see

La Marmotta is located on Piazza Parrocchiale, in the historic heart of Luserna San Giovanni, a town in the Waldensian Valleys in the province of Turin, inside a building whose origins date back to the 1400s. The area retains an intimate, residential character, with cafés and restaurants just steps from the property’s entrance, including La Cascina just 50 metres away and Locanda dell’Antica Lucerna about 200 metres away.

100 metres away is the Convent of San Francesco, one of the town’s most representative historic sites, while the Waldensian Temple, a symbol of the area’s Protestant religious tradition, is about 1.4 km away. The Luserna San Giovanni railway station can be reached in a few minutes on foot, about 800 metres away, and connects directly to Torre Pellice, 2 km away. For those arriving by car or plane, Cuneo-Levaldigi Airport is 41 km away, while Turin Airport is about 52 km away.

The location at the foot of the Waldensian Valleys makes La Marmotta a convenient base for exploring the surrounding nature: Colle Vaccera, 8 km away, and Punta Cornour, which rises above 2,800 metres at about 13 km away, offer summer hiking trails and views over the Cottian Alps. In winter the area is suited to quieter trips among the villages, while in the warmer months mountain trails and huts become destinations for day hikes. Turin city centre, with its Cathedral, can be reached in about 10 km from the nearby reference town.
