Sina Villa Matilde is a 4-star hotel set in a patrician villa built in 1700 in Romano Canavese, Piedmont, restored to its original splendour through careful conservation work.
The property is surrounded by a centuries-old park of plane and chestnut trees that invites relaxing walks away from traffic. The 20 rooms and suites in the main building are connected by elegant interior halls and are divided between classic rooms with garden or courtyard views and larger two-level suites, some with a whirlpool tub or a panoramic balcony. In the area once occupied by the orchard now stand the outdoor pool and the Sina Wellness Club, with sauna, steam bath, whirlpool tub, massages and a fitness room.
It is a property suited to couples and families looking for quiet in the Canavese area, a short distance from Turin and Masino Castle. The in-house restaurant, bar and room service complete an offer designed for multi-day stays, while the garden and bicycle rental service encourage excursions through the surrounding hills.

The rooms at Sina Villa Matilde occupy both the historic wing and the more recent wing of the villa and share features such as air conditioning, a private bathroom with courtesy set, flat-screen TV and minibar, along with the garden or inner courtyard view typical of most of the rooms. Sizes range from the 25 sqm of the Superior Room to the 52 sqm of the more spacious suites, offering solutions suited to both couple stays and larger families.
Those looking for extra comfort can choose between the Suite with a whirlpool tub, the 2-Level Suite with an independent living area on the lower floor, or the Junior Suite designed for families with children. Some room types, such as the King Room with Balcony and the Suite with Balcony, look directly onto the park through their own private balcony, while others offer beds configurable as double or twin upon request.
