when my husband announced he had booked a romantic wkend away for valentines in a 4* hotel i was over the moon having got 3 children under the age of 10, i felt this was going to be fab!!
i looked up the hotel on the internet, and all pictures looked nice (but don't they always!!)
when we arrived there the first felling i had was that it was very quiet. the guy on reception was'nt very hospitable.
got to our room and opened the door to find a set of steps down to the bed which i nearly fell down!!
the double bed was 2 singles put together, the tv had 3 chanels, all italian, and the bathroom had a hairdryer on the wall with wires sticking out....oh, and no tea/coffee making facilities!!!!!!!!
when we asked at reception for a coffee he replied 'i have no-one here to make one' then when we asked about the bar he replied 'the bar is never open unless there is a conference'.
the second night when we arrived back in we asked about coffee, and he said 'well, i can't make it can i'
this is the worst hotel we have ever stayed in and my rating is lower than 2*
DO NOT USE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
to top it off , no hot water coming out of the shower!!
we will never go there again.

This is definitely a 2* hotel and the worst hotel we have ever stayed to say the least. In fact we’ve stayed in 2* hotels better than that. We paid reasonable amount of money for it. We booked a double room and they provided us with a single room with two single beds put together to look like a double. The room was so small and basic we could hardly move around. The only entertainment was a 14’ TV only with Italian channels. The safe wasn’t attached anywhere so someone could take it anyway, no much of a safe. On the first day was not hot water in the hotel so we couldn’t have a shower. There was no space to put our luggage other than the corridor between the bed and the desk, which made movement around the room very awkward. Receptionists were unhelpful and they have done nothing about our complaints.
The bar downstairs was never open so couldn’t have even a drink or a coffee in the hotel. Breakfast was poor and very basic. Avoid.

My wife and I have just returned from Rome after staying there 3 days. We had a great time seeing all the sights and enjoying all the good wine and food Rome has to offer. Even though the weather was not great it did not spoil our holiday. The only thing we were not happy about was the hotel.

Hotel Torino says its a 4star hotel but in no way does it meet any 4 star requirements. We would say it is more like a 2/3 star. The staff are not friendly at all, they do not help in carrying your suitcase. They do not give any advice on tours, food, nothing. We had to carry the suitcase up some stairs and into a small (and I mean small) lift. The hotel is very old which is ok but the rooms are very small. Clean but very small. We had a double room but the bed was 2 twin beds put together. The bathroom was horrible and was not cleaned on one of the days. The shower is so small you can walk in but you cannot move around or shower properly. You can also hear heavy water pouring down the walls. When one of the above floors use their toilets you can hear the water coming down. The TV has only 1 channel in English and there was only 1 socket in the room to charge your phone, camera etc. which already and 2 extension plugs to it.

The only good thing about the hotel was the location. It is less then a couple of minutes walk to the main Terminal station. You can walk to most of the main sites and there are plenty of shops, restaurants, snack bars etc seconds away from the hotel.

For the location we would next time stay across the road at the Best Western.

I have very good memories of hotel Torino. The service was very polite, and the receptionist was very skilled with different languages. The rooms were basic but neat, and there was a balcony in the room. We stayed at the second highest story, so it wasn´t that loud... The street beneath was quite noisy. The breakfast was very good. The hotel is very close to Termini station, so its location is quite good. I prefered walking in Rome from one place to another, so I liked the location. Via Principe Amedeo can be informed to be as a "restless" street, but on the part of the street where the hotel is situated, it is safe. There are quite a few hotels around it. But walk along the street further, it becomes quite different. No problem daytime, though.
