Hotel Torino

It says on the trip advisor site and the hotel website that breakfast is included. I was charged $16 a day for the worst breakfast in Italy. When I mentioned this as i was paying my bill they said they could do nothing but offer me a cup of coffee. Poor customer service. The cleaning staff was the best as the room was spotless. I hate to be misled.

Party of four (two couples) stayed at Hotel Torino in November. It was very easy to find for a foreigner driving first time in Italy. Perfect parking space in the basement, perfect receptionist, perfect breakfast, perfect location for first and sadly a short visit to Parma. Very spacious room with a large balcony and reasonable off season prices.

The Hotel Torino is about 11 or 12 minutes walk from the Parma central railway station and a pleasant walk as well. The hotel is right in the centre of town, the historical sites and shopping, restaurants and bars all being very close. A small hotel badged as 3 stars. Check-in was easy, the receptionist was cheerful and helpful, I just wish I could say the same for the room cleaners and the breakfast staff. The room was very basic, Yes, it had ample plug points, wifi worked, the bed was OK but not great and there was a small TV, but the fittings and furnishings are very simple, indeed they appeared really cheap. A hard seat and plain desk, no pictures on the walls whatsoever and the bathroom was tiny and yet somehow a toilet, bidet, sink and shower had been squeezed in. I felt like I’d be better lathering myself in oil to squeeze between the sink and the wall! And the shower was like a coffin,....for a child! There was no coffee machine nor kettle with instant coffee/tea. Nor was there a fridge. Breakfast is a fairly simple affair compared with the many other 3 star hotels that I have stayed at in Italy. A few cold meats and cheeses, several of types of bread (but nothing fancy) and just one type of croissant. There were cakes, three choices of cereals, three fruit juices and a commercial coffee machine. The food tasted fine, there just wasn't a great deal of choice. For the price and considering the central location, I would say that this hotel is probably reasonable value for money......just don’t expect anything luxurious nor a great breakfast.

Hotel Torino is located in the center of Parma. It is as serious and thorough as the city after which it is named. Design, furniture in calm colors. Fans of burlesque and bright life could probably call it "boring". The only adventure that awaits you here is the LED lighting on the street that the hotel looks at. But after all, most tourists need a restful sleep first of all? This is fine here. Conservatism is never cheap, so accommodation cannot be called budget, but there are no grounds for exorbitant prices either...Probably this hotel has a lot of regular customers? In general, everything is like in Turin: measured, quiet, without adventures.

Staff was good, breakfast was good, parking was available. Bed was okay, not great. But stay away from Parma, don’t go, rudest city in all of Italy, Parma lives to rip people off, disrespect, outright rude, never in 30 years of traveling Europe have I ever been treated so horribly, stay away, far away. Hotel staff were good tho. Please stay away from Parma, go to Modena and Bologna

This is a lovely little hotel with excellent location and staff. It is humble, but very comfortable and I had a neat little room with terrace. Breakfast was very good and the staff in the morning was very accommodating and kind. Traveling alone is sometimes challenging, but Hotel Torino made it a breeze. BTW, the location is smack in the middle of everything - so easy to walk out the door and get to everything. Thank you Hotel Torino!!

Hotel is in a nice location, however there is a lot the be desired. Poor air conditioning hard beds, and breakfast isn’t included. So don’t expect it, they will say it’s free until you eat and then they charge you. Stay away there is better options in this beautiful city of Parma.

Great location just a couple blocks off the main square. Good service, and clean room. We did not pay for the breakfast, opting to walk to a nearby Cafe instead. It was a very good price for a mid-range budget.
