The gem of this town is of course the Town Hall Square, or Piazza del Comune: the cathedral, the comune and the battistero are all located there, and I think it's one of the most beautiful squares in Italy, even if it's not famous.

Citadines Bastille Marais is an apart'hotel centrally located in the interesting Bastille neighbourhood.

Its apartments are big and fully furnished, there's free high-speed internet in the hall and Place De Vosges in Le Marais is a five-minute walk.

Prices are, well, remember that you're in Paris! But they're not too high compared to hotels, and you can save money cooking meals in the kitchen.

Just reopened after a long time under refurbishment, the palazzo attracts many tourists in Turin.

The palace was built between the middle ages and the 17th century.

It's a very beautiful building and I like the big baroque style rooms on the first floor, where you can also find a cafe. There's also a room with red modern sofas to have a little rest after the visit.

Mood is a bookstore in a lovely square in central Turin, and it's put together a bookstore and a cafe so you can sit down and read the books, while having an espresso or an aperitivo. The interior is modern with an industrial feel.

Via Garibaldi is a long pedestrian shopping street in central Turin, and it's worth a visit just for the beautiful buildings.

There are high street stores along the street, and a branch of the Japanese chain Muji.
