Description
Aprile offers warm hospitality of a bed and breakfast or residence basis in a charming old building right in the heart of Turin’s historical centre. Our home is in the Quadrilatero Romano, inside a historical building designed during the time of Juvarra, one of Turin’s most famous architects. This quarter not only boasts bars, clubs and workshops of designers and fashion stylists but also old craftsman’s bottegas, historical cafès and the city’s most beautiful churches and monuments. A stay in Aprile evokes the atmosphere of an old Torinese house with its generous spaces, hidden courtyards and the sound of the bells of the many baroque churches nearby.
From the windows of Aprile one can watch the sun setting over the rooftops and enjoy the spectacular view of the Basilica della Consolata, designed by Filippo Juvarra, and the adjacent roman bell-tower.
An accurate and careful restoration of this historical space has left intact the extraordinary fascination of its ample rooms and ceilings with open beams.
The wooden frames of the roof have been restored in line with their history. Antique parquet floors were recovered and treated with beeswax polish, the walls instead with limewash and decorated with natural pigments. All work was carried out following the principles of ecological architecture: the exclusive use of natural materials, no synthetic glues and varnishes and the revival of traditional craftsmanship.
Guests will find here three independent rooms with bathrooms en suite, each with its own privately accessible door with key. The rooms each have their own personality yet have certain elements in common: old wooden furniture restored with taste and care and beds handmade without glue or metallic parts and completed with craftsman made futon mattresses in organic cotton. Alongside tradition sits modernity: suspended ceilings, raised sleeping zones, panoramic windows open to the sky and contemporary artwork on the walls.
A fascinating hospitality of great comfort to even the most discerning guest: this is the Aprile experience.
Breakfast is provided by Neo Head Café- a little jewel that we love to make known to our guests. Housed in the antique private chapel of one of Filippo Juvarra’s baroque edifices, and delightfully minature with its circular room, the Neo Head not only offers a delicious breakfast but reading material of various kinds, magazines on travel, fashion and trends and a magazine, “Neo Head”, dedicated to the cities of the world. Late sleepers will appreciate the elastic hours for the serving of breakfast, you are welcome from eight in the morning to eight at night.
On Sunday mornings guests can instead enjoy the fresh cakes and pastries at the Cremeria “Mondello” (Slow Food Prize 2005). With its splendid view of piazza Emanuele Filiberto you will be invited to savour the best of a lazy turinese morning.

I'm Cristina, and I started running a B&B in 2002, such a great and wonderful adventure! I'm in love with my city and I'm always glad to show it to my guests- just come and enjoy our house on the roofs of Torino, so close to the sky, its amazing panoramic views and its pure Italian flair. Yoùre going to meet Ugo, my husband, and our kid Ernesto (who is supposed to spek English with guests;)). Expect to find a good Italian coffee and some chat in our kitchen, good tips for a nice restaurant, and a helping hand for any of your needs.
I'm a passionate reader and our rich bookshelves are always at your disposal, as well as our sunny balcony. Welcome to Torino!
Sono Cristina, e il mio lavoro ad Aprile è una passione iniziata nel 2002. Amo molto la mia città, e sono sempre felice di presentarla ai viaggiatori che arrivano sino a qui, nella nostra casa sui tetti di Torino. Troverete Ugo, il mio compagno, il nostro bambino Ernesto: troverete sempre un caffè e due chiacchiere, un consiglio su dove cenare o come prenotare un ingresso a teatro, troverete molti libri e un balcone fiorito. Vi aspetto, perché ogni nuovo ospite porta con sé nuove storie, e spero che il vostro soggiorno ad Aprile diventi una vostra nuova bella storia da ricordare.

Area Quadrilatero
Aprile is situated in Turin's historical centre - the Quadrilatero Romano- the heart of ancient Turin defined by the roman wall.
Here is found the Basilica della Consolata, the cathedral which houses the sacred shroud - the Duomo- and all the important museums. Piazza Castello and Palazzo Reale are a stone's throw away. Forget your car- you're in the centre!
Take a stroll around the incredible market of Porta Palazzo- the largest in Europe -, and, if it's a Saturday, browse the antiques and bric -a brac stalls of the Balun, the antiques fair where you can find everything.
This is also the most fashionable area of the city: in its streets, many of which are for pedestrians only, old craftsman's workshops live alongside artist's and fashion designer's studios, design consultancies, historic cafès and cutting - edge bars for an aperitif.
It is not by chance that many films have been shot in these streets.
Later the night life starts: traditional and modern restaurants await, many different bars to while away the small hours, little shows and open air concerts and many new and different cultural initiatives.

What can I say, the welcome and hospitality were magnificent from Cristina, the manager, she was immediately available and very kind, in addition to being very knowledgeable about the city. Excellent rooms even for a couple, the location in the heart of Turin is very convenient. I don't want to exaggerate, but I preferred Cristina's breakfast much more than that of many 3-star hotels in the city. I will gladly return!

Optimal location for exploring Turin, close to the station and well integrated into the historical context of the center. It is a pity that there is no elevator, but perhaps it would have been inappropriate for the building. The owner is more than available, very kind, friendly, and approachable. Fantastic! Cleaning and maintenance of the rooms impeccable. Breakfast is more than good and abundant. A little more coffee would not be bad. The only remark I have is that it would have been nice to find some small courtesy items such as shampoo and soap in addition to what was there. Highly recommended for everything.

The answer from the host:
Buongiorno Mariele, grazie per la recensione. Volevo soltanto dirvi: in bagno trovate sia shampoo che bagnoschiuma e sapone, c’è tutto- magari non l’avete visto. Inoltre in tutte le stanze sono presentii dischetti struccanti, cotton fioc, sapone e nei cassetti c’è un kit per il pronto soccorso. Mi dispiace perché il contenitore per i prodotti da doccia l’ho decorato io… La mia vena di artista non è stata nemmeno vista! Sono quei barattoli in vetro scuro. Comunque è stato stupendo avervi con noi, grazie e a presto! Cristina

This was a perfect place to stay for my stop over! It is about a 15 bus ride to the BnB. The room was very clean and well furnished. The bedroom had a lift open window with an awesome view of the church. The church bell does ring all night, but it was not an issue. The area is packed with restaurants and bars. Christine was an amazing host! Very nice and very giving. She made me feel very welcome and we shared breakfast and conversation in the morning. 10/10 this place was so great!

Owner with great experience, very kind, helpful, flexible in check-in and check-out times, attentive to customer needs. Delightful attic with a view over the rooftops of Turin in the heart of the quadrilateral that allows you to walk to all the main attractions, very abundant and varied breakfast, only downside is the third floor without an elevator which was not a problem for us but could be for someone else.

My stay at 'Aprile' facility, with my family, was absolutely positive. Mrs. Cristina is an extraordinary woman, welcoming, helpful, and sweet. The facility is centrally located, in a side street off Corso Garibaldi leading to Piazza Castello. It is housed in an ancient building, well-kept and quiet (no elevator, on the third floor), very convenient for walking around everywhere. The breakfast is typical of an average family: cookies, milk, coffee, various jams and preserves, juices, and yogurt. It is served in the room by Mrs. Cristina, at the time agreed with us, on a tray. A very simple breakfast. The only thing that didn't make me feel well was the bathroom linen. All towels had a bad smell. I couldn't understand if it was the detergent used or if they were not adequately washed. It was like this throughout the entire vacation. The same goes for the bed sheets.

The answer from the host:
Rosanna, l’odore che può aver sentito è senz’altro dei disinfettanti a ossigeno e Clorina che abbiamo iniziato a usare specie in questi periodi di epidemie .. non credo di aver bisogno di dire che gli asciugamani sono lavati correttamente, certamente a volte può rimanere un’impressione come di sala medica. Però per noi è un motivo di sicurezza ed igiene in più.

Perfect location to visit Turin and in an area with plenty of dinner options. Negatives: 4th floor without an elevator and if you are over 1.70 in height because the room has a loft where the bed is located. However, the kindness of the owner reduces the discomfort.

Our host was very welcoming with her good humor and advice. However, the attic room without air conditioning is located on the 4th floor without an elevator. Furthermore, it overlooks a very noisy street especially during part of the night. The breakfast is a bit basic: Lipton tea and biscuits. The value for money is not very favorable.

Colette, bonjour. Je suis toujour surprise quand un hote choisit un hotel selon ses desirs et se complaint pour les meme raison de sa choix. Vous nous avez choisi par la description: on est dans le centre historique de la ville, qui est pietonne jour et nuit: donc pas de bruit de voitures, mais les gens qui se promenent dans le quartier plus vivant et à la mode de la ville. Turin ne manque pas d'hotels dans la periferie, òu sans difficultès vous allez trouver, la soir, des rues completement desertes, sans bars ni restaurant, ni humaines qui vont disturber vos oreilles. Et c'est donc la periferie que je vais vous conseiller pour la prochaine fois. Vous nous avez choisi pour notre choix ecologiques: bien, je vais vous dire que NON, nous n'avons pas de l'air conditionnèe, on va pas refraichir les chambres en surchauffant le monde entier. Vous avez trouvè dans votre chambre un grand eventail, mais si vous n'aviez pas l'idèe fixe de tenir completement fermeès le fenetres, la chambre serait encore plus fraiche! Et enfin, parlons du petit dejeuner. Je vous ai apportè, avec un service en chambre, votre petit dejeuner chaque matin, et le dernier jour vous avez obtenu un service en chambre à 6 HEURES DU MATIN -allez voir si in n'importe quel hotel vous avez ce service, et grauitement en plus! Notre petit dej comprenait pour vous cafè, the noir, et un special traitement "chocolat chaude" pour votre mari (et bien qui vous complainez du chaud en boivant chocolat à 80 degrès!) : chaque matin vous avez trouvè marmalade faite à la maison, beurre, pain fraiche, toast, focaccia, Nutella, fromage frais, une creme de fruit, yogurt; et chaque jour une tarte faite à la maison. Le biscuits dont vous parlez viennet de la patisserie Tamborini, une des plus celebres de la ville. Et chaque jour vous avez completement vidè le plateau, vous avez tout pris pour remplir votre sac et apporter tout le menu avec vous pour, peut etre, sauvegarder les sous de dejeuner. Vous savez que ce comportement n'est pas tolerè in n'importe quel hotel: mais j'ai fait semblant de ne pas voir le pillage du buffet que vous avez pratiquè pour une entière semaine.,, Et j'aurais oubliè cette votre façon de vivre et se porter, si vous n'aviez pas laissè cette opinion. J'adore mon travail, mais c'est le gens comme vous que me font dire, parfois: je ferme pour un mois, CA SUFFIT!!!

We had a really great time, pampered! Mrs. Cristina was very courteous, friendly, and very kind! The location of the b&b is excellent because it is located in the Roman quadrilateral, the heart of the cutest places in Turin. A beautiful vacation.

The very kind Cristina welcomed and took care of us. For those with good legs, the 80 steps will be a good workout. I must say that breakfast in the room is not the ideal solution for us. However, the location is excellent.

Excellent location and the owner is wonderful. Be careful when parking because Piazza Emanuele Filiberto is managed by the company APCOA and you cannot use applications like easypark or similar because you will get fined (as it happened to us).

The answer from the host:
Cara Manuela, grazie per queste vostre parole così gentili. Saprete certamente che piacere è stato avervi con noi qui ad Aprile: è stato bello conoscervi e anche avere il tempo per scambiare due chiacchiere insieme. Sono sicura che la mia città vi ha saputo incantare, e sono felice che il vostro soggiorno qui con noi ad Aprile entri a far parte dei vostri ricordi belli di questo vostro vostro fine settimana torinese. Mi spiace tantissimo per la multa che avete preso: in effetti il parcheggio sotterraneo della piazza è gestito privatamente, avrei dovuto informarmi meglio su che sistema di parcheggio avevate scelto e darvi un giusto consiglio per non farvi sbagliare! Mi scuso anche a nome di quei **** dell'APCOA (scherzo naturalmente- essendo il posteggio qui vicinissimo conosciamo il guardiano, il signor Dario), e ricordate che a titolo di parziale risarcimento se tornerete al bed and breakfast Aprile il 10% di sconto è subito per voi, oltre a una dose industriale di festeggiamenti per il vostro ritorno a Torino. Vi ringrazio ancora per averci scelto e averci fatto godere della vostra compagnia. Un abbraccio dalla vostra Cristina!

The room where I stayed was on two floors and from the bed you could see the stars and the moon through the roof window. The kitchen corner was very convenient and allowed me to decide whether to eat at home or outside. The shower bathroom was functional and very clean. I had a great time and Cristina is an exceptional host!

This is a wonderful place to stay, and Cristina, the owner, is a delight - full of good humor and pleasant as can be. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. The building is old, but the room I was in had been completely redone - all modern with the exception of the wooden floors which had been sanded and varnished and the ceiling with its old beams. A pleasure to come back to.

Our stay at the B&B Aprile was very pleasant thanks to the warm and lively hospitality of Cristina, a helpful and welcoming host ready to provide directions and useful tips for visiting the city. The room was spacious and tastefully furnished, with a well-equipped practical wardrobe. Abundant and very pleasant breakfast: the children really enjoyed the stay!

We stayed at this B&B on the occasion of the Shroud exhibition. We had a very good time. The structure has a somewhat bohemian charm on the rooftops of Turin. Our attic room with wooden beams was very cozy even though a bit small. Good cleanliness and comfortable bed. I found the sound of the bells of the beautiful Consolata church right behind the B&B very nice. The owner Cristina is very welcoming and helpful. The only downside of the structure is the lack of an elevator (there are many stairs to climb as it is on the fourth floor) and the breakfast that needs to be done at a nearby bar. The area is very nice, close to the center and full of cafes and restaurants.

I stayed at the Bed and Breakfast Aprile on March 6, 2015, during a business trip. Upon arrival, I was greeted by the hostess, the fantastic and cheerful Cristina, as a dear friend. I had a great time, excellent cleanliness and furnishing of the room, cozy, spacious, and colorful. I found the location very convenient especially for its proximity to the historic center.

Beautiful historic building in the center of Turin, a short walk from Piazza Castello. Lovely apartment, very well furnished. Some disappointment with the organization and reception: we did not appreciate that breakfast was at a nearby bar (I prefer staying in bed and breakfasts for the family atmosphere and having breakfast at a bar makes everything colder). We did not find any city maps at the bed and breakfast, and we were not given many recommendations for meals, exhibitions, or things to do. Some difficulties with organization and communication during check-out (however, also partly our fault).

Warm welcome from Cristina - clean and spacious room with lots of new towels at our disposal. The big market and Palazzo Madama are just around the corner and many other tourist attractions are within walking distance. During summer weekends it could get a bit noisy, due to the nightlife/bars, but we closed the window and slept well. Breakfast on Sundays is at a nearby bar - it was ok. Definitely a very good address in Turin, and we will return.

The B&B Aprile was very nice accommodation, spacious room, good bed with nice linen, fine towels and possibility to cook water and have tea in the room. The room was on the fourth floor, some voices might be heard from the narrow small street down. Just close the windows and everything was okay. The innkeeper lady was very friendly. The breakfast was in a small café around the corner and it was good and the place nice.

Unforgettable breakfast indeed as it was so bad. The cappuccino was not good, a single croissant of poor quality, a very ordinary toast. We had this breakfast only once and took the following ones in the nearby bar which was very good and inexpensive.
