We were warmly greeted by the front desk host. He is a friendly and very kind person. The night before we left we informed him that we had to leave very early the next morning and that we wouldn't be around for the breakfast. He put out the food and pastries and juices, and prepared us cappuccinos before we left even though it was an hour before the official breakfast started.
The room itself was nice--larger than most, there was a safe, and electrical outlets to each side of the queen sized bed. The room was spotless. The shower was strong with plenty of hot water. The breakfast was small but with a great variety of food--bread and cheese/meats for a savory breakfast, a toaster, freshly baked cornetti (croissants), hard boiled eggs, several tarts and cakes, juices, water, and coffee made to order.
The hotel is perfectly located, right along the main drag (Corso Cavour), and fairly close to the funicular drop off point. The desk host gave us excellent restaurant recommendations when we arrived. There is parking after 8pm in front of the hotel, but you need to check with staff about availability. Otherwise there is a pay garage and several lots nearby.
Overall, a stellar
