What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
There’s an air of austerity here that reminds you of the building’s original function. Standard rooms are on the small side, and the decor is simple.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Arcaded streets around the piazza lead past local wine bars and antique shops down to the banks of the Po.
The rooms
Oak floors and carved wood furniture keep the bedrooms understated. Tall windows look out across the piazza or down into the courtyard.
The gym
The top-floor fitness room sits beneath exposed wooden beams, equipped with cardio gear, weights, and a Pilates reformer.
Restaurant
Corte dei Limoni
Breakfast tables line the glazed arcade, opening onto the central cobblestone courtyard among potted lemon trees.
Restaurant
Ristorante Carlina
The dining room serves regional Piedmontese dishes, set under halo chandeliers beside tall illuminated racks of local wine.
How it began

The building was established in 1682 as the Regio Albergo di Virtù, training impoverished youths in practical trades for over two centuries.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
