The hotel was built at the end of the 18th Century. It was also used as a post office. For many years the hotel lodged travellers coming to Turin on business, to carry out diplomatic missions, to study, or to participate in artistic and cultural events tied to Turin's role as the capital of Regno di Sardegna. Clients can also use the hotel's spacious parking area.

The hotel, located right in the historical quarter of Turin, is easily reachable using public transportation and provides a unique opportunity to take a stroll in the fascinating Quadrilatero Romano.
