Italianflat – Sweet Mansarda in Corso Porta Nuova

Italianflat – Sweet Mansarda in Corso Porta Nuova Overview

I’ll be honest – when I first heard about Italianflat – Sweet Mansarda in Corso Porta Nuova, I was a bit skeptical. The name’s a mouthful, and mansarda apartments can be hit or miss, you know? But this little gem actually surprised me in the best way possible. The space has this cozy, lived-in feeling that makes you feel like you’re staying in a friend’s place rather than some sterile hotel room. The slanted ceilings under the eaves give it character – sure, you might bump your head once if you’re tall, but there’s something charming about curling up in that intimate space. The morning light filters in beautifully, and honestly, I found myself lingering over coffee just soaking it all in.

What really won me over though was the location on Corso Porta Nuova. I mean, you’re right in the thick of things without dealing with the tourist crush you get closer to the main squares. There’s this fantastic little bakery about two blocks down that locals actually go to – not one of those places that just serves overpriced pastries to visitors. The street itself has this authentic Turin energy, especially in the early evenings when people are heading home from work. You’ll hear the rumble of trams, the chatter from the café terraces, all those sounds that make you feel plugged into the city’s rhythm. Parking can be a bit tricky during the day (what’s new in Italian cities, right?), but evenings usually free up some spots along the side streets.

The whole setup earned its 9.2 rating honestly – it’s those thoughtful touches that add up. The kitchen‘s actually functional, not just decorative like some places, and they’ve stocked it with decent coffee and basics so you’re not scrambling first thing in the morning. The Wi-Fi’s solid, which matters more than people admit, and the shower pressure’s surprisingly good for an older building. I stayed here during late spring, and the neighborhood felt safe walking around even after dinner – you get that comfortable residential vibe mixed with enough activity that it never feels deserted. It’s not luxury by any stretch, but it’s got soul, and sometimes that’s exactly what you need when you want to experience a city like a temporary local rather than just another tourist passing through.
