28/04/2026: Historic and excellent hotel/restaurant/bar in Corio.
I still remember it being run by the parents of the current owners (Bruno and Mrs. Lia) when I was a boy in the early 1970s.
I recommend it.
30/03/2026: We stayed here for three nights. This inn is located in Corio, a small, quiet village about 30 km from Turin. This makes it the ideal choice for those seeking relaxation, away from the chaos of the city, especially if you have a car (otherwise, getting around is a bit difficult).
The restaurant's food is very good and excellent value.
The room is very nice and welcoming. I really appreciated the electric kettle in the room, a simple but very convenient detail. The bathroom also pleasantly surprised me: the hot water comes on immediately, something that's not a given and, personally, I haven't found even in hotels in large cities.
The structure is simple and consistent with its surroundings, but precisely for this reason, the value of the experience transcends the small details.
An added bonus is the staff. They were kind, attentive, and above all, human. In particular, one evening I had booked dinner but let them know I wasn't feeling well. I was experiencing severe anxiety and couldn't eat, but my mother could. I asked if it was possible to have something simple like a toasted sandwich or a sandwich delivered to our room, but they were truly helpful and welcoming: they reassured us, telling us to choose where we wanted to sit (at the bar or in the dining room) and to order whatever we wanted, even just a herbal tea in my case.
They didn't make me feel uncomfortable or inadequate in any way; on the contrary, they put me completely at ease, allowing me to remain calmly at my table without pressure. This is certainly not a predictable attitude, and it speaks volumes about their dedication to their customers.
I should also add that they often organize very nice events: we were lucky enough to be there on a Saturday evening when there was a truly unique event, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
A place where you can sense care, hospitality, and respect. Recommended for those seeking tranquility and a genuine atmosphere.
