    A friend and I spent a week in this lovely B&B in Turin this October. We were there for a mix of pleasure and business and really needed some peace and quiet and a comfortable oasis from our busy days out and about. We couldn't have chosen better. You really must stay here if you find yourself in Turin and it's available. Because the B&B has free parking, we were able to rent a car and drive from the Milan airport with no trouble at all and safely park our car in the center of the city (a true rarity in Turin). FYI, it is about 90 minutes from the airport. From our arrival, our hosts, Roberta and Enrico, were friendly engaging, and the perfect balance between attentive and respectful. Enrico helped us carry in our bags, gave us a tour of the space and answered all our questions. Exhausted from jet lag, we collapsed into our respective beds and napped away the afternoon. I chose the Saffron room, with a bright yellow wall and en suite bathroom with a shower and bidet. My friend stayed in Cinnamon, with a warm brown wall and a full bath across the private hall with a tub and separate shower and bidet. We had the run of the ground floor of the building, with a locked door on our apartment and a nice living room/dining room in addition to our bedrooms and baths. The breakfasts surpassed our expectations by a mile. Prepared with care and attention to our dietary preferences and total willingness to deal with my companion's very restrictive diet, Enrico made everything himself. From the pastries and omelets to the jams and breads, it was all his work, and he is amazing. Truly worthy of a turn on the Great Italian Bake Off (if that's a thing, and it should be). In good weather, you can eat your breakfast in the lovely walled garden in the company of Ridge the cat. The location is across the Po River from the centro of the town. You can easily walk the 10-15 minutes along and across the river or hail a taxi using the very helpful apps the city is using now. We did a mix of both and also drove into the centro one afternoon after touring wine country in the Piemonte nearby. Every day, we took in the sites, like the Egyptian Museum and the Piazzas. Every evening, we had aperitivo in a piazza and then wandered the centro choosing a restaurant at random. When our week was finished, we tearfully bid goodbye to Enrico, Roberta and Ridge and headed home with the certainty that we will return to visit them again soon.

    This was our third stay there. Roberta and Enrico have two bedrooms, a shared living space, and a dining area on one floor of their home. You can rent one room or, as when we traveled with our son, both. The rooms are comfortable and spotless and the hospitality is flawless. Roberta is extremely helpful and friendly. Conversing with her is a pleasure. The star of any stay at Colazione da August is Enrico's breakfast service. He took special courses so that he could provide food to the public and he indulges his passion for cooking and baking to the benefit of their guests. If you have something special that you like, he will try to get it or make it. Just let him know. The place never disappoints, is in a good location, and is probably the finest place to stay in Torino. To top it off, the pricing is quite reasonable. One of my all-time faves!

    10 points are definitely going to Roberta! So authentic as you are. Parking included and a very convenient location for an easy and nice walk to the city center. Surrounded by local restaurants and purchase/service locations Roberta is super funny, friendly and very lovely, she's there to help you with good tips and tricks for an authentic visit of Turin. Easy to communicate as she speaks many languages. For breakfast you cannot wish more, fresh prepared food, local ingredients, no matter what you wish... savory or sweet..Enrico is a Master Chief, thanks for all your work! You are great and you are doing a great work! Hope to see you again!

    The best B&B in Italy. Perfect breakfasts, free parking , close to the city centre. And above all - hosts are the most friendly people I’ve ever met. And the cat too ;)

    A great hidden gem in Turin!! The little garden is lovely to take the super yummy and generous home-cooked breakfast there (everybody already mentioned it but we wanted to validate!), the rooms and bathrooms are spacious (we had the entire space for our family, our 2 children in one room and us in the other, plus the common living-room area, very practical). The service is just great and very accommodating, you can feel they just want our stay to be the best possible! Plus you can park your car for free and it is very close to the city center, and well served by bus. All in one, an amazing stay there!

    Best bed and breakfast in Turin! I was already excited when I booked online and saw the photos, but the moment we arrived Into the house, it left us speechless. Huge room, a beautiful garden, sparkling clean toilet, and of course, a tasty and warm breakfast every morning, with local and fresh ingredients. Thank you to Roberta and Enrico for making our stay in Turin a dream! We will definitely come back

    Colazione da Augusta is wonderful place to stayed in Torino. Roberta and Enrico are great people and very friendly. The place is so cleaned and the food is soooo good. Enrico prepared fresh home made breakfast every morning. The service is the best we had. Furthermore you don’t have to payed for the parking they allowed park your car inside the courtyard. I missed already that place.

    We absolutely loved our stay at Roberta and Enrico’s B&B. The main part of Turin is within easy walking distance, and the hosts are warm, generous and happy to help. The rooms are big, very tastefully decorated, and super clean. Plus: Enrico’s homemade breakfast is off-the-charts delicious. We stayed with our two young kids and will return in a heartbeat if we head back to Torino.

    I spent a week at the Colazione da Augusta with a dear friend in October 2017, on a trip that mixed business with tourism. The B&B is a paradise of quiet comfort. Enrico and Roberta are warm, delightful hosts, and Enrico is a gifted baker. The garden is private oasis. There is a charming cat, who lives exclusively in the garden and does not come inside. My friend and I both loved Colazione da Augusta: it was a wonderful week. Breakfast was almost overwhelming every day. Every possible care was taken to present breakfast foods I could eat despite my food allergies. I was extremely grateful: I cannot eat any grains, and most Italian breakfast foods are off limits. I explained to Enrico what I could eat, and there was no problem. The location is *so much more restful* than staying across the river. We walked to the touristic neighborhoods most days, and often took a taxi back to the Colazione after supper. We enjoyed the neighborhood very much: it's not at all touristic, yet very close and convenient to everything in Torino. The neighborhood is also well-served with busses. Because I was doing some business, the secure internet connection in the B&B was essential, free, and much appreciated. My friend and I were also pleased with the free, securely gated parking. Once we priced out the bus fare between Malpensa Airport and Torino, we realized it was scarcely more expensive to rent a car. Free & secure parking is rare. We actually saved money that way, and had a more enjoyable trip: some of the best wine-producing areas in Europe are within easy driving distance of the Colazione da Augusta. We drove to Alba to taste wine, and to eat truffles and nougat in season. Divine! Torino is a grossly underestimated tourist destination. Anyone who likes Egyptian art would adore visiting the Egyptian Museum in Torino, and there are too many other tourist attractions in Torino to enumerate easily. I have visited Italy a number of times over the past half-century, although this was my first trip to Torino. I'll be returning for sure, and I definitely plan to stay at the Colazione da Augusta again, it is a delightful B&B.

    One of best B&B I have ever been at. Roberta and Enrico are very nice and friendly people. Premises are great and clean, breakfast is georgius. Will be happy to return on next visit to Turin.

    We were at Colazione da Augusta during our honeymoon and had the most wonderful time here. It was one of the highlights of our trip! Not only the city of Turin is amazing, also the stay at Roberta and Enrico of course. The b&b is at a great location, the rooms are clean, the garden is a great place to hang and find comfort in the shadows, and to top it off the delicious breakfast we got every morning was made with a lot of love! We also loved the Google Maps list of places you must visit, personally created by Roberta and Enrico. Thank you very much for this wonderful experience! We would definitely revisit your b&b whenever we are in Turin.

    Highly recommend this B&B. Robbie and Enrico are lovely, the rooms are spacious and clean and you immediately feel at home. Highlight is the breakfast with handmade Turinese specialities!
