Getting There

Arriving by plane

The Sandro Pertini (Turin, TRN) Airport (also known as "Torino Caselle airport") is located in Caselle Torinese and it is about 16 km away, north direction from Turin centre area. It is linked to the city of Turin by a shuttle bus service, which has several stops enroute including Porta Nuova and Porta Susa railway stations (one-way fare: 6,50 €, journey time: 40 minutes).
For information and timetable confirmation: SADEM Bus Shuttle.

From the airport to city, the bus terminal is at arrival level and timetable is from 06h05m a.m. to 00h05m p.m. Tickets can be bought to tourist bureau, ticket office, ticket machine (Arrivals level), or aboard (+0,50 € extra-charge). From the city to the airport, the bus terminal is at Porta Nuova railway station, Corso Vittorio Emanuele II n. 57/A and timetable is from 05h15m a.m. to 11h15m p.m. Tickets can be bought to bars near Porta Nuova or aboard (+0,50 € extra-charge).

Caselle Torinese is easily reach also by car, following the Turin north ring road as far as the Borgaro Torinese exit and joining the Torino-Caselle highway network that directly leads to the entrance of the airport. In front of the entrance a multilevel parkings and offices of the most important rental car are available.

If you prefer to take a taxi from the airport there will be taxis outside the exit or we have arranged a convention with the CTA company (www.cta-to.com). They will charge 35 +IVA (VAT) Euros per taxi from the airport to the Hotel. You need to send Name, number of travelers, number of bags, arrival time and flight to the email gaiabds@cta-to.com or cta@cta-to.com, they will have a car waiting. The desk is the first kiosk on the right after customs. Price wise this is a little more than the standard taxi fare, however if more than one person is arriving at the same time they will organize to put you in the same taxi and you can split the cost. You should request the GaiaBDs convention.

Those arriving at Milan Malpensa there is a direct bus to Porta Susa, Torino (http://www.sadem.it/media/5191/000020.pdf).
