Where to stay in Santa Rita
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
Beds in Santa Rita are few, so a visitor with business in the district generally books in central Turin and rides out to it. Turin holds the hotels. Crocetta, Cenisia and Mirafiori Sud carry the same standing on Turin's district map, so a visitor comparing them ends up making the same decision: a room in the centre of the city, and a short journey out to whichever of these names the day requires.

About Santa Rita
What are the main landmarks in Santa Rita?
Santa Rita's record lists no monument. The name itself is the district's oldest marker, Saint Rita in English, and it does the work that a church or a tower does elsewhere in Turin, fixing a stretch of the city in the minds of the people who live and work along it. Sightseeing happens in the centre.
What Turin shows visitors is gathered there, not out along these streets, so anyone reaching Santa Rita has usually come for something other than the sights of Italy.
What is the history of Santa Rita?
No founding year sits in Santa Rita's record. The district takes its name from Saint Rita, the form the name carries in English, which places it among the Turin quarters named for a dedication rather than for a river, a gate or a road. Turin holds it.
What survives in the record is the name, the parent city, and the district's place within Piemonte and Italy.
Where is Santa Rita?
Santa Rita is set within Turin's built-up area in Piemonte, a district marked out by streets rather than by any river, hill or shoreline.
