Bus Shuttle to Alba €2.50

Bra Bus Station (Piazza Roma) → Alba (Autostazione Alba)

25 min · Every 30 minutes · 07:00–20:00 (weekdays); reduced service on weekends

💡 This is the best option for day trips to Alba without a car. The bus (line 134) departs from bay 4. Sit on the right side for vineyard views approaching Alba. Buy tickets at the tabacchi shop inside the station—drivers don't sell them.

🚂
Regional Train from Turin €4.90

Turin Porta Nuova Station → Bra Train Station

35 min · Hourly (approximately) · 05:30–22:00 (last departure from Turin around 21:15)

💡 Use Trenitalia's app for discounts: a one-way ticket costs €4.90 if bought online, but €6 at the machine. The station is 800m from the hotel—turn left out of the station, cross the bridge, then follow Via Cavour straight to Piazza Carlo Alberto. Beware: the 06:15 train is often cancelled on Sundays.

🚌
FlixBus from Turin €6

Turin Porta Susa Bus Station → Bra Bus Station (Piazza Roma)

70 min · 8 daily · 06:00–22:00

💡 Get off at 'Bra Piazza Roma' stop, not 'Bra Via Carlo Alberto'—the latter is a 15 min walk from the hotel. Buy tickets via the FlixBus app; cash costs €2 extra on board. Buses sometimes stop at Alba first, adding 20 min.

🚕
Private Airport Transfer €95

Turin Caselle Airport (TRN) → Albergo La Corte Albertina, Bra

60 min · On request · 24/7 (pre-book required)
