Bergamo Villas

Stayed here for two nights. Had stayed before in the “old town” area of Bergamo which was lovely. This area would be considered “run down”. It’s a 5-10 minute walk to the main town for coffee shops, restaurants etc. Previous reviews commented how welcoming, friendly, helpful etc the reception staff were but I didn’t get that experience. Reception area is right inside the door so it can be crowded arriving and leaving with luggage, prams etc. Room was adequately spaced. Could have been given extra towels (three for a single room is basic), also needed a fridge and water glasses etc in the room. Floors could have been hoovered so make sure you wear slippers (not included in the room)! Didn’t include breakfast in my stay and glad I didn’t cos the selection looked limited. This hotel is fine for a short stay but perhaps look elsewhere if staying for longer.

Good points - communal areas clean and tidy. Vitoria on reception nice. Large bedroom looked like it was recently Decorated. Big bed and soft pillows. Enough electric sockets. Good shower. Soundproof, although there's always someone who has to slam their door. Breakfast good. All the usual. Bread, ham, cheese, yoghurt, fruit eggs etc. Bit manic at times. Bad points. Bedroom wasn't cleaned and bed wasn't made one day. Another day we weren't left with a spare toilet roll. Our towels were never folded and just left in a heap on the rail. Never given any milk in room for coffee. We haf a shared balcony, but if we went on it, you could see staight into another bedroom, on the corner. Thick slimy brown muck at bottom of shower. It was never clear off in the 9 nights we were there. Without effort, I cleared a bit off with a tissue. It was disgusting. Area is good and not run down considering its by the station

We stayed here for 1 night with 2 young kids. We were so pleasantly surprised, it was a beautifully clean and modern room. Had a lovely comfortable bed and bunk beds for the kids which they loved. The room was pre stocked with fresh water, milk, ham, cheese and yogurts in the fridge. Jam, biscuits, toast and some cereal as well as tea and coffee which was just fab to have. The hotel operates a self check in service but provided excellent instructions via email and what's app to ensure a hassle free check in. The hotel itself is in a super location close to restaurants and shops and within walking distance of the old town which was great. We will most definitely be back!!

Hotel is well located to explore Bergamo City with some of the local piazzas within 10-12 minutes walking time. We took taxis on multiple occasions between the Hotel and Bergamo Airport (BGY) and found the cost to vary significantly (between 44EUR and 16EUR). The rooms are of an acceptable standard for European Cities and provided value for money (156EUR / night incl breakfast). The breakfast offered good continental choices with some hot options. I would consider returning to this hotel again only if the price was appealing. The hotel had some aspects which let it down but could be easy to fix... The standard hotel Wi-Fi connection is shockingly poor and did not even have the ability to sustain browsing of basic web pages. There is an option to upgrade to premium Wi-Fi at a cost of 10EUR per day. As someone who travels globally for business on a regular basis, I find this very disappointing. The water temperature was not consistent and fluctuated significantly 2 seconds from hot to cold, making it impossible to have a comfortable shower. Use of the hotel fitness room needs to be booked in advance and is limited to 1 person at a time - this was not obvious and not advised during check-in. In addition to this the hotel carried out a test of the fire alarm during our stay, however there was not enough suitable notification of this test made available to guests. When the alarm was activated, I immediately called reception to be told that there was a notice about it on the reception desk (only of any use if you had visited the reception desk to find this out as it was not present when we checked in the previous evening. The check-in staff could have advised this verbally or even a letter under the door of each room - although I understand that this may not be in accordance with the company's environmental policy - if so then they need to explore other alternatives to ensure suitable communication with guests). Like I said all small aspects which are disappointing and can be easily rectified for the enhancement of future guests.

The hotel is centrally located, but not easily accessible by car without the prior knowledge to use the bus lane as parking to unload. The staff mostly was very helpful and service minded. In general the hotel is outdated and reception, hall and the one elevator are lacking the luster to be considered a 4-star hotel. Hotel bar and restaurant prompt going outdoors. Breakfast itself was good. The room was very small, far too warm and where lacking real air conditioning could not be made comfortable. The room we booked via Booking looks like being furnished in the late 60-ies and is lacking an espresso machine. The bathroom, with plastic cups to try to drink out of, was cramped and without space to place much more than a toothbrush. I hope the hotel will be reviewed by the brand soon to bring it up to the standard we experienced in e.g. the BW in Modena.

Excellent hotel near funicular to Cite Alta (old town) of Bergamo overlooking a park area. Had a room with a balcony (but only one seat) Friendly helpful staff in all areas. Comfortable bed and good shower ( over the bath) excellent self serve breakfast. Bus stop to /from airport across the street. Train station 20 /30 min walk away. Frequent trains to Milan and Lecco (on shore of Lake Como ) for day trips. Arrived on Bank holiday and very busy …huge queues for funicular but bus just as handy for Cite Alta ….can get a 72 hour bus ticket for €12. The hotel has a beautiful rooftop restaurant but unfortunately it is open only to diners( not for a drink) and is rather expensive ! and the hotel doesn’t offer any other dining option.

The standard room is a perfect solution and with a fair price to spend a night in Bergamo in the centre. The structure is quiet, the room is clean. The furniture is modern and sober, the bathroom is spacious. The room had the best coffee and pot machine, Illy, water and tisane. The whole procedure is made online, from the room payment to the stay fee to check in . Rabbit to book with view of the Pathway.

There are a huge number of positives for staying at the Hotel Piazza Vecchia. It is a charming, historic property in the heart of Bergamo’s Citta Alta (Bergamo’s old town), a short walk from all the main sights of this delightful city. The location is superb, close to lots of excellent restaurants and shops, the funicular stops and the main historic sights of the city. Most of the accommodation seems to be near the station which is 15-20 minute walk to the funicular that takes you up to the historic old town (or another 15-20 minute walk up the hill if you are athletic) so it makes a lot of sense to stay here if tourism is the reason why you come to town. The hotel is located off one of the main old town streets, up a short flight of stairs to the reception desk. It’s eighteen steps, and a stairlift is available if you need help. To the three floors where the rooms are located there is a small lift. The check in and out was efficient and friendly, the receptionists are always welcoming and speak English. They really want to boost tourism to the city and were very nice to speak to. The written communication isn’t quite as strong. Before we arrived we requested an airport pick up, which they provide through a local driver who is very nice and speaks good English. We got no confirmation to say this was arranged so emailed again to be told that it was arranged. The pick up was fine but when we went to confirm the return to the airport we found the time they had was wrong. It was soon sorted out, but I would recommend double checking the details. Parking is also available at a nearby site. Our room was on the third floor. It had a balcony with a view of rooftops and the hills behind the city, a large TV (but only with Italian channels), good WiFi, a wardrobe and a very small safe, which again showed for us that Reception is a little inconsistent. I went to use it, followed the instructions and then couldn’t open it. I informed Reception (luckily, I had nothing in the safe) and that it needed resetting, but it didn’t happen during our time at the hotel. There is also a coffee machine, fridge and a comfortable bed and an air conditioner/heater. They provide cups, glasses and a corkscrew. The most irritating thing about the room we stayed in was that there was no ceiling light, just a wall light and three lamps, making the room quite dark and impossible to find anything in the wardrobe or drawers after dark without a torch. The only other downside to the room was that there was only one bin, a small one in the bathroom so it filled up quickly. The room also had a desk, a table and seats, which weren’t that comfortable, they were like garden furniture, so I suspect that they go on the balcony when the weather improves. The bathroom had a good shower. The sink was nicely designed but a bit impractical, with a sloping bottom to it and an overhanging tap which made shaving or washing your face awkward. Housekeeping was fine but the time they clean is very in

The location is very good and convenient. Opposite the train station, the airport bus stop is also next to it. It is not far from the old city. The room is large, very clean, the equipment is very new, and the front desk service is very good.
