This was a step up from student dorm. Bed was from 1940. Bouncing mattress. Bathroom tiny where shower door hits the toilet. No where comfortable to sit in room or common area. Window faces interior light well. Not a bnb because no one on site. More like a group of 4 rooms with small space in between. Poor value for price. Stay at excelsior palace hotel instead

A perfect B & B in the heart of Bergamo
A very traditional B & B in the heart of Citta Alta in Bergamo. Very clean, warm and comfortable room with space to relax. Giovanna was just so helpful and made our stay even more special. Just wish we could have stayed longer.

Everything about the stay was fantastic. From the room to the host to the city itself, it was all better than I could have imagined. I would highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting Bergamo. Thank you for everything, Giovanna!

B&B SanLorenzo is a great place to stay for a visit to Bergamo’s upper city. Giovanna welcomed us to a clean, bright, comfortable B&B and made us feel welcome. The room had a nice balcony, comfortable bed, and windows for a nice cross breeze in the evening. Highly recommend.

Great B&B in the old town of Bergamo
We had a great stay at B&B San Lorenzo and highly recommend it. At first we had a bit difficulty finding the B&B but Johanna helped us with the location and personally guided us to the parking lot. This B&B is right in the middle of the old town so it is an easy walk to restaurants, bars, etc. Our room looked just like in the pictures and was in great condition and spotless. The furniture throughout the B&B was coordinated, light and bright. Breakfast was good and the service overall very friendly.

We loved our time in Bergamo. The location of this B&B is perfect for access to the Citta Alta since it's right in the heart of the old town. But what we loved the most, much to our surpise, were the owner, Claudia, and Paula. Claudia is one of the most gentle, sweet, caring, and lovely people we have ever met. And Paula in her slightly saucier and funny way was just as enjoyable and kind. Without any prompting, Paula remade our cappuccinos because she saw they had been sitting for 15 minutes, just to make sure we had fresh ones. And even though we hadn't paid for breakfast, Claudia told us we could join in for free. Of course I couldn't stand for that, but how incredibly generous and kind! I could go on and on. And then her and her husband (another lovely human!) have the most precious border collie in the world....Angie!!! My wife and I still playfully yell out, "Angie!," from time to time to remember everything wonderful about our magical stay in Bergamo, so much of which we attribute to the glorious people running B&B San Lorenzo. We'd so very much love to go back.

A nice B&B with friendly staff. We arrived late after check-in, because of the communication before our stay we were able to let them know we were delayed and the staff were still available once we arrived to give us information on the town.

Great weekend stopover for sightseeing
This place is steps away from the main square, where the tower, 3 churches, and unique sundial are musts. You could pay lots of money to go to a museum and not see half of what is in these churches. I never left citti alta, excepting a couple of hikers upward, and it was great to be staying right in the middle. The first two photos are on opposite ends of the city, but are within a 15 minute walk of the B&B. The hosts are very welcoming and make you feel right at home. Room was as pictured and spotless. I don't think you'll be streaming video with the wifi but it worked solidly for me. Note: because you are right in the middle, be aware that weekend nightlife is alive and well in the citti alta. I happened to pick a weekend with a huge running event, so i'm not sure how typical my experience was. There's places to get a drink to 2am. The windows on my room were pretty good with the keeping the noise down, but a noise sensitive person who needs to get to sleep at 9pm might have another opinion.

Classy B&B in a great location
Would highly recommend this B&B in Citta Alta. It’s in an excellent location close to all the sights in the Old town of Bergamo. Wonderful cafes and restaurants nearby. Giorgiana is a very helpful host, meeting us as arranged and organising a park for our car. The rooms are beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean, and breakfast was delicious. We had a most enjoyable stay.

Location, location, location....and a comfortable
The heading said most of it, but a bit more information. Not only a great location right in the main street of the old town but lovely, helpful owner and staff plus a comfortable bed, they were also knowledgeable on what to see and gave good restaurant recommendations. The place was spotless and well presented with a breakfast room and guest lounge. A good breakfast which included eggs how we wanted them done plus the usual Italian breakfast choices. We were meet at the taxi drop off point and was meet by the owner, totally unexpected even though we had notified her of our ETA. A big thank you to staff at this B&B for making our stay so pleasant.

Perfect location, perfect host
The B & B in right in the centre of Bergamo Citta Alta, straight out the courtyard to the shops, restaurants and main square. However as soon as your in it's quiet and peaceful. The host was great. She spoke good English and always happy and willing to help. A good breakfast every morning with lots of varairy. Room was spacious, clean, nice decor, had air con and was cleaned every day. Couldn't ask for more. A 25 min walk to Bergamo train station and a day can be spent at Lake Garda or other local lakes. Great place to stay for our 4 days in Italy :)

An Excellent Choice
This is an excellent place to stay. Your hosts will be attentive and friendly; they will answer e mails promptly and also offer a transfer from Bergamo airport to the property - a good option. The rooms are modern and comfortable, spotlessly clean and well cared for. Breakfasts are abundant and fresh. The location is central to the Citta Alta of Bergamo, a wonderful place to explore over a day or two if you've not been before.

Cozy B&B in the heart of Bergamo
This place was great for our one night stay in Bergamo. The owner doesn't live at the B&B, she is about 10km away so she requested we contact her when we were about an hour out and she was there when we arrived. The owner was so gracious and met us on the street and showed us where to park the car and then how to get into the B&B. She recommended a great local's place for dinner that was phenomenal. Given our short stay, she provided guidance on what sites we should spend time seeing. The B&B has 3 rooms available for rent and a common area where a delicious breakfast is served at your own requested time. The owner explained it was her childhood home and the place was beautiful with exposed stone walls. Each room has its own bathroom and individual climate control. The room was clean, updated and provided plenty of linens. I highly recommend San Lorenzo B&B for a stay in Bergamo!

A New B&B That Is Soon To Become A Favourite
This is a new B+B (opened in May) with just three bedrooms all furnished to a high standard with painted antique French furniture. The owner, Giovanna, and her husband make you most welcome and the breakfast is fresh and plenty full. I have been visiting Città Alta for 36 years and this establishment will soon establish itself as a favourite with all that stay here.
