About this property

Elegant, confortable flat in historical house, in the heart of Città Alta

  • In the heart of upper Bergamo and facing one of the nicest architectural monuments in town, S. Francesco cloister, still protected from the noise of the main street. Two minutes away from the funicular and the enchanting Piazza Vecchia, it is in a strategic position to reach the places of historical and architectural interest such as the Teatro Sociale, Piazza Vecchia and the Palazzo della Ragione, and St. Augustin church , to name but a few.
    You will be lodged in a mansion house dating back to the XIV and XVI centuries. Walking through a marvellous old original wooden gate, you will gain access to the privacy of an interior courtyard with a portico, a central well, a wrought iron balcony and a blown glass door. The palace has belonged for generations to one family that take pains and devote resources to the upkeep of the building. A marvellous stately stairway of stone and wrought iron, ceiling fresco, period furniture, a beam ceilings and an unparalleled view over S. Vigilio Hill.

This flat was superbly appointed and a perfect haven from the hustle and bustle of the Citta Alta.The location, in Via Solata, only steps from Via Gombito, is ideal and the views from the rooftop area and the bedroom are stunning.Alessandra was the perfect host, with excellent communications throughout with the check in process being very straightforward. She also gave us excellent recommendations, including a visit to the Palazzo Moroni and a restaurant in San Vigilio.

Paolo and Alessandra were exceptional hosts in their beautiful home, where we stayed on the top floor. They were most helpful with information about Bergamo. The apartment was charming and centrally located. We would stay with them again!

Truly, beyond our expectations! We were treated so well by Alessandra and family, with care and respect and support for our needs and wishes. It was like home away from home. The apartment was perfectly appointed and had all kitchen amenities. Location was steps away from the heart of Citta Alta yet quiet and private behind the walls of this amazing piazza. Would love to go back and do it all over again! Bergamo kept us busy and enthralled for 2 weeks! Music, art, Lombardy annual bike race, markets, and hidden gem cuisine. Go! And stay at this beautiful place.

A great stay

We returned to Bergamo in early December to watch the holiday season arrive in Citta Alta. As this was our fourth stay at 10 via Solata, it was a “coming home” experience. Once again, the Bisetti’s were wonderful hosts, the apartment had improvements, and as always, fresh, clean, comfortable, and welcoming. We appreciate the central location in this old city, being able to walk to several museums, and lots of restaurants, and the funicular to the lower city is very close by. We also appreciate the deep history of this city and the well-preserved building the Bisetti’s call home. Thanks for a wonderful visit and we look forward to returning.

Excellent Location in Bergamo

This was a great place to stay in Bergamo. It's in a convenient location in Citta Alta, but just slightly off the main thoroughfare so it felt like an oasis of calm. It's part of a historical palazzo, and the decor follows suit.The kitchen is quite well equipped, albeit with some slightly chaotic aspects. There is a roof terrace accessed via (fairly steep) stairs, lovely for an aperitivo on a sunny evening. The bed is confortable. Communication with the host was first class, and she helped us arrange a driver to pick us up from the airport - which worked well. She also recommended a couple of excellent restaurants (Il Circolino a particular highlight). Highly recommended - we hope to be back!

Top floor of a palazzo

Characterful flat on top floor of a palazzo situated in a quiet area but not far from the centre of Città Alta. A lovely apartment well located in the heart of Bergamo Alto. There was everything in the apartment we needed for a wonderful week. Bergamo is charming. Paula who welcomed us was very friendly and showed us around the apartment and explained how everything worked. We had 2 lovely conversations with Alessandra. Thank you for the suggestions of where to go and eat. Staying in Il Chiostro has been so restorative. Thank you for the hospitality. Bergamo is a wonderful place to holiday.

Great place with an excellent host

We loved our stay in Bergamo. The apartment was exactly as advertised, very quiet and comfortable and in a great location in Citta Alta. Although we didn't use it, the kitchen was well equipped.

Great Location and Flat

The flat is in a great location in Citta Alta and was very clean. It is located within Citta Alta, so arranging for vehicle parking is helpful. The location is close enough to walk to all of the sights of the upper city, without experiencing any of the noise from the main street. The host was also very responsive and helpful.

Prime location in Citta Alta but completely free of the noise and hustle of the main street. Everything is walkable including the funicolare down into the new town. The apartment is the type of place that you can spend a lot of time in - so comfortable, light and airy.

Lovely flat, quiet with great views

Lovely place in old palazzo on quiet street. Very nicely equipped kitchen. Two big beds...one in a bedroom, the other a fold out couch in the living room. Unfortunately we were there during a heat streak...apt on top floor and even with closing shutters etc to sun, it got over 90 F in afternoons into evening, but host supplied additional fan when asked. Unusual heat, but still...

Amazing location, well equipped, amazing roof deck

I had a fantastic time staying here! What stood out most is that this has been a guest house for a long time—at least ten years in the guest book—and so it is extremely well equipped, especially in the kitchen. I was solo but a couple or small family would be very comfortable here for an extended stay. The location is unbeatable. Alessandra was very thorough in checking me in, taking a lot of time to give me recommendations about what to see and how to book travel back to Milan. She lives right downstairs and was available on WhatsApp if anything came up. The roof is incredible. The historic palazzo is really cool. A perk for me as an eco-conscious person was that there is compost and recycling so you can travel with minimal waste. I will stay here again when I come back to Bergamo!
