Hotels near Palazzo dell'Ateneo, Bergamo

The Arli Hotel has an unprepossessing exterior on a busy commercial street but is very conveniently located - a short walk from the train station, or to the funicular to the old city, Citta Vecchia, and the downtown shopping and strolling streets. Inside, it is clean, efficient, and well laid-out with a helpful and friendly front desk staff. Our room was likewise very clean, with very comfortable bed, good lighting, useful shelf space and furnishings, simple modern decor, and a decent-sized and fine bathroom. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful. We were entirely happy with our stay here.

The hotel is generally satisfied, the neighborhood is more prosperous, many shops, you can go out. It takes about 5 minutes to walk from the train station, the front desk service is very good, the front desk lady is very warm.

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.

Our second stay in this hotel and it will not be our last! We have now stayed here for our anniversary and my partners birthday! The staff are all so so lovely, they are so helpful. The breakfast is great - there are sausages, beans & eggs all hot and fresh and topped up often. There are many varieties of fresh croissants, there are cakes and creams and jam and toast and yoghurts also. The pistachio cream is amazing! The lobby is old fashioned & authentically Italian and we love it! The bedrooms are all different and all just as lovely. The first time we stayed we had a beautiful ornate headboard and the second time we had a perfect top floor room! ( beware there are steps up if you want a top floor) We had a wraparound balcony where we could watch a lovely Italian sunrise. Both rooms we have stayed in had baths. The service is really second to none. There are luggage holding facilities which we use. The hotel is a 10/15 min walk into a more central part of the new town and the bus/train stations which is perfect for us. It’s quite quiet around the hotel.

There's not enough good words that can be said about the skills and training of the front desk staff, the breakfast servers, the evening dining room staff, and the housekeeping ladies. I am what is now being referred to as a ”Digital Nomad,” single, solo and senior traveler... and this hotel really fits my needs. Sure it could be €10 cheaper, but the room has an excellent long work countertop, WiFi Internet, large bed for sleep and for organizing travel bags, bathroom with both a tub and a walk-in shower correctly designed for use, and the food service is quite amazing. While you do need to take the taxi to most places, unless you drive, there is a major shopping mall just across the highway, and an unadvertised underground tunnel to get to the other side of the road and to that shopping center! I am not a fancy restaurant person, but the restaurant accommodates me with a very simple selection of food by my request. Both at breakfast and at dinner, the dining room is usually packed with happy diners and eaters. While I sit there with my simple food selection at dinner, I do admire the variety of Italian dishes that are ordered by other diners. Maybe I can't eat the spicy food but it sure looks good! And the other guests are very happy! I have used the Hotel's driver to taxi me to and from a variety of locations: BGY airport, Bergamo train Station, as well as the Covid vaccination center! He can be booked by SMS text and WhatsApp. Extremely easy to communicate with- both digitally and in multiple languages. The hotel is off the beaten track, therefore the taxi rides are going to be 10 additional euro from what might be expected in more urban areas. This is one of my more favorite hotels of any brand. While I rate the location as poor because you need to drive to get almost anywhere, the remoteness of the location is in itself a plus if you are residing here for more than just an overnight, because the landscaping is simple yet comforting, and major parking is underground.

We had a wonderful experience at the Winter Gardens Hotel. Every staff member I deal with, from the check-in to the cleaning staff were delightful and extremely helpful. The Restaurant waitress was helpful to explain the menu give some suggestion and eager to help! Thank you! Will recommend to everyone wants to have a good time and relax.

It is the third time I have been in this building for a night, and I reaffirm the courtesy, the gentleness of the owner, in booking a room even if I called under date. It cleans spacious rooms with a modern and clean breakfast, where you can find a sweet and salty, and offers you the opportunity to choose a book, to read comfortable in the room, the restaurant room, then offers the best of the local kitchen. I'll certainly come back with a good choice.

Siamo stati in questa struttura per una notte, scelta per la vicinanza a Leolandia. Devo dire che il personale è stato molto gentile e l’hotel si presenta bene, con camera tripla ampia. Ma ci sono due però: -la nostra aria condizionata non funzionava quindi prima di uscire per cena (sapevamo che al nostro rientro non ci sarebbe stato Nessuno in reception) ci siamo rivolti alla ragazza che controllando ha notato che effettivamente era spenta dal generale quindi ha riattivato e noi con tutta tranquillità siamo usciti per cena. Al nostro rientro la camera era ancora senza aria condizionata, quindi siamo tornati a cercare qualcuno. Un signore, penso il guardiano di notte, ha provato a farlo partire ma nulla quindi gentilmente ci ha portato un ventilatore per la notte. La mattina abbiamo riferito l’accaduto e ci hanno fatto uno sconto del 20%. -colazione pessima. Non c’era niente, solo una ragazza che doveva sparecchiare i tavoli, portare il buffet, chiedere ai clienti cosa desideravano da bere e portarle ai tavoli. Abbiamo atteso 20 min per mangiare qualcosa e mezz’ora per 2 cappuccini. Troppo poco personale per l’ora della colazione. Mi dispiace perché veramente il posto è bello e accogliente e il personale molto gentile, ma non ci torneremo!
