    This is an absolutely stunning hotel- the building is full of history with a fabulous garden. The rooms were beautiful. It is located right in the heart of the old town, but down a little street so that it was quiet. Breakfast was excellent. Would...

    Palazzo Rivola ist a nice BnB only 2 min far from Piazza Vecchia. There are only few rooms and it was very quiet, also from street. Our room was well equipped and spacious. Breakfast with ham and bacon and several cheese sorts gave a good start...

Company information

Property information

At Palazzo Rivola you will savor the evocative atmosphere of our rooms, where the old meets the modern. It will welcome you with the checkin on the first floor, a large garden and on the side, an original 18th-century fresco. On the second floor, you will find a drink corner where you can enjoy a good coffee, herbal tea or refreshing freshwater. The living room, characterized by an original 17th-century terracotta, is the right environment to enjoy a generous continental breakfast, overlooking a floral master garden.

Neighbourhood information

Palazzo Rivola is located in a relaxing and silent environment in the heart of the upper town, a few meters (50m) from the main square of the upper town, Piazza Vecchia. Bergamo Alta (also known as the Upper City or, in the past, the city, as opposed to the villages) is a medieval city, surrounded by ramparts built in the 16th century, during the Venetian domination, which was added to the pre-existing fortifications. The historic center is to be visited entirely on foot, from the funicular to the lower city, to that for San Vigilio. Walking in streets that still smell of history and mystery. You can visit many places of interest, such as the Duomo, the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, the Fontana del Lantro, the castle of San Vigilio, the Venetian walls, the positions of the cannons, and even the tower of the Gombito, the Rocca and many other things yet.
