Hotels near Episcopal Seminary Giovanni XXIII, Bergamo

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 would certainly come back over and over. We were only here for one evening but everything was perfect. I wish there would be a microwave otherwise you can find everything you need in there and it's extremely clean. The bed felt AMAZING.

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.

I arrived into Bergamo airport at just after 1am, the taxi drivers outside were like sharks in a feeding frenzy on the poor unsuspecting arrivals...I went to the front of the line of cars as is usual practice, the driver asked where I was going and then started shouting out to the other drivers, pointed out another car and told me to go there..as a woman travelling alone I am careful..I told the driver there was already someone in his car...turns out they pack you in ! Three of us, me the first drop, 2 minutes later and we arrive at my hotel, 20 euros ! Minimum charge apparently ! What a con ! Opened my curtains the following morning after no sleep due to air con set at a boiling 22 degrees! The airport is directly opposite the hotel across a major road ! The next day I walked to the airport up the road via an underpass (I wouldn't have done this at night on my own but a man checking in at reception had done) The room was basic and drab, decorated...I use the phrase lightly...bland and hostel like ! No pictures, old,tired and dull furniture...depressing...oh and NO TEA TRAY ! In the small fridge which I was amazed had been inserted into this awful room devoid of any personality or comfort, had one can of coke and two bottles of water...priced at 3.50 euro each ! I did mention on check out my displeasure of the missing tea tray and the lovely receptionist informed me the standard rooms don't have tea trays, I paid £142 for one person for one night without breakfast ! I honestly believe a tea tray is a basic requirement, also at least one bottle of complimentary water, I have self catering places and provide all of this ! I will not be staying in this awful place again.

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.

Lovely hotel not as close to the airport as presumed (should of read the info) Very modern hotel we ate in the restaurant and was lovely food Our room was right by reception and for some reason a disabled room which we didn’t need this was really noisy with the bar area being so echoey I could hear every word then when the staff started work in the morning we could hear them chatting early morning Breakfast had great choices and unlike others we used the shuttle bus with no issues at a charge of €5 each we had a taxi to the airport when we landed at a cost of €30 so the shuttle in the morning was reasonable

Great hotel, clean and very friendly staff. I was with the family because there is a children's entertainment park near them and I have to say we found ourselves very well. The hotel is 15 minutes from Leolandia entertainment park. I strongly recommend it.

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.
