Casa Mario Lupa is an excellent base for exploring Citta Alta in Bergamo. Located in an old building the facilities are fine. Our room did not have a window we could use but otherwise we had everything we needed. Breakfast was limited but again ok. The owner was welcoming and helpful.

Excellent facilities, and great location just a few yards away from the main walking streets of Bergamo (upper town). There are four locked gateways/doors to get through to access your room which added to the feeling of being very protected within this beautiful old building. The very polite owner & his family live on site which was also very reassuring. Breakfast was always served with a smile and some good advice on restaurants. Local Bergamo wine is available to purchase from owner as well as a selection of beverages. Bergamo has history and beauty in equal measure. The Basilica is one of the most beautiful I’ve been in.

Gianmauro was an excellent and very friendly host. The property is a medieval house in the center of old Bergamo, close to the Cathedral and several churches. The room was quiet and pleasant. Highly recommended.

Location is great, and the property is in an old palace, with frescoes, really beautiful! Overall, I recommend it. Unfortunately, we probably got the worst room in that property. It's a room on the ground floor that had only one window, facing the entrance. So, if we wanted to have natural light, privacy would be a bit compromised. Other rooms above us had more windows.

This is a mixed review. I give the B&B 10 for the location in Bergamo’s historique center and for the historical building. The room was very big and had a full size fridge. I give them 7 when it comes to the breakfast and the service. Also at this location the locality forbids heating after April 15 so if you encounter a cold spell in the weather as we did, the room is cold (19 celcius). If you are by car, you must park in a private parking facility about 5 minutes away passing on cobblestone streets. The parking is a very safe place to put your car but it costs 25 Euros. Took funicular to citti bassa where you can find a nice laundromat and wash and dry for about 10 euros. A good 15-minute walk.

The character of the room was amazing. Vaulted ceiling, stone and brick walls, and a chandelier made me really feel like I was in Italy! All that and breakfast too!

Took a taxi directly from the train station to the front of this hotel for about €12. Completely worth it so you don’t have to try to find it. Our host was kind, patient and thorough. The property is cute as can be, and we were very pleased with our room. It was charming, had two beds, and a perfect little kitchenette. It was quiet and perfect, just what you would expect being in the heart of old town Bergamo. A short walk to anything and everything, and you should do yourself a favor and try out this little property instead of a larger hotel. Left tooearly to have breakfast, but I’m sure it would’ve been spectacular. **Make sure to communicate with the property out of time as far as arrival timing. We did not do this ahead of time, and was unaware their messages to me were going to my spam folder box. Also used the Hotels private car service for an early airport run the next morning, and I highly recommend that young man as well.

This is a charming bed & breakfast type room in a beautiful old building right next to Piazza Vecchia in the old town. Everything is close at hand, and all the restaurants we tried were very good with friendly and professional service. As tourists we still seemed to be treated as well as locals. Casa Mario Lupo host, Gianmauro, is extremely helpful, and courteous. Our room was large and perfectly functional, with a very comfortable bed. Breakfast is simple, but wholesome and satisfying. If arriving by train take a taxi to the property, unless you are determined to save a few euros and want to try the very crowded bus and then the funicular. We confidently recommend this property to anyone visiting the delightful town of Bergamo.

The room was very spacious and comfortable. There was a kitchenette, washing machine and a good sized bathroom. Also a fan for when it is warm. We were located on the top floor but there are also rooms on the ground floor for people with mobility problems. Breakfast was ok with fruit, bread with jam or ham and cheese on another day. Tea/coffee/juice and yogurt. Very central location.

It was all perfect, from the booking over the initial contact, the service and personal care on site. It's a fantastic antic house, renovated with a lot of devotion. We loved our stay in Bergamo, thanks a lot!

The staff is super nice!! Location good. Room service of breakfast.

The whole experience at Casa Mario Lipo is terrific. The breakfast is a wonderful start to each day and staying in Citta Alta is great for when the crowds disappear. Highly recommended!
