Palazzo Salvecchio

Historic residence in Bergamo's upper town

Bergamo's upper town, with time to enjoy it.

Some stays only need an intimate place and a little room left in the day. Palazzo Salvecchio welcomes you in a sixteenth-century residence among the streets of the upper town: two rooms with different characters and the chance to stay inside Bergamo's history.

The residence

The traces of those who came before.

The frescoes that came to light during the restoration, the terracotta, the vaults: at Palazzo Salvecchio history is close at hand. We chose to leave the traces of time visible and to add what makes living with them pleasant today.

The palazzo stands on the ancient foundations of the Roman aqueduct. During your stay you can linger over a detail you missed at first glance, or go out and look for more stories in the streets around.

The rooms

Two ways to find your own space.

The suite under the vault, with the stone fireplace, and a more intimate room with a small outdoor space. Look at the rooms and choose the one that feels closest to the way you travel.

Suite with vault and fireplace

Suite with vault and fireplace

Look up, then take your time to look around. The barrel vault and the stone fireplace give the suite a character you discover even while sitting in the armchairs. The original terracotta and the private bathroom complete a space to live in without hurrying.

Standard Room

Standard Room

A small outdoor space changes even a short break: you can sit outside before heading back out to walk through the upper town. The Standard is more intimate than the suite, with exposed beams and a private bathroom, for anyone looking for an intimate stay in a historic residence.
