Elegant, confortable flat in historical house, in the heart of Città Alta

In the heart of upper Bergamo and facing one of the nicest architectural monuments in town, S. Francesco cloister, still protected from the noise of the main street. Two minutes away from the funicular and the enchanting Piazza Vecchia, it is in a strategic position to reach the places of historical and architectural interest such as the Teatro Sociale, Piazza Vecchia and the Palazzo della Ragione, and St. Augustin church , to name but a few.
You will be lodged in a mansion house dating back to the XIV and XVI centuries. Walking through a marvellous old original wooden gate, you will gain access to the privacy of an interior courtyard with a portico, a central well, a wrought iron balcony and a blown glass door. The palace has belonged for generations to one family that take pains and devote resources to the upkeep of the building. A marvellous stately stairway of stone and wrought iron, ceiling fresco, period furniture, a beam ceilings and an unparalleled view over S. Vigilio Hill.

A great stay
We returned to Bergamo in early December to watch the holiday season arrive in Citta Alta. As this was our fourth stay at 10 via Solata, it was a “coming home” experience. Once again, the Bisetti’s were wonderful hosts, the apartment had improvements, and as always, fresh, clean, comfortable, and welcoming. We appreciate the central location in this old city, being able to walk to several museums, and lots of restaurants, and the funicular to the lower city is very close by. We also appreciate the deep history of this city and the well-preserved building the Bisetti’s call home. Thanks for a wonderful visit and we look forward to returning.

Lovely flat, quiet with great views
Lovely place in old palazzo on quiet street. Very nicely equipped kitchen. Two big beds...one in a bedroom, the other a fold out couch in the living room. Unfortunately we were there during a heat streak...apt on top floor and even with closing shutters etc to sun, it got over 90 F in afternoons into evening, but host supplied additional fan when asked. Unusual heat, but still...

outstanding apartment in palazzo very close to Citta Alta centre
Prime location in Citta Alta but completely free of the noise and hustle of the main street. Everything is walkable including the funicolare down into the new town. The apartment is the type of place that you can spend a lot of time in - so comfortable, light and airy.

Amazing location, well equipped, amazing roof deck
I had a fantastic time staying here! What stood out most is that this has been a guest house for a long time—at least ten years in the guest book—and so it is extremely well equipped, especially in the kitchen. I was solo but a couple or small family would be very comfortable here for an extended stay. The location is unbeatable. Alessandra was very thorough in checking me in, taking a lot of time to give me recommendations about what to see and how to book travel back to Milan. She lives right downstairs and was available on WhatsApp if anything came up. The roof is incredible. The historic palazzo is really cool. A perk for me as an eco-conscious person was that there is compost and recycling so you can travel with minimal waste. I will stay here again when I come back to Bergamo!

Spacious apartment with a beautiful view
What a beautiful, comfortable place to stay in Citta Alta! The apartment is part of the top/ (third) floor of a gracious palazzo near Mercato del Fieno, a two-minute walk from shops and the walkway around the walls. The bedroom has an incredible view out across the town, as does the roof-top deck (accessible only from this apartment). There is plenty of space, a well-appointed kitchen, and a splendid host, who was friendly and helpful and got us a reservation in one of the only parking garages in Citta Alta -- right around the corner! We'll be back! (one note: there is no elevator. wasn't an issue for us, but might be for others).

Palazzo Bisetti is a Perfect VRBO
Paolo and Alessandra were perfect hosts and always on hand with good advice and information. Their charming apartment is on the top floor of a listed building. There are beautiful views from every window. It is very quiet and has comfortable furnishings and a well equipped kitchen. It was especially useful to get our laundry done. The Citta Alta is an amazing town to discover cathedrals, galleries, museums, shops and great restaurants, not to forget about the bells which add to the Renaissance flavour.

Great place, great situation, great experience
if you're looking for a touch of grandeur that is also very well equipped and nicely furnished and yet within a stone's throw of all Bergamo's principal attractions then this is for you. We loved the place. It was all we could have hoped for, except perhaps the lack of AC as temperatures soared . The large fan did its best. Thanks to Alessandra and Paolo for painstakingly talking us through the handover. They really are the most caring and helpful hosts.
