Beautiful hotel at the base of the old city. A short walk to the Funicular and a 1.70€ ride up to the old city is a necessity. We spent all our time in the old city.

The hotel is very good and convenient for the Funicular railway and for the new town. It would have been handy if there was some information in the room as to how the Air-Con worked. I took us three days to find the contriol. I think a little sign above the control with the words "Air Con" would be understood by people of most languages.

Hotel San Marco deserves its excellent rating. Reception staff very efficient, and very accommodating when family visited one evening. Room was very clean and spacious, a kettle was provided with coffee and tea, bathrobes, toiletries and slippers were available. The balcony overlooked a local park. Breakfasts were excellent. A huge variety of cereals, cold and cooked choices and delicious cakes pastries and fresh fruits, and hot and cold drinks were available. We really appreciated the huge fridge containing yoghurts milks etc. A very busy breakfast room was very efficiently served by friendly and approachable staff. Outdoor tables looked up to the Citta Alta. The rooftop restaurant served a good selection of choices, beautifully presented by discrete and well trained staff. Views to the illuminated Citta Alta were breathtaking. The hotel is conveniently situated for local bus services to Citta Alta, the train station, and the airport bus stops right opposite the hotel. We would certainly recommend this hotel!

This was my first time visiting Bergamo, and the hotel was a great choice. The staff provided excellent service, and the breakfast offered plenty of options. The location is ideal—just a short walk to Città Alta (via the funicular), the main shopping street, restaurants, and the central train station. The only quirky detail was the elevator system—it’s not the most efficient, but it didn’t affect our stay. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel, and when we return to Bergamo, this will definitely be our choice again.
