A modern Città Bassa hotel in a convenient location
Housed in a traditional Bergamo palazzo, the Mercure enjoys a convenient central location |
Housed in the Palazzo Dolci on Viale Papa
Giovanni XXIII, one of the main thoroughfares in the lower town, the Mercure is
convenient for the railway station but also within walking distance of the Sentierone
(which means broad path), at the hub of the Città Bassa, and handy for all the restaurants, bars and shops.
Opposite the Mercure there is a bus stop outside the
beautiful church of Santa Maria delle Grazie, from which regular buses take
passengers up to the Città Alta, Bergamo’s historic upper town.
The stop for the bus to Bergamo Caravaggio airport is on the same side of the
road as the Mercure, about five minutes’ walk from the hotel.
The pink-painted Palazzo Dolci has a simple, contemporary
décor on the inside and provides generously proportioned, comfortable guest rooms
with modern furniture. Some rooms feature a striking, large landscape of the Città
Alta above the bed.
The Mercure's rooms are spacious and have plenty of amenities |
A generous buffet breakfast offering guests sweet and
savoury food and hot and cold dishes is served each day in the restaurant on the
ground floor of the hotel.
The Donizetti Theatre and the monument to the Bergamo-born
opera composer are close by, and there are churches housing masterpieces by
Lorenzo Lotto within walking distance.
As an alternative way to travel up to the magical Città
Alta, you can take a ride on Bergamo’s funicular railway, which is situated about 20
minutes’ walk away from the Mercure.
