Plan your stay at Antico Borgo

An elegant residence in the heart of Bergamo, offering apartments with kitchens and rooms in a separate building, just steps from Accademia Carrara and Teatro Donizetti.

Room types

Antico Borgo’s offering includes eight types of accommodation spread across separate buildings within the borgo, from compact studios to apartments with a separate bedroom. All accommodations share air conditioning, a private bathroom and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, ensuring a consistent level of comfort regardless of the size chosen.

The main differences lie in the space and format: the double rooms in the separate building remain more compact, around 20-35 square meters, while the apartments exceed 65 square meters and include a kitchenette with a separate living room, suitable for families or groups of up to four people. The studios, ranging from 25 to 35 square meters, represent a middle ground for those seeking more privacy without giving up their own kitchen. The bed configuration varies from room to room, with mixed solutions of single beds, large double beds and sofa beds to suit different guest compositions.
