B&B Entro Le Mura is a family-run property housed in a historic 17th-century building in the Upper Town of Bergamo, just 100 meters from Piazza Vecchia.
Fully renovated yet faithful to the original medieval layout, the building preserves ancient ceilings and a frescoed hall with fireplace, where breakfast is served in winter. In summer, the meal moves instead to the courtyard, around an old well, in a quiet, secluded setting despite the proximity to the center. The four room types, all with private bathroom, range from the simplest double up to the apartment with two bedrooms and a kitchenette, suitable for families or small groups.
The private garden, furnished with tables, sun loungers and a table tennis table, is a popular gathering spot for guests on warmer days. The location, right within the Venetian Walls, allows guests to reach the main monuments of the Upper Town and the funicular stations on foot, while the modern historic center and the train station remain just a few kilometers away.
The four room types at B&B Entro Le Mura share a private bathroom, parquet flooring and a flat-screen TV, but differ greatly in size and view. The two smaller rooms, at 18 square meters, face the street and the inner garden respectively, and can be arranged with an extra-large double bed or two separate single beds, ideal for couples who prefer independent beds.
The Triple Room, at 30 square meters, offers more breathing space and flexible bed configurations for up to three people. The largest solution is the 2-Bedroom Apartment, 50 square meters across two separate rooms with a full kitchenette, patio and living area, designed for families or groups of friends who want more independence and space compared to the traditional rooms.
A compact room with private bathroom and street view, available on request with an extra-large double bed or two separate single beds: a flexible solution for those who prefer not to share a mattress.
At 30 square meters, this is the largest room after the apartment, designed for three people and configurable with three single beds or with a double bed and an additional single bed.
The property’s only multi-room solution, with 50 square meters spread across two separate bedrooms, a full kitchenette and a private patio: the ideal choice for families or groups wanting more space and independence.
The twin of the street-view room in size, but facing the inner garden: the private bathroom includes a bidet and hairdryer, while the parquet flooring and electric kettle complete a quiet, bright accommodation.
The private garden is one of the highlights of B&B Entro Le Mura: furnished with tables, sun loungers and a table tennis table, it’s the spot where guests gather on warmer days. The property also offers daily housekeeping, luggage storage and an airport shuttle on request, along with an entirely non-smoking environment and rooms suitable for families as well.
Every room has a private bathroom with shower, complimentary toiletries and a hairdryer, along with a flat-screen TV and internet connection. Parking is available in a garage, while free WiFi covers the common areas and, among the rooms, the Triple Room.
Rounding out the offer are heating, fans during the summer months and the option to request fax or photocopy services at reception, useful details for both short and extended stays.
B&B Entro Le Mura is located in the heart of Bergamo’s Upper Town, the old part enclosed by the Venetian Walls, in a green, residential area just steps from the main monuments. Via San Lorenzo is a quiet street, far from traffic, yet just 100 meters from Piazza Vecchia, the historic heart of the city framed by Palazzo della Ragione and the Biblioteca Angelo Mai.
The property does not have a 24-hour reception, so arrival times must be arranged in advance, but the location makes up for any logistical limitation: the Cathedral is 200 meters away, the Baptistery 200 meters, the Lantro Fountain just 50 meters and the Rocca Museum 150 meters. The two funicular stations connecting the Upper Town with the modern center are 250 and 450 meters away respectively, useful for reaching Bergamo train station, about 3 km away, and Orio al Serio International Airport, about 4-8 km away depending on the route.
Guests staying here can get around almost entirely on foot: Porta San Giacomo, one of the historic gates in the walls, is 400 meters away, while the Accademia Carrara, among the most important art galleries in Lombardy, is about 950 meters away going down toward the lower town. In the summer months, the walls and bastions offer scenic walks over the plain, while in winter the historic center, with its arcaded streets and historic venues like La Tana or Trattoria Tre Torri just steps from the B&B, remains the go-to spot for dinners and aperitifs.
Guests especially praise the staff’s hospitality (9.7) and the location in the Upper Town (9.7), followed by cleanliness and comfort above 9. Free WiFi, limited to common areas and one room, remains the most critical point with a score of 7.4.
