Foresteria Gavazzeni

Foresteria Gavazzeni is a bed and breakfast in Bergamo, Lombardy, about 300 metres from the train station and 4 km from Orio al Serio Airport.

The property caters both to business travellers, thanks to its proximity to the Giovanni XXIII Congress Centre, and to those visiting the city for tourism, with the Accademia Carrara less than 2 km away and the historic centre reachable on foot in a few minutes. The rooms, ranging from 8 to 20 square metres, are air-conditioned and feature a private bathroom with toiletries, hairdryer and bidet, flat-screen TV, and parquet or tiled floors; most overlook a quiet inner courtyard.

Among the main services are free WiFi, private parking at no extra cost, and an Italian buffet breakfast. The area around the guest house offers several bars and restaurants within walking distance, useful for those looking for a quick meal or a coffee before visiting the historic monuments of the upper and lower town.

Room types

Foresteria Gavazzeni offers six room types, from the most compact single room of 8 sqm to the 20 sqm triple designed for families or small groups. All share a private bathroom with shower, hairdryer, bidet and toiletries, as well as air conditioning, flat-screen TV and a wardrobe; almost all overlook a quiet inner courtyard, ideal for those seeking rest away from city traffic.

The two Double Rooms differ in bed size and flooring, one with parquet and one with different finishes, while the Twin Room is available in two size variants to suit different space needs.
