mille e una notte

Mille e una notte is a guest house in the historic centre of Bergamo, just 30 metres from Piazza Vecchia and 50 metres from the Duomo. The entirely non-smoking property is housed in a period building on Via Gombito, a pedestrian street that runs through the old core of the upper city.

The rooms, all 20 square metres, feature a private bathroom with shower, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, a desk and city views. They are designed above all for couples: it’s no coincidence that the location received a score of 9.9 specifically from guests travelling as a couple. WiFi is free throughout the property.

The area is among the busiest in Bergamo, with historic bars, shops and monuments within easy reach: Palazzo della Ragione, the Baptistery and Torre del Gombito are just a few steps away, while the Accademia Carrara can be reached in about ten minutes on foot. Guests arriving by car or taxi from Orio al Serio airport take around a quarter of an hour to reach the guest house.

Room types

The three room types available at mille e una notte share the same size, 20 square metres, and the same basic features: private bathroom with shower, toiletries and hairdryer, air conditioning, heating, flat-screen TV, desk and city views from the windows. These are spaces designed for stays as a couple, in a historic building in the centre of Bergamo Alta.

What mainly sets the rooms apart is the bed configuration: the Deluxe Double Room and the Deluxe Room feature a large double bed, while the Double Room is equipped with an extra-large double bed, the roomiest option among the three. Each room accommodates a maximum of two adults and one child, with essential and functional furnishings that prioritise practicality over common areas, which are absent in this type of owner-run property.

Location & what to see

Mille e una notte is located on Via Gombito, one of the most characteristic pedestrian streets of Bergamo Alta, right in the historic centre of the city. The neighbourhood is home to the main monuments: Piazza Vecchia is just 30 metres away, the Duomo 50 metres, with the Baptistery and Palazzo della Ragione equally close. It’s a lively area, popular with both tourists and residents, with shops, ice cream parlours and historic bars on every corner.

For those arriving from outside, the upper station of the funicular connecting the upper and lower parts of the city is about 150 metres away, convenient for reaching Bergamo Bassa and the railway station in just a few minutes. The Accademia Carrara, the city’s most important art gallery, is about 1 kilometre away on foot. Bergamo-Orio al Serio airport can be reached in around 15-20 minutes by car, depending on traffic, while Milan Linate airport is about 40 kilometres away.

The central location makes it possible to visit virtually all the attractions of the upper city on foot: from the Rocca Museum, about 250 metres away, to Porta San Giacomo, one of the historic gateways to the Venetian walls, also 250 metres away. In summer the panoramic terraces and walkways along the ancient fortifications offer views over the plain, while in winter the historic centre, with its stone streets and porticoes, retains a particular charm, helped by the quieter atmosphere away from the summer tourist flows. It’s no coincidence that couples rate the location very highly, giving it an average of 9.9 out of 10.
