The People at the reception are friendly and helpful, check in and out goes fast. The Hotel has aircondition and a gym with 3 bikes a Running belt which could be better. All in all a good Hotel to stay more then a night.

I came to this hotel a couple of times to see if we could get the upgrade as we're Marriott…read morePlatinum, but there were always reasons why we couldn't. As a result, I would rent an Airbnb. This trip I had no choice. I checked in and got an "upgrade". What that means is I got a bathrobe and a tea maker and a king-sized bed? But truthfully, I couldn't walk around the room as the bed was too big for the room and I'm kind of a big guy. I've stayed in other AC Hotels - Bologna twice and Firenze (Florence) - but this one is NOT a customer-oriented hotel. More of a business hotel. Frankly, their service is lousy. The next day they didn't clean my room. It was around 3 pm. I hadn't slept at all the night before and I needed to take a nap. The front desk called and said they had to clean the room as the maids were leaving. I told her I needed to sleep and she told me to come to the front desk to get my towels. Wow. In the end, I didn't sleep the three nights I stayed here. Mainly, because of how the doors close. They actually slam! And you can hear that in your rooms. Other reviewers have complained that the walls are thin. As I was leaving the hotel, I got to the elevator just before the floor manager. My hands were full, so I thought she would press the button for me. She did, but she got into the elevator, closed the doors and left me standing there! Unbelievable. This is the attitude of the hotel. It's a management thing. I spoke to the manager when I initially tried to stay there. He's a tall bald guy. They won't budge despite your Platinum status. When my girlfriend called to complain, the manager said they have many, many Platinum members, so his hands are tied. He did finally agree to upgrade me to a suite - after 20 minutes on the phone - but only on the last night, and by then, I was exhausted, miserable and I decided to leave the hotel early to go home to sleep! After 3 nights of bad / no sleep, a 6-hour drive through a rain & snowstorm awaited me - it was grueling. No grazie.

I enjoyed my stay at the Hotel Excelsior San Marco. I stayed for a week for business, and the…read moreclose proximity of the hotel with the Old town (Upper Bergamo) came in very handy. It's quite easy to walk to the Funicular (cable car) and ride up to the upper city. The service at this hotel was top notch. Every encounter I had with all levels of the hotel staff were top notch. I'd recommend this hotel to any of my colleagues staying in Bergamo. On the first floor they have a dining area for a daily breakfast buffet which I liked very much as it is complimentary for hotel guests. The hotel breakfast made mornings prior to going into the office very easy. On the 8th floor, there is a very nice rooftop restaurant that has some very nice views of the city of Bergamo, and also the old city. The food at this restaurant was very good and I recommend dining there at least once for the views.

The staff remember them. There is a new infant and this time the American Nonna joined the nuclear family for the newborn's first outing. The setting amid vineyards, fragrant gardens, and sculptures in a renovated estate is premier among the settings I've been privileged to frequent in Italy as "Nonna." A spa with full services accommodates adults - providing the best deep tissue massage that either female in the party has ever had (sampled from East Coast to West Coast and all regions in between in USA). While this elegant establishment caters primarily to adults (predominantly Italian with a smattering of tourists), the welcome to children is extraordinary. L'Albereta teddy bears were placed on their beds at night for the wee ones and an entire wing is devoted to a children's playroom equipped for all ages (WII gamesets to Duplo blocks). An enormous indoor warm pool provides pool play for the parent and child - next to a well equipped exercise room. And the wines and food! Three different restaurants, and our babies were welcomed. Marvelous!

Breathtaking view with long gorgeous pistes that are catered mostly to intermediate skiers made this my favorite ski resort. The spectacular panoramic view of the Alps exceeds Obereggen and Alta Badia by far, it's hands down the best scenic resort. It's probably one of the most popular ski destination with the possible celebrity sightings such as F.Alonso, Massa, Valentino Rossi who are some of the regulars. With 19 lifts (5 gondolas, 12 chair lifts, 2 surface lifts) the resort offers skiers an incredible 1000 metres (3281 feet) of vertical descent and has 35 pistes with a total length of 60 kilometers. I snowboarded here during the week of Xmas from Dec.23 to Dec. 28 and I cannot ask for any better time to come here..... the pistes were almost empty!!! Since most people prefer to stay home with their family during the Xmas week, we got such an amazing deal for 4 nights stay with 4 days ski pass, breakfast, and 3 course dinner for only 420 euro from a nearby hotel (Hotel Canada)!! However, starting the 28th the pistes were getting crowded and the price hiked. I would definitely go back again...... I can't wait!!!!
