Nothing - although it is a bit costly, it is worth it.

Extraordinary in every way! In itself a truly memorable experience. Historic yet beatifully refurbished building in a modern and inspiring design in every detail. Fabulous views from its position on a hill overlooking the rooftoops of Bergamos old town. The newly laid out garden has a stunning design with a renaissance feel to it, yet at the same time modern. It is a garden you want to sit in and relax, just move around between the different spots and levels of the large and terraced garden. The staff are relaxed, confident and attentive - making you feel as an unique guest. And the breakfeast, served in the garden is individualized to your taste and worth at least an hours sitting - the best hotel breakfast we have ever had. And last but not least there is also a restaurant, with lunch and dinner servings, were you sit in the lower terrace, magnificantly lit up when darkness fell. The food was excellent as well as the staff. We had one of the three different tasting menues including 5 dishes, all of which surprized us in presentation and taste. We felt so priviliged during our stay at Relais San Viligo - it is worth a detour in itself!

We had an absolutely amazing time staying in Relais San Vigilio al Castello. The interior décor of the Castello and its immediate surroundings makes resting there even better. Great city view from the window of the room. Very good breakfast served on elegant tableware. Hotel employees were very helpful.

Views, food

We preferred a buffet breakfast, e.g. you can choose your own portion size, but that's just our personal view

The breakfast was very good

As you might expect in old Italian towns, the streets and roads can be a little tight, particularly for a larger car (4x4).

Fantastic hotel located, wonderfully located overlooking Bergamo Alto. Lovely spacious room well maintained and clean. supper was excellent and staff very helpful. Highly recommend the hotel.

La location suggestiva

Everything about this hotel is STUNNING. wow! Absolute pure luxury in every way. From the views to the beds and everything in between it was nothing short of perfection.

Photo directions for how to arrive at the hotel were good - would be better to also include written instructions. Driving solo and trying to look at an enlarged photo was challenging at times. Also - no directions were given for how to leave the property so narrow / one-way roads could be avoided. It is not intuitive. Last item - no information was provided before arrival that the funicular from outside the hotel is out of operation at present time. This information ahead of the stay would have altered my agenda for the visit. Instead, I did not have time to visit Citta Alta because I did not have time for the walk down and back up to the hotel parking area.

Staff, food and beverage, atmosphere, location / setting all wonderful!

Nothing. Although we wished the funicular was working when we were there. Plenty of steps up and down the hill.

Beautiful hotel set in a beautiful location. Very calm and relaxing.

Its a long drive around Bergamo, but really worth while when you get there. For people with mobility problems could be an issue as you have to go up a big flight of stairs to get to the hotel door. no issue for us though.

Only spent 1 night there but it was Amazing!! The food is next level as are the views

We stayed on December 25 which is a difficult day for dinner in Italy. Thanks to Gianluigi who found us a perfect dinner location we actually went to Bergamo. If not for him we would not have gone. The hotel itself is very beautiful. The room was nice and breakfast delicious.

Beautiful and quiet stay in the centre of the old town, panoramic views of the city! Well refurbished building and everything was new and in good condition. Amazing breakfast with perfect service.

A beautiful location with spectacular views. The staff are very friendly and make every effort to make you feel welcome. The bedrooms are comfortable and stylish. The breakfast is delicious and particularly special when served on the outside terrace.

In winter, for a family, there is no point in staying there. Not the property's fault though. It is just inconvenient and being dark the attractiveness of the views is lost. At half the price in off-season it is simply better value to stay closer to the city. For example, all the restaurants close-by are "upscale" although there is their pizzeria that can work for children if you are up to paying the 16 euros coperto tax for a family of 2x2

It is a cozy place. Breakfasts are wonderful. There are two handy free parking lots besides the property but with limited places. The personnel were very helpful. For example, one day it rained and we could make use of several umbrellas to visit the city.

Nothing....it's superb!

4th time I have stayed at The Relais San Vigilio. Such a wonderful hotel in a peaceful location at the top of the mountain away from the hoards of tourist with the best views of Bergamo. Superb restaurant 2 minutes walk from them, the Baretto San Vigilio is a must and with easy access to the rest of the city using the funicular railway

Great rooms, friendly staff, beautiful views, superb restaurant

More cabinet space or more hangers on walls were needed in our room.

The garden setup and the view were fantastic!

Getting very picky here. Better lighting in the dressing area would be convenient. The road to the underground car park is extremely challenging for an Audi A6. Narrow streets and tight corners. It does, however, make for some great travel stories!

Beautiful building in a stunning location overlooking the city. The room was large and well appointed. Exceptional breakfast served at your table either inside or on the patio as weather permitted. Steps from the funicular down to the old town center. It is a leisurely walk down and a relaxing ride back up.
