From the moment I arrived, I knew I had chosen the right place for my first visit to Bergamo . I was welcomed by Francesca, whose warmth and professionalism were exceptional— Throughout my three-night stay all of the staff was incredibly attentive, and went above and beyond to make every moment of the stay perfect. I am a solo female traveler, and I felt completely safe and pampered. I was given excellent recommendations on shopping, dining, and general advice on logistics. All of it contributed to the notion that this is a place where the guest experience is at the core. The hotel itself has a feeling of secluded and intimate sophistication, with thoughtful details at every turn. In the rooms (all with a different look and set-up, so choose accordingly) are outfitted with top-quality toiletries and delicious Culti fragrance, Frette linens, and plush robes that help elevate the entire experience. What a nice touch to have two bottles of water and a complimentary mini panettone in the room, a small but memorable gesture...such as many others that imprinted a delightful memory, such as the candles for the sauna session. Definitely, one of the highlights was the private wellness area. There is an infrared sauna and jacuzzi, impeccably designed for complete relaxation. I only used the fantastic sauna, and the experience felt very indulgent and serene. The breakfast offering is perfect. It provided a wide variety of high-quality options, some of which are made from scratch in-house. The dining area is small and accommodates a discrete number of guests (the property has only 12 rooms), so breakfast translated into a special and peaceful moment to start the day. For those who seek quality vs. flashiness, this hotel is a true gem as it is curated in every aspect without going overboard. At Petronilla, I found a place where comfort, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality come hand-in-hand. If the road takes me back to Bergamo, I would return to this hotel without hesitation. Thank you particularly to Francesco, such a friendly face every morning (and who patiently and expertly helped map my day), and the rest of the small staff, for making this first visit to Bergamo such a memorable and wonderful experience!
