loredana

What can I say? There are not enough stars to describe the stay at the Ametista B&B except for the one that can be lit in the heart of those who find hospitality, friendliness, empathy, and a comfortable environment, cared for down to the smallest details - like the abundant, rich, and varied breakfast - and that almost seems to unfold great protective wings for those who have the luck and pleasure of staying there. Highly recommended.

The lady who runs the B&B Ametista is kind, quick, reliable, capable of anticipating and solving needs. The location, a short distance from Bergamo, is very convenient to reach the Upper City, away from traffic even though it's situated on a village street, it is quiet. Room equipped with every comfort, including air conditioning. Excellent and homemade breakfast. Brief delicate and kind conversations.

alessandra

Our room at B&B Ametista was very clean, the bed quite comfortable. Unfortunately, the bathroom in the room didn't have a door, it is, let's say, next to the entrance of the room and this creates a bit of discomfort. Excellent breakfast, even though in the dining area, at the same table with the other guests, it's a bit tight. The location was not very convenient for us, having to go to Seriate, 8 km away but with quite a bit of traffic, but you are close to the hills and woods. The owner is kind and helpful.

stayed from 10/20/2023 to 10/23/2023

The answer from the host:
Gentile Signora Alessandra, grazie per averci scelto di nuovo. Vi aspettiamo presto. Marina e Gretel

daniel

This is a really charming place. The owner Marina gave her heart to make our stay perfect and unforgettable. The room was sweet and homey, even with AC (luckily, as it was a very hot day). The breakfast was really great, and was all hand made by Marina, including delicious cakes (also vegan, by request), jams, fresh fruit from the garden and more. The neighborhood is beautiful and calm. There is a hilly forest nearby, that has many hiking trails with nice views of Bergamo.

Tanks for your stay here. Very good whit you. See you. Marina

Due to delays on flying I arrived later than planned - the host coped with this with no fuss. The host was very focused on making my stay a good one. The room and bathroom were very good and the rate was much less than I expected when I completed the booking - very good value for money. Breakfasts were varied and the host check carefully and provided plenty of food and of high quality. Overall a great place and I will use it again when I visit the town later this year.

stayed from 05/05/2022 to 05/10/2022
