The Starhotels Cristallo Palace, Bergamo, is located in the southern half of the city, near the Porta Nuova area. The hotel is a four star establishment offering a convenient setting with modern amenities that is still close at hand to all of the charm of the Upper Old City. The lovely mountain town, 50 kilometres northeast of Milan, is typical of the Lombardy Region. The town was ruled by the Venetians for over three centuries and still retains much of its Venetian flair. Elaborate Gothic windows, typical Venetian architecture, and the Venetian Lion symbol emblazoned on many of its antique edifices hint at its colorful past. The Old City’s fortress like ring of walls adds a dramatic touch to its picturesque charm.
