In the heart of the Upper Town, on the corner of Piazza Vecchia and the entrance to Via Colleoni, stands Ristorante Albergo Il Sole, housed in a 15th-century building constructed on the foundations of an even older structure.
The first official list of Bergamo's inns and hotels appears in the 1527 Valuation Survey, where "Ad Solem in Platea" is cited as the only business from that era still existing today, in the same location and with the same spirit of hospitality, just steps from the entrance to the church of San Michele all'Arco.
Five Centuries of Hospitality and Tradition
With its original wrought-iron sign, Ristorante Albergo Il Sole was initially managed by Bernardus De Surisel, a native of the Brembana Valley. Since then, for over three generations, the same family has carried on with passion and dedication a tradition of hospitality rooted in over five centuries of history.
