Hotel Cappello d’Oro, BW Signature Collection
Located in the heart of Bergamo, Hotel Cappello D’Oro is a treasure trove of intact beauty, steeped in the city’s history. Its name evokes an ancient tradition, with its most iconic feature being a gilded top hat adorned with real diamonds displayed in the hotel lobby—a gift from Giuseppe Borsalino in 1930 as a gesture of gratitude for the hotel’s exceptional hospitality.
