Built in 1904, the seven-storey Grand Hotel was one of the great icons of this corner of Lombardy up until its closure in 1979. It has an ornate art nouveau facade and a picturesque location along the Brembo river. After sitting abandoned for over three decades, the hotel is slated to reopen by 2020.
