[BioC] how to get Entrez Gene ID from genomic coordinates

Hi,
I have a batch of genomic coordinates, and I need to find all the genes (Entrez Gene ID) covered by those coordinates.
I am new to R, but I am able to use biomaRt in R to get various annotation of genes from gene ID lists.
Would it be possible to retrieve my IDs from the coordinates?

The coordinates are in the chr:start:end format; I need the genes from both the strand.

Thank you for the attention,
best regards,
