  • Our location icon plus icon minus

    We are tucked away in the vineyards, between the mountains and the valley on the outskirts of Meran with its culinary hotspots, shops, cosy cafés and Therme Meran – the stylish thermal baths. A drop of Dolce Vita in a sea of South Tyrolean groundedness. The world-famous gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle are in our neighbourhood, and the Merano 2000 skiing and hiking area is only a few minutes’ drive away.

  • Rooftop pool and sauna icon plus icon minus

    Our roof hosts a small wellness oasis featuring a private sauna and a saltwater pool, open from early May to mid-October – both are at your disposal free of charge. To protect every guest’s privacy, access to the sauna is limited to two people at a time. No reservation required – it only takes a little time and patience if the sauna is already occupied. The short wait will be a good opportunity to unwind and relax, simply taking in the stunning natural backdrop.

  • Arrival and departure icon plus icon minus

    Check-in is from 3 to 5 pm or, on request, from 2 to 4 pm.

    As we spend most of our day at work in the vineyard or in the cellar, and there is no round-the-clock reception, we kindly ask you to send us a short message with your expected arrival time approx. 30 minutes in advance. This will give us the chance to prepare for what we enjoy most: welcoming our guests personally!

    Checkout is from 8 to 10 am.

    Early check-in is possible subject to availability and by prior arrangement.

    Late checkout is possible for a fee and subject to availability – if you are interested, please let us know when you’re here.
