Gasthof Kohlern 1130 m

Beautiful location with stunning views...

Liked: Although a bit on the higher end (price wise), you totally feel the ‘premium’ experience when you enter the property. All staff is extremely friendly, speak their languages, and are there to make you have the best stay at their place. The property itself has been renovated with eye for detail, but that applies to everything. Backpack to borrow, umbrella to borrow, extra towels for the pool - it’s all there. And that simply continues when you decide to have dinner at their restaurant. Good food, sometimes with a twist, nice wines and great service - sometimes also with a twist. Would 100% recommend and if I’m around again, I’ll be back.
Disliked: The shower head requires too much handholding for my taste. Small fix. Also, it’s quite a trip up. Not something you do a couple of times a day. There is the Kohlern bahn that can take you up and down, but keep this in mind when you book. The building is old (but renovated), but that does mean you can hear others from time to time.

Straight out of a storybook...simply...

Liked: Joseph and Christine run not only the best hotel but arguably provide one of the best overall experiences you can get in worldwide travel today. We were on a family trip with throughout London, Edinburgh, Malta, Bologna, and Venice for 2 weeks and it wasn't until we reached their storybook Gasthof palace perched on a hill high above Bolzano that one realizes how absolutely perfect a hotel and its staff can really be. From Nadine in the spa to Anda serving drinks on the patio overlooking the Alps to the pitch perfect wait staff at dinner in the dining room, everyone and everything was simply surreal. Breakfast was amazing… Fresh pastries, fresh jams, fresh, squeeze, juice, and eggs made to order… All with a view that is out of a storybook. The location is somewhere that most people would never dream would be even possible to stay. Think: a view out of the "Sound of Music" with the service of a five star hotel. Joseph and Christine make you feel like family from the moment you arrive to the sadness you feel when you have to depart. It is the type of place where you immediately start examining your calendar diary to try to figure out when you can come back. A rare gem...and at the top of the list, with all of the experiences of our travels in 35+ different countries over the years.
Disliked: I wish I booked my stay for another week! Two days was way too short for us! Could have a bigger selection of beers (for the petty American tastes like mine!)
