Hotel Schwarzschmied
Contemporary Alpine wellness retreat with earthy design: larch, spruce, marble from the Vinschgau Valley, porphyry tiles, handwoven sheep's wool carpets, and custom lamps by Harry Thaler. The pace is deliberately slow. Yoga, hiking, and spa treatments over sightseeing.
Request a Rooftop Room or Rooftop Suite — the terrace views across the Etsch Valley are the best in the house
Why It Matters
Member of Design Hotels (and Marriott Bonvoy bookable), Mr & Mrs Smith, and Tablet Hotels. Runs entirely on solar electricity. Partnership with Susanne Kaufmann natural cosmetics for all spa treatments. The Rooftop Suite 75m² won the German Design Award 2019. Owned and operated by brothers Klaus and Moritz Dissertori as part of the Alto Hotel Group.
A 68-room contemporary wellness hotel set among vineyards and orchards in Lana, a small South Tyrolean town midway between Bolzano and Merano. Originally built in 1981 and later gutted and redesigned by Christina Biasi-von Berg, the property leans hard into slow food, yoga, and Susanne Kaufmann spa treatments. This is the Italian Alps, but the name, the vibe, and the larder are all thoroughly Tyrolean — not a plate of carbonara in sight.
