Hotel Pienzenau am Schlosspark  

In Merano's green Schlosspark pocket, a short walk from Trauttmansdorff Castle Gardens and Rametz Castle. Merano Thermal Baths and the Kurhaus are just a quick drive away, with a golf course practically on the doorstep.

A small, romantic 4-star hotel with just 30 rooms that feel intimate rather than anonymous. Rooms are air-conditioned and feature minibars, private balconies, down comforters and Italian linens, plus bathrooms with bathtubs or showers and bidets. The lobby's fireplace and park-facing views keep the vibe warm and quietly stylish.

A full wellness setup: spa treatments, massages and facials, plus a sauna, steam room, indoor and outdoor pools and a health club. Concierge and tour desk help you explore, free valet parking is available onsite, and pets are welcome. Wake up to park or castle views and step out for golf, gardens or a thermal-baths day.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property keeps you connected. Express check-in and check-out, luggage storage and an airport shuttle (surcharge) keep travel smooth.

An on-site restaurant and bar/lounge serve local cuisine and relaxed evening drinks. There's also a coffee shop/café, limited-room service and breakfast available for a fee.
