Relais & Chateaux Hotel Castel Fragsburg

High above the valley of Merano on the sun-drenched southern slopes of the Dolomites, this boutique mountain hotel delivers sweeping views and old-world charm. About 4 km from Merano city center and a short drive from Trauttmansdorff Castle Gardens and Fragsburg Waterfall. Pet-friendly and family-friendly luxury stays.

Housed in a 17th‑century castle with privately kept character, the property blends historic flair with modern comforts. The intimate hotel has roughly two dozen rooms and suites, many with private balconies, minibars, air conditioning and bathrobes. Rooms offer bathtubs or showers and valley-facing views; room features vary by category.

A full spa menu includes massages, body treatments and facials alongside a sauna, steam bath and hot tub. Take a dip in the seasonal outdoor pool, keep up routines in the fitness room or join a yoga session. There’s a library and picnic area, concierge and tour desk, plus luggage services, parking and transfer options. Babysitting is available for families (surcharge).

Complimentary high-speed Wi‑Fi throughout the property and four meeting rooms make this a practical choice for small events. Additional conveniences include luggage storage and a train-station drop-off service.

Two on-site restaurants serve regional South Tyrolean cuisine and local flavors, backed up by a bar and poolside bar for evening drinks. Buffet breakfast is offered daily for a fee, and limited room service is available.
