Goldene Rose Karthaus  

In the heart of Certosa di Senales (Karthaus), high in Val Senales about 30 km west of Merano. Juval Castle marks the valley entrance and the Ötztal Alps and Hochjochferner Glacier are within easy reach, with ski lifts and alpine trails nearby.

A soulful 4-star alpine refuge that blends old-world inn charm with clean designer touches. Warm wood, ancient fabrics reimagined in modern colors and simple designer pieces set a cozy, contemporary tone. Rooms feature fine linens, top mattresses and turndown service for a quietly luxurious stay.

Wellness-focused amenities include a spa center, sauna, steam bath and dedicated massage rooms with GLACISSE skincare options. There’s a bar, café, library and BBQ area, plus a tour desk to book glacier hikes, valley walks and ski activities. Family-friendly playrooms, on-site parking and pet-friendly rooms make it easy for groups and pets to feel at home.

Wireless internet/Wi‑Fi is available throughout the hotel, and staff can arrange transfers and tour assistance.

The hotel’s kitchen serves South Tyrolean and regional-Mediterranean dishes using valley-sourced dairy, game, wild herbs and organic vegetables from the garden. Gourmet Half-Board is included—hearty breakfast, afternoon homemade cake and teas, and a crafted dinner—plus an on-site restaurant, bar and café for lighter bites and drinks.
