Sustainable luxury is our goal!

Part of our electricity comes from the sun, via 501 m² of photovoltaics on the roof.

• Following modern renovation work, our hotel is certified to the South Tyrolean KlimaHaus/CasaClima A standard.
• On top of that, there are 124 m² of solar thermal collectors.
• A gas-fired combined heat and power plant generates electricity and heat at the same time, right here in the hotel.
• The electricity we buy in comes from Alperia: 100% renewable, from South Tyrol.
• We like to use heat twice: through heat recovery, and at night we cover water that has already been heated or feed it back into the system.

We attach great importance to the economical use of water.

• Through the use of water-saving fittings, water treatment facilities, regular checks for water loss, and the use of biological cleaning agents, we minimise water consumption and contribute to the protection of this precious resource.
• For irrigation at night, we use seeped groundwater from our own well.
• Our toilets are equipped with water-saving flushing systems.
• The natural pool: 27 metres, chlorine-free. Its own filter system looks after the water. Heated from March to October. Long laps, clear water, the sky above.

We practice consistent waste separation and promote the recycling of valuable materials.

• By using recyclable and environmentally friendly materials and products, we reduce waste and support the circular economy.
• In your room, you’ll find water bottles provided for your stay. Fill them with our treated spring water free of charge at the fountains and water points distributed on the grounds!

We attach great importance to fresh and regional products and support local producers wherever possible.

• Our kitchen spoils you with seasonal ingredients from the surrounding area. The focus is on quality and seasonality.
• We are happy to cook vegan or vegetarian dishes for you and prepare your own menu. Otherwise, we also provide wholesome alternatives to fish and meat.
• Our head chef Eddi turns vegetable and meat trimmings from kitchen prep into stocks and sauces.

South Tyrol’s sweet south impresses with a rich variety of cultural and sustainable experiences. We want to play our part in this.

• Here, you can get to know South Tyrolean life, drink wine from the surrounding vineyards, look into the cellars of Kaltern’s more than 40 wine producers, or discover the power of nature on a forest hike with our trained herbal expert.
• Explore the surrounding landscape in a sustainable way with our bicycles, which are provided free of charge, and use public transport to get comfortably to the city for a stroll or to local mountain Mt Mendola/Mendel.
• For a car-free holiday, we provide you with a free guest card. If you arrive by bus or train, we will gladly organise a shuttle service to the hotel.
• Our weekly programme offers experiences in nature to give you an environmentally conscious holiday feeling.
