Brass-accented alpine lodge
The lodge overlooks the village steeples from the Gastig slope, updating Tyrolean woodwork with polished brass and bold color.
What it’s good at
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
it’s a jewel of a boutique hotel with commanding views of the steeple-studded town and the Tyrolean Alps it calls home.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
The village center and the Galzigbahn gondola are a ten-minute walk downhill from the quiet Gastig hillside.
The rooms
Wool carpeting and plush linens warm the bedrooms, and windows look out across the Tyrolean Alps.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Water flows from an indoor lounge lit by crystal pendants into a heated outdoor stainless steel basin.
The sauna
Slatted timber benches face floor-to-ceiling glass looking straight out across snow-covered slopes to the valley.
At the table
Pine-paneled parlors serve regional Tyrolean dishes, and an arched brick cellar holds tastings beneath the lodge.
How it began

The Fahrner family opened a bed and breakfast here in the 1960s, before completely transforming the hotel in 2024.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
