What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Meltar Boutique Hotel is located inside a restored old farmhouse… making it a perfectly tranquil getaway from the tourist crush of the Veneto.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Golf Club Asiago surrounds the grounds, with cross-country ski trails cutting through the larch and pine forests just beyond.
The rooms
Rooms keep their original vaulted timber ceilings and parquet floors, looking straight out across the surrounding mountain pastures.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated indoor hydromassage pool sits beneath slatted timber ceilings, and an outdoor tub looks out across the lawn.
The spa
Tiered benches in the pine sauna look onto the woods, and loungers sit outside on the sun terrace.
Restaurant
Il Meltarino
Picture windows look out on pastures and pine woods, and tables serve local seasonal dishes beneath timber-paneled ceilings.
At the table
The lounge bar pours regional wines beside a monumental stone fireplace under vaulted timber ceilings.
How it began
The property takes its name from the ancient Cimbrian word for marshland, spoken by the plateau's earliest settlers.
