What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Some of its walls have stood for 800 years, yet within them, creativity thrives - artists in residence craft new works, pop-up dining experiences bring global chefs to the table.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Piazza delle Erbe and the old town arcades are a short walk away, while leafy promenades lead toward the Dolomites.
The rooms
Bedrooms are painted in earthy tones of sage and terracotta, paired with retro tiled bathrooms and in-room yoga mats.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Dark green ceramic tiles line the heated outdoor pool, surrounded by terracotta brick pavers and ivy-covered walls.
The sauna
Built from pale aspen wood, the 90-degree Finnish sauna looks straight out across the private garden park.
The studio and gym
The studio hosts morning yoga across herringbone floors, and the vaulted gym is fitted with wooden Nohrd equipment.
Luna Bar
Corduroy stools line the fluted timber counter, where South Tyrolean natural wines and negronis pour under warm pendant lighting.
Luna Restaurant
An ornate stained glass ceiling crowns the dining room, where tables serve regional Italian dishes made from seasonal ingredients.
At the table
Bistro tables sit beneath fringed parasols on the gravel garden terrace for light lunches and afternoon spritzes.
How it began
The hotel takes its moonlight name from crescent pastries baked here centuries ago, when the building served as Bolzano's first inn.
