Hotels Own Introduction
An Intimate Alpine Hideaway
Perched at 1,500 metres in the southeastern reaches of South Tyrol, at the foot of the striking twin peaks of Weißhorn and Schwarzhorn, the Fine Hotel & Hideaway Berghoferin is a true alpine gem. With just 13 suites, it is surrounded by rolling forested hills and flowering meadows, deeply rooted in the history, culture and values of its landscape.
Designed with aesthetic clarity and meticulous attention to detail, the hotel is both a place of savoir-vivre — where enjoyment and cultural exchange unfold in a refined atmosphere — and a sanctuary for those seeking tranquillity, renewal and an authentic connection to nature.
Suites with a View
Thirteen spacious, light-filled suites are spread across three floors, each individually designed. Guests may choose between loft-style living and sleeping areas or classic layouts with separate bedrooms and lounges, often complemented by two bathrooms. Sunlit verandas and one or two loggia balconies extend the living space outdoors, framing uninterrupted views of pristine alpine scenery, sweeping valleys and dramatic mountain panoramas.
Culinary Art & Salon Culture
Fine dining restaurant Die Saligen celebrates culinary artistry, distinguished wine culture and heartfelt service within an intimate, elegant setting. Each dish reflects precision, creativity and a deep respect for regional ingredients.
At the heart of the hotel, Zeno’s Bar forms a welcoming focal point at the end of the lobby. From early morning until late evening, it offers discreet corners and cosy salons for aromatic coffees, refined teas, classic aperitifs and sophisticated after-dinner drinks — a space to gather, unwind and savour the moment.
Lido Alpin-Spa
With sweeping mountain views and a sense of eternal summer among larch-shaded alpine meadows, the Lido Alpin-Spa provides a holistic retreat for body and mind. Treatments featuring exquisite natural cosmetics, open-air massages and the healing power of alpine flora create a deeply restorative experience.
A selection of saunas, a solar-heated outdoor pool set amid bucolic mountain landscapes and a wide range of outdoor activities complete this immersive approach to well-being — where nature itself becomes part of the ritual.
