THE CASTEL Hörtenberg TRANSFORMED INTO A 5-STAR HOTEL
The Castel Hörtenberg was for many centuries a private residence and at most a monument to be admired from outside. In November 2019, the hotel was opened after a renovation in compliance with the dictates of cultural heritage protection.
P.re.st srl was commissioned as Project Manager together with architect Peter Kompatscher and restorer Markus Pescoller to restore this little gem to create an oasis of peace in the city centre for their guests. Their choice was not to indulge in facile historicism, but rather to prepare a modern five-star hotel embellished by such a rich past.
In the 21 suites and 3 garden suites on 4 floors, the original 16th century stuccoes, frescoes from the following century and paintings from the 19th century have been preserved, as well as the tiled stove in the stube.
A stay can be an excellent opportunity to admire the architecture and interior design and enjoy all the comforts of a 5-star hotel.
Throughout the building, one can also admire the wrought irons blackened by time, small windows carved into each wall and views of the Dolomites. The two loft suites under the roof have a special elegance.
The cellar, as well as the rooms, retains the low vaults that are also found in Bolzano's arcades. Throughout the year, it is possible to use the outdoor but heated swimming pool, surrounded by an airy garden overlooked by three newly built suites and a wellness area.
