Miramonti Boutique Hotel, Merano / South Tyrol (ITA)

Category: Mountains

After spectacular renovations, the Miramonti Boutique Hotel above the rooftops of Meran is surely considered to be one of the top spots in the South Tyrolean mountains. And to be honest: The atmosphere is simply: spectacular!

“We want to be known as an alpine hideaway that has something magical. Far away from the daily routine. Very close to nature”, says Klaus Alber, who runs this pretty place together with his wife Carmen. And we think he is absolutely right. When you stand on the terrace and the sun is shining and you look down upon Meran, you think: This is definitely a magical hideaway.

The Rooms

There are two types of rooms right now: refurbished rooms in the main house, all with some very nice details, comfortable beds and specials like a fireplace or a little in-room-sauna. All materials are 100 percent handcrafted from Italy and mainly from the region of South Tyrol. Also the views through the grand glass windows: stunning!

The rooms in the newly built Owner’s house have been created very homogeneously. The walls are made of spruce, the bathrooms are integrated, with a glass wall and some wonderful details. The materials: white fir, concrete, sheep’s wool, hand-woven linen, tanned leather. One hundred percent made in Italy. With the exception of a few beds: they are from the Scandinavian top brand Hästens – who used to be purveyor to the Royal House of Sweden.

Sky House

In 2019 Miramonti has established a new spectacular Sky House above the main building. It is equipped with a sleeping room in the basement and a big living room on the first floor with magnificent views of the Meraner Berge.

The Wellness Area

The new spa has been thought through very carefully with architecturally very sophisticated materials: some of the hundreds of years old bedrock under the building has been transformed into floors and water taps. There is a sauna, a steam bath, a forest sauna on stilts, treatment rooms and an enormous relaxation area, which is a great place to take it easy. In addition to the “normal” wellness, you find a new Yoga house above the main building facing the mountains. In there you will also find a fully equipped gym.

Highlight

The Pools. The main one: 16 metres long and five metres wide, it leads outdoors into the impressive landscape. The whole year it has a warm temperature of 32 °C and is filled with healthful brine water. Since 2019, there is also a Japanese Onsen pool a little above the house. The water temperature here is 40 degrees. It is open all year round.

The Restaurants

Even though it’s a boutique hotel, the Miramonti offers three restaurants, especially in which South Tyrolean dishes made from regional products are offered.

Ideal for

Couples with a feeling for beautiful things, stressed out managers who need to recharge their batteries, Ladies who are on a trip searching for themselves or families with plenty of time. The Miramonti is not so ideal for small children, but they are definitely made very welcome.
