The Golden Season in Merano: Autumn at Hotel Castel
When South Tyrol puts on its colorful autumn dress, the most beautiful time in the Merano region begins. These golden days are also celebrated at the Hotel Castel, an Alpine-Mediterranean retreat for connoisseurs.
September 7, 2022
The grapes of the region are already heavy-sweet and ripe for the harvest. All around, the change of seasons bathes the leaves in vibrant shades of red, yellow and orange. Temperatures are still pleasantly lukewarm. However, especially on the many mountains and hills of the region, a crystal clear breeze is already blowing around our noses, with white peaks already appearing at the very top. Autumn is here - and with it probably the most beautiful season in the Merano region.
This one brings best in the Castel, which was rebuilt only last year and partly new built, to. The five-star house in Dorf-Tirol skillfully combines cordial service with laidback luxury and especially a lot of privacy - for quiet days in an Alpine-Mediterranean dream location. Hiking, going to the spa, eating well: All signs point to enjoyment.

Culinary views
In terms of gourmet enjoyment, the Castel was upgraded last year: As the centerpiece of the new building, two restaurants were created, which are included in the room rate and boast great panoramic views of Merano. Chef Gerhard Wieser and his kitchen team are responsible for the excellent culinary concept of the two restaurants.

Castel ÀlaCarte
On the one hand, in the course of half board, you dine in the à la carte in an elegant ambience and, according to Falstaff, the best hotel cuisine in South Tyrol. The golden twilight of autumn days falls into the restaurant through the large window fronts and the glass roof, and later the starry ceiling drapes over the diners. And when Chef Gerhard Wieser serves an excellent menu consisting of three starters, three entrees, three main courses and three desserts, the atmosphere is perfect.
Castel finedining
At Castel finedining guests dine exclusively on one of only five tables with a view of Merano. Chef Wieser and his team have already been awarded two Michelin stars, 5 toques/19 points Gault&Millau and 2020 with the "best service in South Tyrol" by falstaff for their culinary masterpieces in the exclusive panorama restaurant - and rightly so!

Space for recreation

The accommodations feature large window fronts and wonderfully soft beds. Comfort meets modern interior. And then it's off to the next Castel experience, such as a chairlift ride to Merano or a day trip to Bolzano.
