Hotel Salgart has one of the most idyllic locations in Merano. This is a family-run hotel where they make every guest feel at home. The centre of Merano's just a 20-minute walk away or you can use the local buses that stop around a five-minute walk away from the hotel.

Mountain views from all around the hotel

The hotel's on the outskirts of the town, surrounded by vineyards and orchards with views over the stunning Etch Valley. The rooms have been renovated in a modern style with balconies either facing the rear of the hotel, where you can enjoy the peace and quiet, or over the pool, where you can take advantage of the sun. We love the hotels outdoor pool, it's the best place to relax and cool off after a day discovering the local walks. The new dining room has panoramic views and they use fresh produce in their South Tyrolean and Italian dishes.
