Property details

An Italian mountain retreat brimming with South Tyrolean soul food and a rooftop infinity pool - includes breakfast, a restaurant voucher, and a bottle of prosecco
  • South Tyrolean cordiality: Perched in a sun-drenched spot overlooking Merano, Marini’s Giardino Hotel offers enchanting views across the vast Adige Valley. As a refined, adults-friendly boutique retreat, the hotel strikes a perfect balance between serene tranquillity, sophisticated design, and warm family hospitality. Here, Mediterranean gardens and light-filled rooms blend the cosy charm of an Alpine home with the effortless "dolce far niente" of Italy. It's the perfect hideaway for those looking to embrace a slower pace of life.


  • Delicacies with a touch of dolce vita: In the in-house à la carte restaurant Il Giardinetto, alpine tradition and Mediterranean finesse merge. Fresh, regional products form the basis for creative South Tyrolean compositions with an Italian touch, which are reinterpreted by the kitchen team with a lot of love and craftsmanship. Don't miss the iconic terrazza with a ravishing view, perfect for both dinner dining and breakfast bites alike. 


  • Pure R&R: After Adige Valley adventures, the hotel's wellness paradise awaits. Here you'll find both peaceful regeneration with sauna sessions and massages (fees apply), plus refreshing moments in the natural swimming pond - set amid the lush natural gardens that lend the hotel its name. The highlight of the hotel is undoubtedly the rooftop pool, adorned with picture-book mountain views. There's even a cold pool for extra-revitalising dips.

Location and what's nearby

Marini's giardino digs, Hauptstraße 28, 39019 Dorf Tirol, Italy

High above Merano, Dorf Tirol nestles sunnily on the slopes of the Adige Valley - a box seat between palm trees, vineyards and iconic peaks rising into the azure of the South Tyrolean sky. Walking tour along historic irrigation channels lead past shining orchards through sparse forests - always accompanied by the scent of relaxing mountain nature.

In the warm months, panoramic hikes such as in the Texel Group Nature Park, panoramic bike tours along the Merano promenade or a diversion to Trauttmansdorff Castle with its picturesque gardens are tempting. Winter shows its mild side here - epic for excursions to nearby ski resorts or strolls between Merano's arcades, boutiques and cafés, which give your holiday destination casual togetherness with a pleasant touch of sophistication.
