This is an excellent hotel. Our room and bathroom were modern, spacious and clean. It is an extremely quiet hotel, as it is located on the crest of a hill on the outskirts of Bolzano, apart from the traffic of the city. The views from the hotel dining area and terrace of the Dolomites are very special. They are mesmerizing. The breakfast is lavish. Everything you can think of is available. Eggs are made to order. We stayed three days and had scrambled eggs with chives each day which were delicious. You can order several types of coffee. They even had a whole honey comb on one of the several buffet tables, which we had never run across at any restaurant. Parking is ample. Several people have commented about walking to the city. We are two 80-year-olds and had no problem walking down the very, short steep side road to the main street. From there one can walk along a leafy, pretty, tree-lined promenade, which runs parallel to the river - which by the way can not be seen when the trees and shrubbery are in bloom - to the bridge that leads into the center of the city. The Oezki Museum is just a few minutes walk form this intersection. It took us less than 25 minutes to walk from the hotel along the promenade to the museum. We highly recommend it. The hotel provides a list of restaurants in town. The two we tried were very good and moderately priced. Parking is a problem in town, but with patience and luck one can find a place not too far away. Please remember that in Italy blue-lined parking spots are not free; white-marked spots are. We did not walk to the restaurants. We drove using our GPS, which was not a problem. The streets are very narrow. one-way sometimes, and confusing. It would have been a challenge without our GPS. We found it a treat to stay at this hotel and highly recommend it for a relaxing, comfortable stay. The beauty of the views cannot...
Read moreAlthough a little off the beaten track, this hotel was a gem. It is tucked away on a hillside overlooking vineyards and mountains, very nice views! It is located about a 20-25-minute walk along the river from the center of Bolzano. There is nothing in the near vicinity, but the hotel has a restaurant open to guests only. We stayed for three nights and had dinner there all three nights. Good food, well cooked by the owner, but could do with some extra trimmings, eg sauce. Nevertheless, it tasted good and it was very convenient to be able to have dinner at the hotel. The room was exceptionally clean and spacious. Rather hard bed, but having stayed in a number of hotels in Germany and Italy, I think that is standard. We had a beautiful balcony overlooking the vineyards with a table and two chairs. There is a lift in the building. There was a fridge on the landing (3rd floor) with beer, soft drinks and wine. There is a form that you fill out and present upon check-out which we thought was a nice touch. Free parking just outside. The breakfast buffet was outstanding! Beautifully displayed, with everything you could think of and more. Plenty of choices. All in all, we were very happy with our stay, very nice and friendly host and hostess. The only drawback is the location and the very steep hill you have to walk up to the hotel when coming back, but on the other hand the surroundings are beautiful...
Read more|Exceptional hospitality in the most perfect accomodation at Bolzano.|We had a large lovely room with large balcony which gave wonderful views over the surrounding vineyards, the valley and the nearby castle. Perfect to sit out on or even have your own simple meal bought from a local supermarket taking in the views of the valley and Bolzano. Breakfast is the best continental breakfast we have ever encountered anywhere - the choice is immense and all of the very highest quality, and is served on the terrace, again with the wonderful views.||The hospitality of the Family Hanny is really exceptional. Warm, friendly and always keen to assist, Margot and Karl make your stay perfect.|Bolzano centre is a 5 minute drive or a 20 minute walk along the river. Bolzano can be very difficult to park in as it is so popular with tourists. As parking is plentiful and free at Hotel Hanny, we avoided the parking difficulty in Bolzano. This made our three day visit to Bolzano an overwhelming success. Very highly...
