78 rooms behind an unassuming façade — and a private garden that leaves Bolzano outside.
A hotel in the middle of the city — and yet entirely surrounded by green. Behind an unassuming façade, a garden opens that changes everything. Parkhotel Mondschein feels less like a city hotel and more like a hidden retreat, with a history stretching back to the 14th century.
"Which is why the wrong people rarely sit at the next table."
City noise outside, calm within
Behind an unassuming façade in the middle of Bolzano, a large private garden opens up — old trees, loungers, long tables in the green. The city noise stays outside; inside, it is suddenly quiet.
The whole house
Mediterranean cooking under Bolzano's trees
Luna is the culinary heart of the house — a modern, light cuisine with Mediterranean influences that puts quality and atmosphere before effect. In summer the table moves outside, under the trees of the garden.

A wood oven in a 14th-century vault
Alto Pizza sits in a historic vault of the building, whose history reaches back to the 14th century.

Rooms
Quiet rooms in warm tones, with the design sensibility of the house and views over the garden or the rooftops of Bolzano.
Suites
Generous suites with their own living area, plenty of light and, in part, sweeping views of the surrounding mountains.
Bath & Interiors
Bathrooms and details that carry the design idea of the house through — natural materials, quiet colours, carefully curated objects.
Bolzano is one of South Tyrol's most interesting cities — Italian character, alpine surroundings, a lively cultural mix. The hotel is central: the old town, cafés, markets and restaurants are all within walking distance, the train station only minutes away. The park, meanwhile, provides the retreat. The wine regions and the mountains are minutes away.
Run by a creative owner family with a clear feel for design, culture and atmosphere. The philosophy behind it: a place that wants to be more than just accommodation. It shows in the design, in a programme of yoga and retreats, and in a community spirit that opens the bar, restaurant and garden to the whole city.
Modern, light cuisine with Mediterranean influences, focus on quality and atmosphere. The bar is a central meeting point — open, communicative, relevant even for non-staying guests. The garden is a key part of the experience: eating and drinking outside in the green, in the middle of the city.
No façade that promises anything.
Eating and drinking in the garden in the middle of the city — rarely found anywhere else in Bolzano.
