GOLDENE ROSE KARTHAUS

A luxurious retreat nestled in a South Tyrolean valley- Goldene Rose Karthaus puts its natural surroundings front and centre. Fragrant larch forests and the peaks of the Dolomites are the backdrop for the tranquil spaces of the hotel. Bedrooms and suites are light-filled and blend local materials with contemporary design adding to the calming vibe. In the wood panelled restaurant- a skilful team conjures South Tyrolean delicacies with imagination and creativity- using herbs from nearby meadows and organic vegetables from the kitchen garden. A vaulted cellar in the former Carthusian monastery houses an impressive wine collection- with an expert in-house sommelier on hand to help select just the right bottle. The hotel puts a strong focus on wellness rituals with an impressive spa- inspired by the elements of water- stone and fire. A walkway among the treetops leads to the open-air sauna- with views over the forests. Melt into the steaming waters of the outdoor pools- or gather around the fire under the stars in a glass pavilion. And for ultimate relaxation- reserve the private spa crafted from South Tyrolean stone- and let the marble steam bath- Finnish sauna and ice grotto ease any cares away. Outside the hotel- miles of unspoilt hiking trails allow for complete immersion in beautiful nature- while during the colder months the landscape transforms into a winter wonderland- perfect for ski enthusiasts. Goldene Rose Karthaus is a Small Luxury hotels of the World property.
