The Hotel’s Window

Sat atop a mountain ledge overlooking the city of Merano lies Castel Fragsburg, a magical place where one never gets tired of the breathtaking view over the valley and the South Tyrolean mountain peaks while enjoying the peaceful tranquility far from the hustle and bustle, with fresh, clear mountain air and countless hours of sunshine. Now and then, the owner Alexander Ortner loves to pause on the panoramic terrace for a few moments and let his thoughts wander over the valley.

Hotel’s Location

The exclusive hotel is located in South Tyrol, Italy’s northernmost section, just south of the Austrian border. All ways lead to Castel Fragsburg, and guests can travel by car, train, or plane. When traveling by car, guests are advised to add “Via Labers” to their navigation system to ensure the safest and most convenient route. For those who prefer to travel by train, their final destination should be either Merano or Bolzano. The hotel will happily arrange a transfer service from both these railway stations. Should the option be flying in, the nearest airports are the ones located in Bolzano, Innsbruck, Verona, Milan (Linate or Malpensa), and Venice.
