Hotel Gfell, Bozen, South Tyrol

• Stunning scenery: Hotel Gfell’s position takes in a jaw-dropping panorama of forests, meadows and mountain peaks – each of its 17 charming bedrooms has a different view of The Dolomites. The traditional mountain inn has been sympathetically expanded into a small, personal hotel, incorporating old barns, building directly into the hillside and blending beautifully with the surrounding nature.
  
  
• Quiet luxury: Every aspect of the hotel has been thoughtfully considered: almost all rooms have direct access to nature, natural materials like oak and stone take centre stage, all the food is locally derived. Restaurant Schonblick (meaning, appropriately, ‘beautiful view’,) delivers Tyrolean classics made with the finest local ingredients, served on a panoramic terrace or inside the genteel dining room.
  
  
• Rest and relaxation: The hotel’s founders believe in the healing power of nature to help you forget the stresses of daily life. Take daily trips to the forest sauna, relax in the mountain garden with a herbal infusion, or settle into a cosy alcove with mountain views and snuggly pillows with a book. For more active rest, the hotel can hire out bikes, backpacks and walking poles, and the staff can advise on the best routes to take.
