"Do yourself a favor and book the bath:) As a chef myself at Relais Chateaux properties I was thrilled with all of the food we had at both restaurants, but actually preferred the Orangerie dinners surprisingly."

Relais & Chateaux Hotel Castel Fragsburg, a wellness hotel, was originally a 17th-century hunting retreat of noble origins. Now proudly recognised as 'the smallest five-star hotel in the Italian Alps' and a member of the Relais & Châteaux network, it offers panoramic mountain views from its verandas and decks. The property boasts a large garden with a heated outdoor pool and the Spa Castellum Natura wellness centre.

Luxury Accommodations

All 20 individually furnished rooms include comforts such as pillow menus and air conditioning, as well as thoughtful touches like separate sitting areas and bathrobes. The room offers spacious bathrooms with double sinks and shower and tub. Featuring a mountain-view balcony, this elegant suite is complete with a seating area, a minibar, and a satellite flat-screen TV.

Gourmet Dining

The fine-dining restaurant, Prezioso, is headed by Michelin-starred chef Egon Heiss and serves traditional cuisine and Mediterranean dishes featuring local produce. A typical tasting menu might include alpine charfish, risotto with wild herbs, and tender venison fillet. Breakfast offers eggs and crepes to order, cold meats and cheeses, and a changing roster of fresh juices and smoothies.

Wellness & Adventure

Guests can enjoy various treatments and massages, a sauna, a Turkish Bath, and a panoramic lodge with a wooden bathtub at the Spa Castellum Natura. Adventurous travelers may like the ropes course, hiking/biking, and rock climbing nearby. A short hike from the hotel, guests can see Europe's tallest waterfall.

Convenient Location

Relais & Chateaux Hotel Castel Fragsburg is 8 km from Merano and 35 km from Bolzano. Nearby landmarks include Falschauer Biotop (2 km), Knottnkino (3 km), and Burg Katzenstein (0.5 km). The resort provides free WiFi in public areas, free valet parking, and free train station drop-off.

“Castel Fragsburg, perched high in the SudTyrol Alps near Merano, is a Relais & Châteaux property offering an intimate experience with a Michelin-starred restaurant and comprehensive wellness facilities. From its historic castle ambiance to modern design elements, the hotel cultivates personalized guest experiences. It is, in my opinion, an exclusive alpine retreat for those seeking both luxury and culinary excellence.”
