Boutique Hotel Pachers

Hotel Guide

What's the Story

• For three generations, the Huber family has poured their heart into this historic home, transforming the traditional Hotel Pacher into the inspiring retreat it is today, simply known as Pachers. It’s a testament to passionate hospitality, felt in every thoughtful detail.

Design & Ambiance

• Forget preconceived notions of alpine clichés. Pachers is a revelation in modern sophistication. Think sleek lines, high-quality natural materials, and an innate sense of calm that permeates every space. Each room is a unique canvas, individually designed to offer a sanctuary of comfort and style. Many boast private balconies, patios, or serene gardens that frame breathtaking vistas – whether it’s the verdant vineyards, the historic abbey across the way, or the dramatic Dolomites beyond. It’s a place that feels effortlessly chic, yet deeply rooted.

Wine & Dine

• At Pachers, gastronomy is an art form deeply connected to the land. The hotel’s restaurant champions a 'new era of enjoyment,' harmonizing the soulful flavors of Southern Italy with the splendid simplicity of alpine cuisine. Herbs plucked fresh from their own garden elevate seasonal dishes, creating a dining experience that's both refined and grounded. But the true star here is the wine. Pachers sits proudly in the Eisacktal, home to Italy's most northerly wine region, renowned for its crisp, mineral-driven white wines. The Huber family cultivates their own Pacherhof wines – expect exquisite Grüner Veltliner, Sylvaner, Gewürztraminer, and Pinot Grigio – which you can savor directly in their atmospheric tasting room or during a guided tour of their historic cellars and sun-dappled vineyards. The breakfast, universally lauded by guests, is a joyous spread that sets the perfect tone for exploring.

Wellness & Spa

• Pachers understands that true wellness is personal. Their unique "Self-SPA" concept redefines relaxation, offering a space where you can truly connect with your senses. Discover a serene wellness area complete with a steam sauna, Finnish sauna, cold bath, and both indoor and outdoor pools – all designed to soothe body and mind. The focus on natural products ensures a holistic approach to self-care.

Sustainability

• The hotel encourages you to blend work and leisure, offering an inspiring environment for a "workation." It’s also deeply committed to sustainability, proudly bearing the South Tyrol Sustainability Label and certified as a KlimaHaus Welcome® and ClimaHotel®, reflecting a thoughtful approach to the environment.

Budget

• Rates start at EUR 242 per night, including half board.
