What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Per fortuna abbiamo trovato posto a pranzo. Cucina splendida come sempre . Un bel ricordo dei tempi passati quando ero militare a Bressanone e cenavamo qualche volta al maso . Tutti felici allora ed oggi.”
“Che dire luogo cibo e personale tutto bellissimo. Ambiente davvero bello stube d'altri tempi che trasmette calore fisico e spirituale. 1400 metri e sole diretto piacevolissimo. Cibo casalingo preparato con amore dalla gentilissima signora che ci ha servito. Strudel da impazzire. Ottima grappa offerta. Panorama superbo.”
“The best pasta with the best view…it was a pleasant surprise to find this place in the middle of the hike to Punta Quaira.”
“Nice little hidden place. Homemade and solid South Tyrolean food. Good Wine Card. The Schlutzer are produced by the owner, which is a very nice lady. Better reserve ahead. The view from the terrace on the valley of Brixen and Dolomites is beautiful.”
“Quei posti ormai rari anche sulle Dolomiti!!! Tutti i piatti tipici sono prodotti al momento da una signora gentile che trasmette amore per il suo lavoro Ambiente famigliare, intimo e molto accogliente in cima alla montagna gode di una vista spettacolare Merita sicuramente una visita”
“I think I'm the only one from Hawaii that has ever been to Gostnerhof hotel and restaurant. That would make my day, but I would not be disappointed to shared this wonderful jewel with another one from Hawaii. Please post a review if you were/will be here. Wonderful home cooked food with a spectacular view of the Dolomites.”
