Schenna / Berlin, April 2025 - There are places that touch you - quietly, deeply and lastingly. Places that you don't just visit, but experience. The Hotel Hohenwart in Scena/Schenna (South Tyrol) is such a place. Up here, on a sunny high plateau above Merano, alpine naturalness, genuine hospitality and stylish comfort come together. Those who enter here are not only welcomed, but embraced. Not just welcomed, but seen.
What guests feel here is difficult to put into words - and yet so clearly tangible: #TheHohenwartFeeling.
It is the sum of small moments: a smile at the right time, the scent of lavender in the garden, the view of the vastness of the South Tyrolean mountains - and the honest feeling of being welcome.
Cordiality meets variety - Hohenwart for everyone
The family-run 4-star superior hotel impresses with its authentic, lovingly personal character. Now run by the third generation of the Mair family, the hotel thrives on the different styles of its hosts, on togetherness and openness to individual vacation wishes.
Whether you are looking for peace and quiet in the stylish main building, casual alpine style in Haus Christine, inspired by nature in the adults-only wellness area VistaSpa or a lively family atmosphere around the FamilySpa - diversity is the philosophy here. The vacation experience is as individual as the people. Or as the hotel itself says: "To each his own Hohenwart."
Gerti Mair, long-time hostess with heart, puts it in a nutshell: "When I think of Hohenwart, there is one place that is particularly close to my heart: the panoramic terrace. This place is more than just a beautiful view - it's a feeling. A feeling of freedom, security and arrival."
Equally formative: the way we live together. Guests, staff and family form a unit that extends far beyond the hotel doors. Sepp Mair, son of the host family, describes it like this: "For us in Hohenwart, it is important to put people at the center. We always say: We work with people for people. We live this feeling every day - in the family, with our employees and with our guests."
Wellness with heart and horizon
Those who want to take a break will find a retreat for all the senses in the exclusive VistaSpa: with a glazed saltwater pool, light-flooded relaxation rooms, massages and treatments - and a new panoramic sauna on the roof terrace, which offers a 360° panoramic view of the South Tyrolean Alps. In the FamilySpa, on the other hand, young and old can enjoy moments together: with an indoor pool, "dress-on" saunas, infrared cabin, lounge and a 25-metre outdoor sports pool in the Mediterranean garden.
Indulgence with origin & attitude
In culinary terms, the #Hohenwart feeling can be experienced with real depth of flavor: the hotel's cuisine combines South Tyrolean tradition with fine creativity. Many ingredients come from the hotel's own cultivation or from producers in the region. Whether it's breakfast with home-made jams, the popular afternoon snack or the 5-course gourmet dinner in the evening - at the Hohenwart, you are there with all your senses. The wine cellar with over 400 labels rounds off the pleasure experience.
Hike, marvel, experience
The area surrounding the Hohenwart is a paradise for nature lovers, explorers and connoisseurs: Numerous hiking and cycling trails start directly at the hotel, Lana Golf Club is just 13 km away, and the cable cars and charming spa town of Merano are nearby.mA special highlight: the hotel's own Gsteier mountain inn at 1,400 meters. Here, high above the Naiftal valley, the Hohenwart team serves traditional South Tyrolean dishes amidst alpine meadows, sheep and summit views - a place for simple pleasures and genuine joie de vivre.
A house with soulTheHohenwart is more than just a hotel - it is a project of the heart. You can feel this in every conversation, every room, every gesture. The long-standing employees are part of the
Hohenwart family - and make that special something tangible: trust, belonging, joy. And that's what makes it so special.
experiencing the #HohenwartFeeling means: Feeling diversity. Feeling a sense of security. And recognizing the special in the simple.
