The mountainous region of South Tyrol is famous for the beauty of its snowy Alpine slopes. Despite the harsh climate, locals have come to love this region. If you visit the homestead located high on the hillside and named after the Ibex, you will definitely join them. Hotel Ansitz Steinbock in the village of Villanders will delight with the amazing view of the surroundings, perfect rooms and exceptional cuisine and, above all, with the atmosphere created by the hospitality of owner Elisabeth Rabensteiner.
Rooms to Enchant
The complex of buildings of Gourmet Hotel Ansitz Steinbock dates back to the 15th century. It has the appearance of a small castle that immediately attracts the attention, surrounding one with the fascinating beauty of the Middle Ages combined with modern times. The reconstruction of the building in 2022 transformed the rooms into 12 exclusive, individually furnished suites. High-quality solid wooden furniture and other elegant designer fittings and fixtures are complemented by the saunas and infrared saunas in the rooms. Frette bathrobes, in which to snuggle up after a bath, and beautiful lamps from the Italian brand of Catellani & Smith complete the idyllic atmosphere.
Gourmet Experiences for All
Apart from the charming interiors, guests can admire another advantage of the hotel, and that is the culinary mastery of the team of Chef Tomek Kinder. Be sure to treat yourself to a 5-course Alpine dinner in the luxurious Defregger Stube restaurant. Also experience the unique atmosphere of the wine cellar situated deep in the rock, with an impressive selection of wines. Breakfasts in the typical Tyrolean Stube dining room are also incredible, made from delicious regional products, including home-made jams, cheeses and smoked meats.
Snow White Region
Villanders is the ideal location for memorable winter experiences. The vast meadows, snowy slopes and sunny Villanderer Alm mountain pasture invite visitors to an unforgettable adventure on cross-country skis or snowshoes. Downhill skiing can also be enjoyed in the nearby winter sports paradise, in the Alpe di Siusi ski area, or in the Val Gardena area, half an hour’s drive from the hotel.
Generous Capricorn
Gourmet Hotel Ansitz Steinbock always has something extra for its guests. How about spending Christmas here, with a trip to the Christmas markets in the legendary Klausen? The relaxing "Good Life for Two" package or the uplifting offers called "Festive Atmosphere" or "Gourmet Heaven" are also worth trying.
