“A charming small hotel in an idyllic scenic setting, with a warm welcome and excellent food.”

This is a charming, small, family-run hotel just beneath Schlern mountain in the hamlet of Ums, a 40 minute scenic walk (and quick drive) from the nearest town, Völs am Schlern. Set in flowering meadows, it is an idyllic and quiet situation with beautiful views from the balconies, and several walks up the mountain directly from the hotel. There is a frequent bus service with a stop close to the hotel. There are 7 rooms, immaculately clean, and the food was of excellent quality, so that we ate most of our meals in the hotel. The staff were very helpful, and Patrizia and Jena especially on the walks and sight-seeing. We enjoyed the sauna and steam room in the wellness centre. The outside pool had not yet opened. We attended the Schlern music festival, visited Merano and its gardens on a rainy day, did the Puflatsch round walk after driving up to Compatsch from Seis, did a stunning round walk in the Tschamintal Valley, visited the Tschafon hut in a round walk from the guest house - walking back round the front of Schlern in the forest, we visited the Prösels Castle (and one of the concerts was held there), and walked from the swimming lakes to the Tuff Alm.
