We stayed for 1 week in July, I liked really very much the location and the food. Unfortunately it's not a hotel for children as most of the customers are couples and just want to relax, therefore you always feel a little bit embarassed if your kids are playing around.
The owner Mrs Gufler is an unpleasant person and has rude manners. All the waiters were very polite .
a man can not ask fir more ! perfect hotel for relaxation and spa ! very good food, very nice staf !
A very nice place to stay a while.There are for sure in the Merano region hotels with a better view on the Dolomites, the atmosphere, very high service attitude of the staff and especially the wines of the Plantitscher Hof must be unrivalled! Breakfast is a present, every morning again. And during the day you can enjoy swimming (both indoor and outdoor), work (if you like under guidance) in the fitness facility, be present at one of the many events the hotel organises daily (walking trips, visit the impressive wine collection of app. 18.000 bottles in the hotels cellar, etcetera - the range of daily events is very wide that everybody will find something of his/her preference) or visit the charming town of Merano or go to larger Bolzano. And after that, the Big Final waits: dinner in the atmospheric hotel yard with oleanders, cypresses and palm trees. If travelling with young children: you'll have a good sight on playing children, while the dedicated, friendly and professional staff (mild to children!) serves you very tasty dishes and very fine accompanying wines. The level of the service offered is excellent - you can make use of it, but the staff is never 'pushy'. One critical remark: the swimming pools are during some hours closed for children. The Plantitscher Hof deserves this positive recommendation!
We discovered this hotel by chance...chose it because of the meaning of the name....We staid there 2 night in a superior room (very nice and cosi room, perfect bathroom). The hotel is owned and runned by the Family, I guess it makes all the difference!
They have a crazy nice outside pool and a wellness area (Tyrolean sauna, Scented Turkish bath, Indoor swimming pool with starry ceiling, Sunbed, Massages). All this in the middle of the vineyards!
The breakfeast is simply faboulous (maybe the best I´ve ever had for a 4 stars hotel).
Staff is very friendly and this hotel made our first nights in Italy an unforgeattable moment.
As the first spoken language in Merano is German (austrian German) all the place is full of German and the hotel too.
We will definetely go back If we stop by Merano again.
