Goldene Rose Karthaus

This hotel is seasonal and welcoming guests from June until early November, and from late December until late March.

River deep, valley high: peak luxury in the Dolomites

Framed by soaring peaks and emerald forests, Goldene Rose Karthaus makes a dramatic first impression. Tucked away on the Italian-Austrian border in the Senales Valley, where 300+km of hiking trails criss-cross the landscape, every element of the retreat harnesses the beauty and energy of nature. And while it may be surrounded by glaciers, this boutique hotel extends the warmest of welcomes.

Goldene Rose Karthaus is in harmony with the great outdoors. Local Tyrolean materials and designer touches give a contemporary twist to the naturally-inspired look of its bedrooms and suites. Wake up to soul-stirring views of the glaciers from your private terrace. Then step outside into the crystal-clear air and relax under the pine trees in the open-air sauna, before indulging in a soothing GLACISSE spa treatment.

This is peace and quiet at its most luxurious. But there’s a whole valley of adventure beyond the door. See the Senales Glacier which became a movie set for Everest, following the footsteps of its stars who stayed at Goldene Rose Karthaus. Experience Copper Age life in Bolzano, before trekking (with a mountain guide) to visit the spot ‘Ötzi the Iceman’ was discovered. Or explore Juval Castle, an ancient keep that has guarded its mountain since Medieval times. Those with a real head for heights can attempt the 3480m climb to the top of Hohe Wilde. Come the winter months, the glaciers and mountain slopes are perfect for skiing enthusiasts.
 

Enjoy your stay!

Hotel Zur Goldenen Rose Wellness

Earth, wind and spa

Wellbeing takes centre-stage at Goldene Rose Karthaus, with a spa that embraces the healing powers of the elements. Pad in soft bathrobes along the wooden walkway through tree canopies to begin the cleansing ritual of perspiration in the Earth Sauna. Unwind in the steam of two outdoor pools, and enjoy conversation by the fire in the Gloriette glass pavilion. Or luxuriate in the peace of the private spa, a minimalist haven of South Tyrolean stone, with ice grotto and Lasa-marble steam bath. Completing the picture are exclusive MICA GLACIAL® and ACQUA GLACIAL® GLACISSE products used in relaxing treatments, created from minerals found deep within the Hochjochferner Glacier. 
 
Hotel Zur Goldenen Rose Wine

A perfect pairing

Wine connoisseurs will find plenty to whet the appetite in the wine cellar of Goldene Rose Karthaus. The cool, vaulted underground spaces of this former Carthusian monastery house an extensive collection of high-altitude mountain wines, biodynamically cultivated labels and fine vintages from local wineries. The hotel’s in-house sommelier is on-hand to point you to the perfect bottle to complement your meal – with Alto Adiges wines a particular focus.  
 
Hotel Zur Goldenen Rose Winter

Seasonal explorations

The changing landscape of the pristine Senales Valley offers unforgettable off-the-beaten-track hiking season round. Explore mountain meadows and ancient tracks against a backdrop of glaciers and the blue water of Lake Vernago. Or you could tackle the 10-hour climb to the Hohe Wilde peak, for spectacular views. In winter, the valley transforms under a thick blanket of snow and 40 km of slopes, 17 lifts and an expert school ensure every skier, from beginners to pros, are well-catered for. For families, the close by Copper Age museum is a hands-on introduction to history.

beautiful boutique hotel with friendly staff

The whole hotel and rooms are very well designed and must have been recently renovated. the food quality was excellent, I recommend to book half board as the servings of each course tend to be on the smaller side. All the staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful.

Unique hotel in a very cute little village

Overall amazing experience! Great food, great spa, great design! This hotel is probably one of the few hotels in the world that every detail is perfect! The only minus I would say is the breakfast. It's still good but it could be better.

Great get away in the Mountains

I had 5 days to spent in the Alps with vintage sports car and a camera. The Hotel has a great location to access famous pass roads and is a great refuge to come back to in the evening. Dine, drink and relax in the Spa. The service is very personal and attentive, for example I got prepared gluten free Read more[SPLIT]Read lessfood on each meal without having to remind anyone.

Food And Drinks

Relaxed refinement is the order of the day at the Goldene Rose Karthaus restaurant, where good food is considered a way of life. Laid-back dinners here celebrate the bountiful produce of South Tyrol, as beautiful dishes are created with technical flair. Because the hotel invites you to savour the landscape, expect to sample wild herbs grown in high altitude mountain meadows, wild game from the Senales Valley, handmade cheese from mountain dairies and organic ingredients cultivated in the kitchen garden. 

Zur Goldenen Rose

Served Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Our gourmet cuisine stands for the idea that even local specialties can build creative bridges between simplicity and finesse between the regional and the Mediterranean. Val Senales gives us almost everything that is served on your plate. Our chef sources dairy products directly from farmers in the surrounding area; game comes from forests of Val Senales; fragrant herbs are gathered from nearby wild meadows; organic vegetables are grown right in our very own garden.

Spa

In-keeping with the ethos of the hotel, the Goldene Rose Karthaus spa and its one-of-a-kind GLACISSE therapies harness the elements to bring you closer to nature. Using skincare products created from the iced spring water of the Hochjochferner Glacier, these thousand-year-old minerals make for powerful modern treatments. Meanwhile, the Karthauser Bad sauna is at canopy height and has a glass wall facing the forest – for the ultimate spa room with a view. You can swim in hot mountain-side pools, relax beside the fire in the glass-sided Gloriette or enjoy a just-for-you experience in the private stone-built spa.
