Your best slowdown
experience
begins here...
As you drive up the road from Bolzano through the wide gorge, you can't imagine that the last turn towards Deutschnofen opens up onto a sun-drenched plain, hugged by one of the most beautiful mountain ranges in the Dolomites: the Latemar and the Rosengarten.
Slowdown value: Sunny plateau with panoramic views
The Pfösl Hotel is nestled right in the middle of this sunny glade. The wide meadow surrounded by woods feels like an oasis of relaxation from the moment you arrive, as the hotel is somewhat isolated, surrounded only by nature - the woods and the mountains in the background.
The hotel and garden have been designed so that at every turn you can find a corner where you can enjoy a cup of coffee, tea... and a »slowdown« moment of the day, overlooking the magnificent surroundings.
Slowdown value: The power of serenity
The location of the hotel promises no one will disturb you when you don't want them to. Pfösl sports is one of the most private locations, being surrounded by nothing but nature for miles around, although still in close enough vicinity of local life and the well-known ski resort of Obereggen and the cross-country training center of Passoo di Lavazze.

Our advice is to plan a longer holiday here so that you can appreciate the beneficial feeling of tranquillity. After three days, when your body and mind have calmed down, you will be able to experience the uniqueness of this location and the charm of the holistic offer of the Pfösl Hotel.
"Here you will find the space to enjoy holistic rejuvenation and make peace with yourself. Move around in the clear mountain air, savor our regional dishes and let us pamper you in our wellness area." HOTEL PFÖSL

Slowdown value: Sunset mood
You have to go to Pfösl to experience the unforgettable sunsets that evoke the energy of a primitive world. The term primitive in this context of course describes a feeling of being connected to nature and enjoying the most natural "slowdown effect" that is sure to enchant and inspire you.
"The tranquillity of a chalet made entirely of wood is a peace that soothes the soul. Natural materials carry the essence of nature in the air. The interior is designed to calm each day and offer new ways to enjoy the "slowdown" atmosphere."
SLOWDOWN HOTELS
Slowdown value: Slowdown in the privacy of your own forest chalet
Our summer experience was one of dwelling in a small chalet, built and furnished according to the guidelines of sustainable living.
Large windows bring nature inside and offer the experience of sitting in the heart of magical nature, soaking in its power. The magnificent views are also a source of inspiration, as they conjure the unforgettable »slowdown« moments, framed by the wooden windowsills and the majestic weather in the background. You can watch the sunset on a clear evening, enjoy the subtle daylight during the day in the house, and be amazed and envigorated each morning by the authentic life energy that only nature can awaken.

Slowdown value: Self-healing powers
The Chalet offers a complete package for a healthy »slowdown« lifestyle. In addition to natural materials and a uniquely designed house (complete with interior), you will notice details to make your stay a healthy lifestyle that you will feel. In the bathroom, along with natural cosmetics, there's also a cup of special base bath salt, which you apply to your skin every day in the evening shower (after washing with the shower gel) and then rinse off with water for a natural skin detox. The sensation after you wash the salt off your skin will be soft, glowing skin.
"Exclusive forest chalet directly on the edge of the Pfösl forest with unique panorama view, linear and high quality furnished with swiss stone pine and natural materials, combined living and sleeping area, second sleeping and generous wood veranda for a special wellness experience."

Slowdown value: Holistic rejuvenation
Pfösl has one of the largest wellness areas in our portfolio, but despite its size, the facilities here offer one of the most private wellness experiences we can think of. Their wellness center thoughtfully combines relaxation areas and 8 different types of saunas. The whole area, complete with the outdoor garden where you can find an outdoor Jacuzzi in winter and the outdoor panoramic Finnish sauna, is a unique experience and every part of it tells its own story of calmness.
Here, each space has a unique way in which to assure relaxation, so you really can create your own mini rituals, intertwining them in innovative ways to create your own moments of relaxation.
"Breathe in the beneficial herbs that are added to saunas; slip into the refreshing water of the panoramic pool; lean back on one of the handmade loungers and savour the beauty of the alpine garden."

After good sweating, relax and regenerate in the spa or upgrade the experience with a "natural spa" treatment". Specially designed massages and treatments to help you feel great and speed up your body's regeneration, so you can be more active and relax faster during your break.

Slowdown value: The power of calm
One of the important "slowdown activities" that we recommend everyone to do during their visit is to attend a yoga session. Yoga is one of the less demanding activities that quickly relieve a tired mind of all the unnecessary worries of everyday life. Pfösl has two yoga rooms that are thoughtfully furnished and designed so that the energy of the space itself calms and cheers you up upon entering.
"Even if you are not a yoga practitioner, we encourage you to include a yoga session in your next holiday. Take part in a guided session offered by the hotel, or try just sitting for a while in the yoga room, which is available during the day. It's the best way to calm down your thoughts and really feel your body." SLOWDOWN HOTELS

The breakfast menu, as the first meal of the day, is thoughtfully designed. Most of the main dishes and ingredients are of local and regional origin, with an emphasis on organic sourcing.

Freshly squeezed detox juices, hand-picked homemade teas, freshly cut vegetables, locally sourced yogurts, and cereals that you mix yourself or choose from the flakes prepared the natural way.
