Hotel Petrus

We have never experienced this level of hospitality, quality and style. As a graphic designer/stylist myself I was amazed with all the details; from styling, to all communication, to the choice and quality of food, to the staff that radiated they really feel part of the family and enjoys making your stay as comfortable as possible. A big applaus for all the hard work they put in creating the ultimate guest experience. We LOVED it.

What a wonderful week we had at the Hotel Petrus! The staff and owners are the nicest, thanks for the little attentions and gifts. We really felt even better than home. Everything is perfect at every level. The food was delicious, from the breakfast to the evening meal, and the service was amazing, wether it is at the table or at the bar. Located in a magnificent region, we recommend it 100%. Special thanks to the best waiter, Gino, and the owner Gerti for her authenticity and kindness. Family Poncin

As close to a 5* as you'll find.... What's not to love at Hotel Petrus? - very friendly family run hotel with no attention to detail spared by the lovely 3 sisters - large, bright and spacious rooms with beautiful views - great restaurant with a matching wine list and a slick cellar + well stocked bar and a lounge with ample seating areas for whatever ales you..... - very accomodating Chef who tweaked the Menu to suit my fussy diet and made fresh almond butter every morning! - every dinner was top notch, equal to a Michelin Star * - by far the best breakfast of my 4 hotels in Italy with loads of freshly made goods - super location, a short walk to Kronplatz although they have a shuttle - a longer walk into Brunico but manageable - ski back to the hotel - a fitness area with well optioned Spa + a swim out pool - yoga room for stretching - plenty of parking

Great place with nice accommodations (rooms, fitness, pool, sauna and peaceful garden), delicious food (and flexible on demand) and super friendly staff (smile, helpful and super nice). 10 perfect days to relax and enjoy South Tyrol atmosphere!

Overall we had a lovely time at Hotel Petrus. The staff were really kind and helpful, with special thanks to Paolo who was our main waiter during our stay. The hotel is extremely well located - a 2-3 minute drive by frequent minibus shuttle directly to the Kronplatz 1+2 ski lift, which is a c. 10 minute gondola lift ride up to the top of the Kronplatz ski area and gives access to 100km of marked piste. The hotel is also a 10 minute bus journey into the centre of the small and pretty city of Brunico and the hotel provides you with a free family bus ticket to use during your stay. Worth going to Brunico in December to see the Christmas market. The food is very good, particularly dinner, which is a five-course affair. We often had to pass on a few courses as it was too much to eat. The food is quite 'adult' but the hotel was very accommodating for our fussy 7 and 11 year olds and offered pasta with tomato sauce, bolognese for them. Breakfast was nice but for me as a skier I think I would prefer the option of a buffet just to be able to grab something quickly before hitting the slopes. We had a TAL family suite. About 30m2 in size with a separate room for the children. The room was quite warm and we asked a few times for the temperature to be turned down (it is controlled at reception, not in the room). A/C with controls in the room would have been preferable - we had to sleep with the window open but that meant that we had to get up early to block out the sound of cars / church bells. Very warm hotel rooms seems to be a feature of every hotel we've stayed in in the South Tyrol. We found removing the mattress toppers made the temperature while sleeping more tolerable. The kids bedroom had quite a lot of noise from the lift operating and the cleaning cupboard - fine for exhausted kids I guess? Equally the electric shutters - sometimes other guests were messing around quite late at night putting these up and down for quite a while and this made a loud noise / buzzing noise. The honesty tea / coffee is a nice idea but it was a bit of a faff to sometimes have to go to fill up the kettle and then wait for it to boil in the morning in your pyjamas - a small kettle, some tea bags and milk in the room would have been preferred by us when we woke up. The pool was at a great temperature at the start of our holiday but it became a bit cold towards the end. Finally, only two male WCs in the main part of the hotel (basement near boot room and in the spa). Sometimes both were occupied for long periods - a few more available for men to use would be good. The decoration of the hotel is first rate, some lovely furniture and the styling is very good. Really nice Christmas decorations too! In short: this is an extremely well positioned family-run hotel ideally located for the Kronplatz ski lifts. It doesn't offer as much entertainment for kids as some of the hotels we've stayed at in the area (Alpenhof in Maranza and Schwarzenstein in Lutago) -

We were here as a band of ski brothers, second time..Beautiful family hotel, warm atmosphere, clean and relaxing spa, big and cosy rooms, very kind staff..food is absolutely amazing, for a plenty of Michelin stars...all owner's family is engaged in everyday service for all guests which is so cute...every day there is a small and charming gift or surprise, to confirm familiar spirit of this hotel...price is surprisingly fear for this level of service...only remark I had about pillow (I like more fluffy, I was shamed even to ask to replace it) but it was nothing in comparision with relaxing experiance during my holiday..frank recommendation to everyone, next winter we will be coming again with our wives and kids
