Perched at 1,100 meters between the Dolomites and the larch meadows of the Salto plateau, Saltus is an eco-luxury retreat that seems to rise organically from the forest. Just eight kilometers above Bolzano (reached via a scenic cable-car ride), this hidden sanctuary bridges city and stillness, connecting the lively world below with the slow, grounding rhythm of nature.
Built entirely from local materials such as larch wood, porphyry stone, clay, and lime, the hotel mirrors the tones of its surroundings - grey, sand, honey, and moss - changing subtly with the light. Inside, simplicity meets elegance through solid wood, linen, and natural fabrics. Every detail breathes calm, craftsmanship, and respect for the environment. Floor-to-ceiling windows open towards the woods and the mountains, merging indoors and outdoors into one continuous flow.
The rooms and suites (including family suites for up to six guests) are havens of peace. Soft hues, wooden floors, and Dolomite views create an immediate sense of stillness.
The restaurant follows the same rhythm of simplicity and seasonality. Working with local farmers and a zero-waste philosophy, the kitchen celebrates South Tyrolean flavors through mostly plant-based dishes. Mornings begin with a generous alpine breakfast; evenings bring creative, regional menus. During the day, the Saltino Bistro offers light lunches, herbal teas, fresh juices, and local wines in an atmosphere blending alpine calm and Italian flair.
In the Forest Spa, relaxation becomes something deeper, a reconnection with nature. Saunas, a meditation path, and a yoga space are literally surrounded by trees. Two Sky Pools filled with pure mountain spring water appear to float above the valley, offering spellbinding views towards the Dolomites. The Saltus Relaxation Program, included with every stay, invites guests to join yoga, meditation, forest bathing, and Pilates - simple yet profound rituals that help carry the mountain peace back home.
