Dolomit 36 m² for 2 - 4 person/s | 36 m² 138,00 € for occupation with 2 persons/night
Dolomit apartment for two to four people Double room (two persons), kitchen-living room with dining table and extendable sofa bed (two persons), bathroom. Wooden floor, WLAN, safe, LCD TV, tea station, kitchen equipment, fridge, bathroom with shower, WC, bidet, hairdryer, towels, and bath products. In February 2014, a rockslide occurred in Tramin in the South Tyrolean lowlands. The Tramin dolomite came down from the mountain into the valley. The hard impact split it into two pieces, but that doesn't matter to a stone. The blocks were cut and gradually made available for interior design and interior decoration. It won't be there forever: That's what makes this special dolomite so beautiful and also valuable.

Wooden floor, WLAN, safe, LCD TV, tea station, kitchen equipment, fridge, dishwasher, bathroom with shower, WC, bidet, hairdryer, towels, and toiletries. Anyone searching for gold in the South Tyrolean riverbeds will often find gneiss. It shimmers and glitters a wonderful silver colour. The name is old German and means something like "spark". The gneiss is usually hidden deep in the earth and only comes to the surface under certain conditions – just like your well-earned holiday feelings. That makes these two things real treasures.

Wooden floor, WLAN, safe, LCD TV, tea station, kitchen equipment, fridge, bathroom with shower, WC, bidet, hairdryer, towels, and toiletries. Porphyry tells a fascinating story. It originates from the caldera of a volcano that has been extinct for millions of years. Typical of lava rock, the Bolzano porphyry is reddish in colour. Our rock was discovered by chance on a farm. The atypical white inclusions make it a very special piece of stone with a strong character. Its hardness, substance, and beauty make it a building material for eternity.
