Room types

The rooms at ADLER Historic Guesthouse range from the 21 sqm Single Room to several double room types between 25 and 30 sqm. All accommodations are air-conditioned and feature a private bathroom with a walk-in shower, hairdryer and toiletries, as well as a minibar, coffee machine and flat-screen TV: details designed for a comfortable stay in every category.

What differentiates the room types is mainly the view: some rooms overlook the inner courtyard, others the Isarco river or the surrounding mountains, while the versions with a balcony, patio or terrace offer outdoor moments with panoramic views of the old town and the surrounding hills. The larger options, such as the Superior with panoramic view or the one with a terrace, are suited to those who want more space and a direct glimpse of the Dolomite landscape.

Location & what to see

ADLER Historic Guesthouse is located on Adlerbrückengasse, in the heart of the historic centre of Bressanone, the second oldest town in South Tyrol, situated at the confluence of the Isarco and Rienza rivers. The neighbourhood is one of arcaded lanes, colourful houses and inner courtyards typical of this episcopal city, with shops, cafés and restaurants lining the pedestrian streets just steps from the property.

Within a few hundred metres you’ll find the Pharmacy Museum, just 50 metres away, and the Bishop’s Hofburg, about 250 metres away, one of the town’s main historic monuments.

Bressanone is a landmark for exploring the Dolomites in every season: in winter, the Plose ski area just outside town offers ski slopes and cross-country trails, while in summer the same slopes turn into a network of trails for hiking and mountain biking. Festplatz Tschötscher Hoade, about 1.5 km away, and other green areas nearby are ideal for shorter walks along the river. Guests staying here can also dedicate a day to the thermal baths and villages of the Isarco Valley, or combine a visit to the historic centre with a food and wine tour among local cellars and markets.
