Gasthaus Oberkirn is a bed and breakfast in Scena, a hillside hamlet above Merano, offering rooms with views over the city and the surrounding mountains alongside a panoramic terrace, an on-site restaurant and a bar.
The property is designed for those seeking a quiet stay in close contact with nature: WiFi is free throughout the property and private parking is included at no extra cost. Continental breakfast is served every morning, while a dedicated play area is available for families with children.
The five room types, all with private bathroom and flat-screen TV, range from more compact options for two people to family rooms designed for larger groups. The area is ideal for those who love cycling or hiking trails starting from the Texelgruppe Nature Park, just minutes from the property. Merano, with its gardens and museums, can be reached within a few kilometres, making Gasthaus Oberkirn a convenient base both for relaxation and for exploring South Tyrol.
The five rooms at Gasthaus Oberkirn share some basic features: private bathroom with shower, flat-screen TV, desk and views over the city or the surrounding mountains, plus a small sitting area designed to make the stay more comfortable even during the day.
The main differences lie in size and capacity: from the 17 square metres of the Double Room with Balcony, designed for two people, to the 28 square metres of the Family Room, which with a single bed, sofa bed and large double bed can accommodate up to four guests. The other two double rooms, of 19 and 21 square metres, combine the double bed with an additional sofa bed, offering an intermediate solution for families or groups of three.

A 19 sqm room that combines the double bed with an additional sofa bed, accommodating up to three people. Private bathroom and sitting area with TV complete the accommodation.

Gasthaus Oberkirn is located in the hamlet of Oberkirn, on the hills of Scena, above Merano, in a rural setting of vineyards and orchards with views over the valley and the surrounding Alps. It is a convenient starting point for those seeking mountain quiet without straying too far from city amenities.

In the immediate vicinity, within 2 km, are restaurants such as Berggasthaus Videgg and Assenhütte, excellent for a traditional South Tyrolean dinner. Merano, with its historic centre streets, can be reached within a few minutes by car: here you’ll find the Gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle, the Princes’ Castle and the Touriseum museum, all about 8 km from the property.
The area is particularly suited to those who love hiking and mountain biking: the Texelgruppe Nature Park is just 2.1 km away, with trails climbing towards the summit of the Hirzer, which rises above 2,780 metres. In summer, walks among the farmsteads and vineyards are the main activity, while in winter the proximity to the alpine valleys allows for snow excursions and visits to Merano’s Christmas markets. For those who prefer a more relaxed city stroll, the Sissi Gardens and Parco Maia offer quieter walks just minutes from the historic centre.
