Hotel Post Gries is a 3-star hotel in the Gries district of Bolzano, in Trentino-South Tyrol, less than 10 minutes’ walk from the city centre.
The property caters to both business travellers and tourists visiting Bolzano, thanks to its proximity to the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology, home to the mummy of Ötzi, and an on-site restaurant serving traditional South Tyrolean dishes. The rooms, all air-conditioned and with private bathroom, range from Single to Family, including a Superior Double and an apartment with a separate kitchen: each one comes with a flat-screen TV and a magnifying mirror in the bathroom.
Amenities include free bicycle rental, a tour desk for arranging excursions in the surrounding area, paid on-site parking and free WiFi throughout the property. Pets are allowed on request, with a possible surcharge. The location, particularly popular with couples, allows guests to walk to bars, restaurants and the main landmarks of Bolzano’s historic centre.

Hotel Post Gries is located in the Gries district, a quiet residential area of Bolzano known for the ancient Muri-Gries Benedictine Monastery, just 50 metres from the property. The district retains a more intimate atmosphere compared to the historic centre, while still being just steps away from bars, bakeries and small restaurants frequented mainly by locals.
The hotel is less than 10 minutes’ walk from the centre of Bolzano, while the railway station is about 1.9 km away and Bolzano Airport is 3.9 km away, convenient for those arriving by plane from major Italian cities. In the immediate surroundings are Caff@ Gruber and the restaurant Geier, both about 50 metres away, ideal for breakfast or a casual dinner without going far from the property.
Guests staying here can easily reach the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology, home to the mummy of Ötzi, about 1.2 km away, and Museion, the city’s contemporary art museum, just over 1 km away. For mountain lovers, the Messner Mountain Museum Firmian, set in Sigmundskron Castle, is about 3.3 km away and can be reached in a few minutes by car or public transport. In summer, the Gries district is a good starting point for walks along the Talvera river, while in winter the proximity to the Dolomites makes Bolzano a convenient base for reaching the area’s ski slopes in a day trip.
