Hotel Sonnenheim is a 3-star property set on a hillside above Vipiteno, just a 10-minute walk from the historic centre and a 5-minute drive from the Monte Cavallo ski lifts.
The rooms, simple and characterised by an alpine style typical of the Val d’Isarco, all feature a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a private bathroom with hairdryer and, in most cases, a balcony with mountain or garden views. Room types range from the more compact single room to the 40-square-metre superior triple with a sitting area and desk, suitable for families or small groups.
In the morning guests find a sweet and savoury buffet breakfast, while during the day they can use the ski storage, relax in the garden furnished with a children’s play area, or organise excursions thanks to the in-house information desk. WiFi is free in the common areas and private parking is included. Vipiteno’s train station is about 250 metres away, making the property convenient even for those travelling without a car.
The rooms at Hotel Sonnenheim are furnished in an essential alpine style and share some common features: private bathroom with hairdryer, flat-screen TV with satellite channels and, in most cases, views of the mountains or the surrounding garden. The range includes six room types, from the more compact 8-square-metre single room to the 40-square-metre superior and comfort triples, designed for families or small groups needing more space.
Many rooms include a private balcony, ideal for enjoying the mountain air, while the triple rooms add a sitting area with desk. The Superior Double Room, at 25 square metres, stands out for its view which can extend as far as the town centre, while the Comfort Triple instead offers a larger sitting area. Each room type nonetheless maintains a sober layout, consistent with the property’s style.
A 16-square-metre double room with balcony, mountain views and a private bathroom with hairdryer. It is the most compact of the property’s doubles with balcony.
At 40 square metres, this is among the hotel’s largest rooms, with a separate sitting area, desk and balcony. Suitable for three travellers looking for more space than the standard doubles offer.
The same generous size as the Superior Triple, but with a bathroom fitted with a shower and a lounge area designed for relaxing after excursions. This room also has two beds.
A 16-square-metre double room without balcony, with views of the garden and the surrounding mountains: the most affordable rate among the property’s doubles.

A 25-square-metre double room, larger than the Standard and Economy, with a balcony and a view that extends to include Vipiteno’s town centre as well as the mountains and the garden.
Hotel Sonnenheim offers free private parking and free WiFi in the common areas, a convenience appreciated by guests arriving both by car and by public transport, given its proximity to Vipiteno’s train station. Outside, guests will find a garden with terrace, a sun terrace and an outdoor play area, as well as a common room with TV area for relaxing.
For mountain lovers, the property has ski storage and an excursion desk that helps organise activities such as skiing, hiking, fishing and bike rental in the surrounding area. Daily housekeeping and the availability of family rooms make the hotel suitable for both short stays and longer holidays with children.
Breakfast is served as a buffet with sweet and savoury options, while during the day an in-house café is available with fresh fruit and a selection of wines. The building is equipped with heating and a lift, with facilities for guests with disabilities.
Hotel Sonnenheim is located on a hillside on the outskirts of Vipiteno, in Val d’Isarco, in a quiet residential area surrounded by meadows and woods yet very close to the historic centre. The elevated position guarantees an open view of the surrounding mountains, while still allowing quick access to the town’s services.
Vipiteno’s town centre can be reached in about 10 minutes on foot, while the Monte Cavallo ski lifts are just 5 minutes away by car. The Sterzing-Pfitsch/Vipiteno-Val di Vizze train station is about 250 metres away, convenient for those arriving without a car, and the town of Bressanone is about 30 km away. Within a few hundred metres there are also restaurants such as Arbor and Tennis Bacher Cafè, both about 500-550 metres away.
For those seeking outdoor activities, the Skytrek adventure park is less than a kilometre from the hotel, ideal for families in summer. Mountain lovers can reach the summit of Rollspitze, at 2,800 metres of altitude, about 7 km away, or enjoy hiking, mountain biking and fishing in the surrounding area. In winter, the proximity to Monte Cavallo makes the property a practical base for those who want to ski, while in summer the area is well suited to walks and hikes along the trails of Val d’Isarco.
