Location & what to see

Hotel Sunnwies is located in Scena, a small hillside village above Merano, in the heart of South Tyrol, surrounded by vineyards and apple orchards typical of the Adige Valley. The area retains a rural, peaceful atmosphere, with restaurants and bars just steps from the hotel, such as Restaurant Cafe Monika just 50 metres away and Mair Stub’m at 150 metres.

Merano’s historic centre, with the Princes’ Castle and Kurhaus Palace, can be reached in just a few minutes by car.

In winter, access to the ski slopes of the Adige Valley is easy, while year-round the walks through Merano’s gardens and urban parks remain appealing, such as Parco Maia and the Animal Garden.
