Pension Irma is a 3-star hotel located in Oberplanitzing, a hamlet of Caldaro, in the heart of the South Tyrol Wine Road. The property, entirely allergy-free, stands out for its garden, panoramic terrace and access to a private beach area, ideal for those seeking relaxation surrounded by vineyards.
The six room types, all air-conditioned and with private bathroom, range from 17 to 22 square metres and differ in balconies or terraces with views over the mountains or the inner garden. Each room has a desk, flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a safe, and bed linen and towels provided by the property.
Guests can start the day with a buffet or continental breakfast, and spend the rest of their time hiking and cycling along the surrounding hillside trails, or reach Lake Caldaro within a few minutes. Pension Irma is designed for families and couples: it has a play area for children and has received very high ratings for its location from travelling couples.
Pension Irma offers six types of double rooms, all with an extra-large bed, air conditioning, private bathroom, flat-screen TV with satellite channels and a desk. Sizes range from 17 square metres for the entry-level rooms to 22 for the most spacious one, while the views vary between mountain and garden, allowing guests to choose their preferred atmosphere for the stay.
What mainly differentiates the rooms are the outdoor spaces: the Double Room with Terrace is the only one with a private terrace overlooking the mountains, while the other room types, including the two Superior versions and the Deluxe, offer a balcony with a view that changes between mountain and garden depending on the room chosen. All rooms are designed for couples, with a maximum capacity of two guests, and share uniform comfort standards in terms of air conditioning and technological amenities.
The only room at Pension Irma with a private terrace, this 17 sqm double room offers an open view over the surrounding mountains, ideal for those who want to enjoy the outdoors without leaving the property.
The same size as the room with terrace, this 17 sqm option instead offers a balcony overlooking the mountains, for those who prefer a more intimate space with the same view.
The Deluxe version keeps the same 17 sqm as the base rooms but changes perspective: here the balcony looks onto the property’s inner garden, offering a more intimate, green outlook.
Larger than the base rooms at 19 sqm, this Superior keeps the balcony with mountain view and adds a few extra square metres of living space.
Matching the previous room in size at 19 sqm, this Superior stands out for its balcony facing the garden instead of the mountains, for those who prefer a greener outlook.
This is the largest room in the hotel at 22 sqm, with a private balcony: the ideal choice for those who want a few extra metres during their stay.
Pension Irma has a garden with outdoor furniture, a sun terrace and access to a private beach area, spaces designed for relaxing outdoors between walks. Fans of outdoor sports can enjoy hiking and cycling directly from the property, which also offers a play area for children.
All rooms are air-conditioned and have a private bathroom with hairdryer and free toiletries, a desk, a safe and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and internet connection. The property is entirely non-smoking and allergy-free, with hypoallergenic solutions designed to ensure maximum comfort for more sensitive guests.
Guests also have access to a bar with a coffee shop, menus for special diets on request, and practical services such as a safe, heating and access with personal keys, for a stay taken care of in every detail.
Pension Irma is located in Oberplanitzing, a small hillside hamlet of Caldaro surrounded by the vineyards of the South Tyrol Wine Road, in a rural and quiet area yet well connected to the rest of the Alto Adige lowlands. The setting is typical of South Tyrolean wine villages, with farmsteads and wineries scattered across the hills surrounding the lake.
Just 250 metres away is the restaurant Siegi’s, while Speckkeller and Ansitz Strengherrnhof are 300 and 350 metres away respectively, convenient for dining without needing a car. Lake Caldaro, a destination for swimming and walks along its shores, can be reached in a few minutes at about 1.4 km. The Sudtiroler Weinmuseum, dedicated to the region’s wine history, is 2.9 km away, while Bolzano Airport is about 6 km away, convenient for those arriving by plane. Bolzano city, with the Museion and the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology dedicated to Ötzi, is about ten kilometres away.
The area is well suited to an active stay: in summer guests can swim or cycle along the shores of Lake Caldaro, or follow the hiking trails climbing towards Mendola, a natural watershed between Val d’Adige and Val di Non. In autumn the area comes alive with the grape harvest and tastings in local wineries, while in winter the slopes of nearby Mendola offer a skiing alternative a short drive away. Those who prefer the city can easily reach Bolzano for a day among museums and the historic centre.
