Da Peppi In Santa cristina valgardena

08/05/2026: Stayed here for the first leg of our honeymoon and had a lovely time. It is a beautiful drive through the mountains to reach the hotel and lovely views on clear days. Having a private sauna in your room is always a nice luxury touch and the room itself felt well thought out and the design was beautifully in keeping with the style of the building. The entrance is definitely hard to find as it’s not a big double door like a modern hotel would be but a smaller door on the side of the building which took us a few minutes to find. There were some lovely staff behind the bar that helped us check in and carry our bags to the rooms as there are no elevators. The restaurant food was lovely and beautifully presented although not a huge selection if you don’t eat meat or dairy however the staff made sure to ask for our dietary preferences on arrival and remembered at breakfast and brought things matching our requirements. We came to visit Lago di Braise and the three peaks which are about a 90 minute drive from here which was fine for us as the drive is very picturesque. There are not many other restaurant options nearby so you would likely have to drive down the mountains to find other options but we came during off season which may have impacted what was open. There is a small Spar shop where you can get a few groceries if needed 2 minutes walk from the hotel. A lovely experience overall - Ended with a lovely gift from the manager Elisabeth to send us on our way. Thank you Steinbock staff :)

02/05/2026: The place is very beautiful and elegant, but the lady, who I think is the owner, to whom I paid the drinks was very cold and had no empathy, not even looking me in the face, probably because we didn't consume who knows what!
