GreiterHof In Merano

From the first moment, Alexander makes you feel like you've known him forever. He's friendly, sincere, and always available, a genuine person that's hard to find these days. The apartment is truly spacious and has all the comforts, but the absolute highlight is the breathtaking view. At any hour, you're enchanted by the mountains changing colors throughout the day. The town of Merano seems so far away from you, as if you were looking at it from a plane window. In the evening, it transforms into a whirlwind of moving lights and colors... we could have spent hours just gazing out the windows or from the terrace. The place is immersed in nature and catapults you into a slower, healthier life, based on true principles. In the evening, we ate in their restaurant, an unforgettable experience. Every dish is prepared with what Alexander and his family produce, everything delicious, haute Tyrolean cuisine. One word: THANK YOU

After a breathtaking and nerve-wracking drive through the vineyards east of Merano, the first thing you need is a drink to enjoy the picturesque view. You can get just that at the Greiterhof. The friendly host, Alexander, welcomes you with open arms and explains how things work on the mountain. This young man specializes in making everything himself, and that is his goal. Almost every bite that ends up on your plate is either homemade or at least from neighboring farms. A special highlight in the South Tyrolean calendar is the annual Törggelen, which, of course, is also offered here. In addition to barley soup, three kinds of meat, and doughnuts, local wine is served. Those who prefer a vegetarian meal should pre-order, as vegetarians are still just as uncommon at Törggelen as a South Tyrolean who speaks fluent Italian. What is particularly remarkable is that the host apparently runs the whole operation single-handedly. From taking your order to cooking, serving, and billing, everything is done with a smile and interspersed with short anecdotes from the life of a mountain farmer. The special hospitality is evident when you're offered a whole jug of schnapps for free. A true gesture of honor, considering the whole thing doesn't cost much.

everything was excellent, I'll be back 😊

The menu at the Greiterhof completely captivated us, prepared with a great deal of love. Absolutely authentic! We are grateful to have had the opportunity to experience it. Alex is always very accommodating and helpful. We highly recommend the Greiterhof! :-)

We spent two nights at Greiterhof in August, and Alex was our guest! A true hidden gem and simply unique! The menu was excellent, the homemade syrups divine, and the ambiance breathtaking! Thank you so much, Alex, for the wonderful getaway, and all the best!

A very pleasant stay. The food was delicious, and Alexander was very friendly and accommodating!

We spent one night at Alexander's place, taking advantage of his offer to park our campervan on his property. After the scenic drive, which takes about 20 minutes up a winding road from Merano, we were greeted by Alexander in a genuine and warm manner. He explained everything to us and then treated us to his incredibly delicious and authentic three-course meal for the rest of the evening. The cabin is furnished with love, and nothing is lacking. Dear Alexander, you are a truly special person who creates memories for guests that will last a lifetime. Thank you so much!

We received a very warm welcome from Alexander and had a wonderful evening with incredibly delicious beer and food! Highly recommended and definitely not our last visit to the Greiterhof. :)

The location is stunning – quiet, close to nature, and perfect for escaping everyday life. What really made the stay special, however, was the culinary experience: The food was absolutely delicious – regional, fresh, and prepared with love. The beer was also a delight and rounded off the evening perfectly. The hosts were warm, attentive, and immediately made us feel welcome. You can feel the passion they put into their work. We'll definitely be back!

The hike up there is worth it. The food was amazing and the view was sensational.
