Unusual places to stay
Luxury suite in the old granary
If you are looking for an extraordinary place to stay in the Eisack Valley, the Chalet Gratznhäusl****s is a real gem. The former 14th-century farmhouse, just a five-minute walk from the Gassenhof adventure park, has been lovingly renovated by brothers and hosts Stefan and Manni, saving it from decay.
Today, the Gratznhäusl Chalet invites you to breathe in history while enjoying modern comforts—an extraordinary overnight stay that is second to none. Upstairs, three rooms made of natural wood, stone, and glass await you, while another unfolds over three floors in the old granary. Here, the wood-burning stove crackles, providing cozy warmth in three of the rooms, while an infrared cabin gently relaxes you. An atmosphere that is perfect for quiet, romantic hours.
Goethe once said that you have only truly been somewhere if you have been there on foot. I say that you have only truly been somewhere if you have tasted the local delicacies.

The hosts' culinary passion unfolds on the ground floor and in the cellar. This is where bacon, wine, and fine spirits are aged, including Manni's award-winning Argintum gin. On special occasions, Stefan cooks in the historic dining room—a seven-course menu made from regional and seasonal products. As you enjoy your meal, the history of the house resonates: how many people have eaten and drunk here over the centuries? Sparingly, festively, in silence or full of cheer?
But brothers Stefan and Manni take enjoyment even further: with the Genusshaus Mount Becher, they have created a place where cheese, coffee, beer, and spirits are produced – all handmade, all from the treasures of the Ridnaun Valley. This is where their connection to the region is evident: honest, high-quality, and authentic. The Gratznhäusl****s is therefore not only a place for extraordinary overnight stays, but also a place where cuisine and origin are inextricably intertwined.
