Perched on a hilltop with sweeping views of the Dolomites, Castel Badia is an eleventh-century castle reimagined as a serene retreat. Here, history and contemporary comfort meet in perfect harmony, creating a place where stillness restores and the mountains inspire.

Wellbeing unfolds naturally—through pure alpine air, healing herbs, thoughtful cuisine, and landscapes that invite exploration. Time slows. The senses sharpen. New stories begin.

Rooms & Chalet

Twenty-eight unique rooms and one private Chalet offer bright, spacious interiors with views over the valley and gardens. Each space blends historic charm with natural materials and modern design, ensuring that no two stays are ever the same.

A Living Legacy

Founded in the 11th century and later transformed into the first female Benedictine monastery of historic Tyrol, Castel Badia carries a history shaped by educated, independent abbesses—most notably Verena von Stuben, whose leadership helped preserve its autonomy. Their spirit of resilience still defines the castle today.

Cuisine

Alongside the Stube, the fine-dining restaurant celebrates cooking as a true act of care and tradition. In an intimate setting centred around a chef’s table and open brazier, guests enjoy a contemporary interpretation of mountain cuisine inspired by local roots. Designed for a limited number of guests, it offers a refined and memorable culinary experience.

The castle’s culinary philosophy is shaped by its alpine surroundings and a deep respect for nature, the seasons, and long-standing traditions. Dining unfolds across a series of historic rooms, from the cosy wood-panelled Stube with its traditional tiled stove to the elegant Residenzstube with carved ceilings. These spaces once served as gathering places where people shared food and conversation, a spirit that continues today through a modern Alpine approach to Tyrolean cuisine.

Breakfast, included with every stay, highlights the region’s rich flavours with fresh local produce such as mountain butters, house-made preserves, cheeses from nearby farms, and pastries baked in-house. From lunch to dinner, seasonal vegetables, comforting broths, traditional desserts, and contemporary creations celebrate the heritage and flavours of the mountains.
