The "giant" apple strudel

THE HOTEL ZUM RIESEN PAMPERS US WITH A SOUTH TYROLEAN APPLE Strudel THAT IS PERFECT FOR THE PRE-CHRISTMAS PERIOD!

The retreat is a unique blend of an old, historic house that once served as a place of pilgrimage and stylish, modern elements. The house was built by Mali, the great aunt of the innkeeper Alexandra dell'Agnolo, led, later by their mother, Mrs. Emmy. The house has therefore been in since the 14th century woman hand. It was clear to Alexandra that she wanted to continue running the inn and so she says: "Arrived! The giant is my life's work, I've always known that - somehow."

At breakfast, guests are spoiled with homemade delicacies, the ingredients for which come from the surrounding area or from the hotel's own vegetable garden. The Kulturgasthof Pizzeria Tarscher Wirt belongs to the hotel and guests can stop there during the day and in the evening. The kitchen attaches great importance to quality and atmosphere.
