“Elegant and pleasant hotel in the beautiful cobble-stoned medieval downtown of Brixen.”
The rooms are spacious, bright, clean, with tasteful modern design (the hotel was recently completely refurbished). Luxurious bathrooms. The rooms on the back-side offer a nice sight of the mountains.
They have an excellent breakfast buffet that can also be enjoyed on a pleasant terrace overlooking the garden of the neighbouring monastery.
Many attractive restaurants and bars are within short walking distance in the Brixen city centre area; plus they have a cosy terrace bar for a night cup on the street side. Staff are efficient and knowledgeable.
The hotel is ‘mountain biker friendly’: they have a storage room, bike rental, and they organize guided tours (the owner of the hotel is a mountain-biking enthusiast, certified guide, and organizer of Caidom). Brixen is –among other things- a great start point for multiday mountain-bike tours e.g. into the Dolomites.
The hotel price includes entrance to 'Aquarena', an excellent indoor and outdoor water park just 200m walking distance from the hotel.
Access to the internet is a bit cumbersome and expensive; the parking garage is small and costs extra.
I have been coming to Goldene Krone every year since 2005, for a combination of business and leisure, and hope to do so many more times
