The Kiendl awaits you in a unique location amidst the breathtaking mountains of South Tyrol, not only promising sustainability, but also putting it into practice.

We focus on:

• Regional seasonal products at breakfast and dinner
• 100% green electricity and energy-efficient technologies in all hotel rooms and public areas
• Environmentally conscious pellet heating from ETA, all heating systems can be controlled fully automatically for each floor
• All of the Kiendl's outdoor lighting switches on at dusk and is time-controlled to minimise unnecessary light pollution at night
• Special control software runs in the background to optimise electrical consumption peaks
• High-quality showers with economy function; all toilets have a manual flush stop
• The infinity panorama pool is operated with salt electrolysis and solar thermal energy. In cool weather, an automatically adjustable heat retention cover saves resources
• The air conditioning in the relaxation rooms and the indoor pool has a modern heat recycling system
• Environmentally friendly mobility - with electric car charging stations and perfect public transport connections
• High-quality, plastic-free room amenities
• Sustainably produced, vegan hotel cosmetics from Nature
• Working attitude aimed at waste reduction and waste avoidance throughout the hotel operations
• Environmentally friendly cleaning detergents
• Cooperation with local producers and craft businesses

The Merano region is ideal for anyone who wants to combine sustainability and nature. Whether hiking on the ‘Tappeinerweg’ trail, cycling along the Passer river or a trip to the gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle - you can experience South Tyrol softly, consciously and at a slower pace.

The Kiendl is the perfect starting point for enjoyable hikes, relaxing cycle tours or simply doing nothing. Perhaps with a glass of South Tyrolean wine on the terrace.

In winter, the nearby ski resorts such as Merano 2000 offer you climate-friendly winter sports with an environmentally conscious infrastructure.

Join us actively on our path to sustainability - a few steps that we can take together will make a big difference to the environment and the natural and cultural landscape of South Tyrol!

• Arrive and switch off: the journey was exhausting, many kilometres lie between your home and the Kiendl. Once you have arrived, we hope that you have a good rest from everyday life. A short walk to the nearby Naifkapelle chapel will help you to contemplate and get in the mood for South Tyrol's natural landscape.
• Avoid plastic: Plastic products are ever-present but harmful to the environment, especially when plastic waste ends up in nature. By making conscious purchasing decisions, you can help to reduce plastic consumption in South Tyrol.
• Use packaging such as glass bottles multiple times instead of disposing of them after a single use.
• Do not dispose of items brought from home on site, but return them to your recycling system: PET bottles or returnable bottles from other EU countries are not taken back in South Tyrol. Please take your bottles back home with you.
• Less Chianti, more Lagrein: consume products such as wine, water or other drinks and snacks from local sources. This enhances your holiday experience and clearly reduces your CO2 footprint in South Tyrol.
• Discover the variety of flavours in South Tyrol by visiting local inns, hikers' huts and restaurants. Sushi fits Japan like Kaiserschmarrn in a rustic mountain hut or a real Italian pizza in Merano.
• Hiking happiness: fewer cars and more steps - increases your fitness and reduces emissions.
• Experience sustainability: public transport reduces the volume of traffic and spares your nerves in traffic chaos.
• Sustainable enjoyment: we consciously focus on regional and seasonal products, true to the motto ‘more quality, not quantity’.
• Digital detox: spend a day without a smartphone. Digital detox is an efficient way to give your body space and experience your surroundings more consciously.
