Beautiful Hotel Elephant, for its history, unique ambiance, gracious common rooms, striking / quality appointments, exquisite antiques, inviting stube, its excellent restaurant with beautifully prepared and served gourmet food and professional...yet warm with no stuffiness service should certainly be in a category all of its own! Staying at Hotel Elephant is an experience! There is a feel of the Grand... More

This is not just a hotel, it is an experience. The staff is super, the restaurant is superb. I just have two constructive criticisms - the rooms need new mattresses (they were old, sagging and uncomfortable) and the wi-fi (which should be free) was too expensive to bother using. I will definitely book again but asking for a room with... More

I travel more than 100,000 miles a year. This is one of the best hotels I ever stayed in. Here is an old world, cultured, kind and caring still alive and well. The ambience is distinguished, with loving attention to details and impressive display of art and antiques that are seamlessly integrated in the workings of the place. The hospitality... More

My parents brought me to this gracious, historic hotel in 1971, when I was a kid. Its elegance and charm left such an impact on me that I had to return with my OWN kids...and I was not disappointed. While the town around it has grown, and the bucolic fields are littered with suburban sprawl, the hotel itself, and the... More

This hotel is simply stunning. It starts from the first moment you walk in to the second you leave. You are made to feel special by the most polite and professional staff I have ever come across in my frequent travels. The 450 plus year old is designed with a fun and dignified Elephant motif throughout and numerous art works,... More

We loved the hotel - generous and airy rooms (ours with a terrace), friendly staff, and EXCELLENT restaurant. We enjoyed our stay immensely. The little town in interesting and there is much to see and do in the area around Bressanone. More

We stayed at the Elephant for two nights during a road trip through Northern Italy in the Fall. The hotel far exceeded our expectations. It was spacious, clean, in good condition, and offered excellent customer service. We were housed in the separate building across the street. The bedroom and bathroom were well adorned with plenty of room, ample closet space... More

The Hotel Elephant sits in the middle of Bressanone which like the hotel is nice but nothing special. The public rooms in the hotel are beautiful and it is nice staying in an authentically old inn. The public rooms are filled with interesting art and antique furniture. The negative is that, like so many hotels, the bedrooms are dull and... More
