“Charming Hotel in charming Town”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 January 2006
6
people found this review helpful

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 and new fixtures.

The hotel's location is also great, you can quickly walk downtown for shopping or restaurants, or can drive out of town to tour the beautiful mountain passes nearby.

The hotel restaurant is also a must try. Food and service was excellent, but a reservation is necessary, as it fills up fast.

We would highly recommend the hotel to anyone looking for a high-class hotel in the Bressanone area. No complaints whatsoever.

“Lovely public rooms, good restaurant, bedrooms nothing special”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 September 2005
13
people found this review helpful

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 not interesting. They couldn't have been less imaginative in putting together their bedrooms.

The restaurant was surprisingly good serving Tyrolean cuisine. The gardens were nice but I would say that the swimming pool was like the bedrooms--not memorable and not a feature.

If you are coming from far away I would stay in Ortisei, not Bressanone or I would stay in a hotel like the Rosa Alpina instead of the Hotel Elephant. Again, it's not that the hotel is a charmless, unenjoyable place--it just isn't special.
