HOLZNER
FAMILY
In 1908, a young hotel manager from Meran, Hans Holzner, opened the Hotel Holzner in Oberbozen. At the time, nobody thought about the possibility of this house continuing its tradition of hospitality for more than 100 years, providing a peaceful retreat full of relaxation and pleasant experiences for both young and old. Not even Hans Holzner himself dared to dream seeing his family governing the hotel for four generations!
Our
philosophy
Family-run hotel
steeped in history
The Holzner has been family-owned for 4 generations now, for more than 100 years. Our present and our future are defined by the turbulent past of our region South Tyrol. We are aware of our entrepreneurial as well as human responsibilities. Hence, we wish to participate in the creation of our local social life through sustainable and open-minded actions. In doing so, we always keep our eyes on the generations yet to come.Hospitality that
is high-brow
All our strategic decisions and investments reflect the sustainable actions that drive them. Thus, the architectural development of our house should emphasize the preservation of the hotel’s historic character, while increasing holiday comfort and of course optimizing working processes. The manageable and convenient size today results in being one of our great strengths as it enables that personalized service we highly value in a good vacation. Whether service or hotel amenities, we strive for only the best quality always!Hotel with
a heart
We aim at offering our employees a comfortable and secure workplace as well as a place that feels like a home. Our guests we wish to provide with casual, relaxed and shared enjoyment, thus conveying joy of being and a sense of comfort and belonging. Today our offers mainly target families with a sense for pleasure and gourmet. All generations should be able to find the vacation they yearn for at The Holzner.Living
history
An establishment with a history of its own understands how important history can be. Taking a glimpse back into the past of Parkhotel Holzner is like looking back at the history of the country it is based in, at the history of every single individual who has come and gone here, a history closely related to that of the Holzner family itself.1908 „Hotel Oberbozen“ opening
