Romantik Hotel & Restaurant Stafler

We returned to this restaurant listed in the Michelin Guide, a very nice location, located inside the Stafler Romantik Hotel in Mules near Vipiteno. Given the sunny day we were able to have lunch in the romantic internal garden. We tasted, from a small menu, Chanterelle ravioli with tomatoes and spring leeks from the Mules farmer, Chanterelles with polenta dumplings with herbs and vegetarian cream sauce, Duroc pork chop in a mustard and herb crust with kohlrabi from the Mules farmer and potato croissant. The traditional dishes and those of the more sophisticated recipes offered are exquisite, of quality and with the use of excellent raw materials. The service is young, friendly and professional. The prices are in line with the proposal and the quality offered, an excellent address, to be tried absolutely.

We used all the free services of the hotel: electric bicycles, sauna, swimming pool, afternoon snack. Everything well presented and with adequate spaces. The starred dinner was stellar. Excellent local wines and beautiful dishes as well as excellent, imaginative, fresh. The environment is a bit small, it should be expanded. The only flaw of the stay: the standard room has a bathroom that, although it is the humblest room, is far below the standard of a 4-star hotel. For the rest, pleasant environments, courteous and helpful staff. I would definitely return. Congratulations.

Beautiful structure, elegant, welcoming, with a pleasant garden where you can stay in the evening and in the morning if you want you can have breakfast. At the back it also has a beautiful park where you can walk or relax or if you want also have dinner. The staff is very professional, kind and very willing to pamper you. It has 2 very high level restaurants, one even has 2 Michelin stars. We had chosen half board and every evening we had the opportunity to taste very special and quality dishes, served by very professional waiters. The breakfast was abundant, varied, good. Our room was spacious and clean, I didn't really like the divided bathroom (sink and shower in one room while the toilet in another very small one is narrow and without a bidet even if there was a shower). All the rooms have nice balconies with a table and 2 chairs that overlook the garden or the park but they have no privacy because they are separated by a low partition so if you sit on the balcony you find yourself pressed against the guests of the 2 adjacent rooms and this is not nice and you end up not using the balcony, and it is a real shame because they would be very pleasant with adequate dividers to ensure greater privacy and confidentiality. Finally during our stay the temperature was high so since the hotel does not have air conditioning, we suffered the heat both in the room where we had dinner and in the room, because exposed to the sun in the afternoon and at night we could not keep the windows wide open because of the low dividers that anyone could have climbed over and entered your room, so we slept little because of the heat. Overall however our experience was positive and I would go back, maybe in a cooler period. Or it would not be bad to equip the restaurant room and the rooms with blades to move the air or air conditioning given the increasingly high temperatures even in the mountains.

Fantastic facility in South Tyrol. Equipped with every comfort and convenience and a fantastic spa. Equipped with two restaurants, one with two Michelin stars. We eat really well. It was a unique experience, we will definitely return. Very kind and always available staff.

The Turm is always welcoming, the staff is kind and very helpful. Every time we come back, the environment is elegant and welcoming, customer service is super, the rooms are very nice, clean and well-kept, good food, excellent wines, super breakfast, top location, a wellness area, outdoor swimming pool …… Truly of a high standard. We absolutely recommend it!!!

My wife and I have been staying at the Stafler several times since February 2022, 3 times in the gourmet restaurant and the rest of the time in the guest room and 10 nights in total in the hotel. I don't even want to talk about sales because we were the only ones who really spent money anyway. We also gave the hotel and restaurant a special rating once, but after all our experiences we had to delete them from spring onwards because otherwise a wrong impression could arise. We will not be coming again. Here are a few points that really bothered us and we think that we have presented them objectively several times. Unfortunately, no improvements have been made other than flippant replies and great astonishment from the owners (Angelika and Irene) and those responsible in the kitchen (Peter Girtler). 1. Rooms Except for room 301, all the beds we have stayed in squeak and the frames creak. Irene gave me the best answer to the question of whether the bed in room 304 had been made? Yes, she said, but I haven't tested the beds, that's a particularly clever answer!! If it's not you or someone you know who decides, then you can make sure everything is OK again! PS: during our last forced stay at the end of September, it was as if nobody had taken care of it. I slept in the children's room for a second time because only one person could sleep peacefully in such a creaky bed (but we paid full price). Apart from the fact that the rooms are extremely old, they should still be checked carefully. On this visit, when I was feeling so bad, the ceiling in the toilet was covered in cobwebs, and we had already mentioned this and more several times 2 years previously. Unless that can't be, nothing has happened. All the rooms are so old that it's urgently time to finally renovate them. But we think (but don't know) that the money is being invested more on the other side of the street. Apart from that, the garden has finally been spruced up. Unfortunately, there was no garden designer with his oversized stage that is supposed to be used for yoga (mainly by locals). But a hotel like that, even one of the romantic group, is really unfortunate. We would also like to mention that no one ever voluntarily helped with our luggage. As we always lived on the 3rd floor and the elevator only goes up to the 2nd floor, it is really difficult, especially because everyone knows that my wife has a bad knee and I have a bad one in my back. You get the feeling that when you open the door on arrival, everyone is busy and although everyone in the hotel notices when we arrive (always a lot of luggage), nobody really cares. That is very sad and we have never seen it like that in a hotel! 2. Food In our opinion, Peter Girtler in particular does far too little for a 2-star chef. With a few (almost no) exceptions, the menu is always the same and the food is terrible.
