Looking at the big picture.

Sustainability at the Cyprianerhof. Consciousness and contradiction.

Luxury and sustainability – a contra­diction? Honestly: we ask ourselves the same question. Criti­cally and often. We are part of an industry that has been flourishing at the expense of others for far too long. Travelling needs resources. A wellness hotel requires energy. Anyone who runs a sustainable hotel today must be able to recognize these contra­dictions – while stepping up to their responsibilities. And we have to keep asking ourselves: how can we give more than we take?

What does it really take to live well without constantly going overboard? How much comfort is justifiable? Where does sacrifice begin, where does real gain end? We believe that those who keep asking the uncom­fortable questions, change more than just themselves. And that is our goal at the Cyprianerhof. As a wellness hotel we want to take on this duty – with a critical eye, an open heart and the willingness to rethink.

That’s why we never stop asking – even if the answers are not always easy. We are not perfect. But we are determined and are constantly working on getting better. Questioning ourselves, what we do and what we don’t do. Because the future relies on us rethinking together. Again and again. For sustainability is not a state. It is a path – and we are on our way. Step by step, honestly, transparently and always learning.

Transport. Energy. Kitchen. Laundry.

What we serve, how we do laundry, where we source our electricity from – we scrutinise every area. And change what is feasible.

Sustainable also means honest.

We can’t do everything right. But we can do many things better. By observing, listening and acting.

Our commitment is deeply rooted

The Cyprianerhof is built to be energy-efficient and actively reduces the consumption of resources. Hydropower, photovoltaics, wood chip boilers with a heat recovery system – we are able to largely cover our energy demand self-sufficiently. We scrutinise processes and optimise wherever it makes sense. Always taking the long view.

A strong team makes all the difference. Those who work at the Cyprianerhof don’t just have a job, they have real prospects. And a stable, motivated team surrounding them, that inspires to go above and beyond. Leading to a happy team and happy guests. A testimony to the success of this approach: the award for excellent workplaces in tourism.

We also cherish our close ties with the community in the valley. And we want to strengthen these ties even more, by opening our doors further: open events, open days and services such as our hair salon are not only intended for our guests but also for locals. Because real sustainability starts where people meet – and get things moving together.

We work with local producers, craftsmen and partners who share our values. Because we know that acting sustainably means thinking locally. We support processes that strengthen the regional economy and ensure highest quality. Because real responsibility goes far beyond our own premises.

Feel

peace

Everything flows. The clear water from the Plafötsch spring and your energy.

Float, breathe. Arrive in the moment and feel the soft touch of water on your skin.

Throwing away less is worth more.

Food waste is not an option: what’s left over counts. That’s why we plan wisely, get creative and throw away as little as possible.

Proximity makes the difference.

What’s on our plates doesn’t come from far away. We cook what grows here – and now. And you will taste the difference.

Built from what’s surrounding us.

The Cyprianerhof is located in the heart of the Schlern-Rosengarten Nature Park. Naturally, our surroundings also inspired our architecture: Swiss pine and oak from local sources and silver quartzite, a typical type of stone in South Tyrol take centre stage in our design. Local materials with history and character, authentic and durable. The South Tyrolean architect Hugo Demetz has integrated them harmoniously into the concept – in the facade, the rooms and shared spaces.

EarthCheck Silver Certified

Less consumption, more awareness. That’s what the EarthCheck Certification stands for. We save water, reduce waste and focus on regionality.

It is on us.

Acting responsibly is a process. And we are always keeping up so that you can enjoy yourself without making sacrifices.

Stay mobile, even without your (own) car.

Your next bike tour, hike or day trip starts with the MobilCard South Tyrol, granting you free access to public transportation right on our doorstep. Prefer to stay independent? Rent an electric car at an attractive price. Just send us a message and we will take care of the rest.

100 % green energy.

The Cyprianerhof is supplied entirely with green energy. We generate around 30 % ourselves – with photovoltaics.

Electricity from hydropower.

The remaining electricity comes from the two hydroelectric power stations in val di Tires/Tiersertal – sustainable and regional.

Sustainable water heating.

The Cyprianerhof is fuelled by a CO₂-neutral wood chip heating system. The wood is sourced from the region and provides environmentally friendly hot water in the house. We thereby use local resources sensibly – and protect what sustains us: nature.
