Booking conditions

The Tourist Office is fully informed on the availability of beds and can be helpful to you on any of your questions. However, the booking must be made directly through the accommodation facility of your choice. It is customary to make a down payment at the moment of reservation. The down payment won't be refunded in the case of cancellation, delayed arrival or an anticipated departure by the guest. In case of a request or a reservation, there are valid the general terms and conditions of the single accommodations. For any litigation the competent court is that of Bolzano and the valid Italian law will be applied.

IMPORTANT: You can check the availability on vacant rooms on our "online availability check" section. The staff of the Tourist Office have the same information you can find on this website. Telephone information on accommodation and vacancies from Monday to Saturday, 8 am to 6.30 pm.
