Hotel Kirchenwirt

We stayed here as part of an organized hiking group, what a great family run hotel! They are friendly and helpful, speak English well, and include pickups and dropoffs from the Toblach/ Dobbiaco station for their guests with advance notice. The hotel is classic Tyrol style with flowers in abundance, right beside the picturesque church. We had a large room in the newer section which was sunny , had a transformable cot for a third person, and a modern large bath as well as a small balcony. We welcomed the steam room and dry sauna as well as the indoor pool after hiking all day. It is also lovely to have daily room service and they readily exchanged towels that we left on the floor. Everything is very clean and there are thoughtful touches like a tea service and kettle outside the steam room, a ready basket of local apples, and to our delight a friendly young Bernese mountain dog whose residence was just outside the picture walls of our dining area and provided much entertainment. The hotel provides an abundant buffet breakfast with wonderful fresh and dried fruits and granola , baked goods, hot food, and specialty coffee service. For our package we had half board which included a full service multi course dinner every night; we made our selections on a menu before we left in the morning. I enjoyed this regional food, almost all of it was new to me. It is more Austrian than Italian as that is the heritage of the Tyrol region. We really enjoyed having this as a base hotel for our hiking tours and I would enjoy coming back if I had a chance to. It is very authentic to the area, and the family and staff are so friendly.
