The staff is friendly and helpful. But the town of Bolzano itself is full of many charms in this corner of northern Italy. Just south of the Austrian border, Bolzano was not always part of Italy and the German-Austrian influences are apparent in the architecture. The streets are narrow, as in most Italian towns, but there's a definite alpine feel. It is a special treat to be there in December with all of the Christmas displays and the charming Christmas market.
Most residents appear to be multi-lingual.
My hotel recommendation is the Parkhotel Laurin, near the city center. All material on this website is intended primarily for children, educators, and parents. If you would like to contact James M. Deem, you may reach him here . Thanks for visiting.
