Welcome to Bolzano: Meta Restaurant

META is set in Palais Campofranco, a Baroque palace of unique historical flair in the heart of Bolzano. At the centre of the action, yet in a world of its own, these exclusive suites feature a blend of Neoclassical ceilings, parquet flooring and designer interiors with premium amenities and a privileged view of the town’s cathedral, Waltherplatz square and the inner courtyard with Empress Sissi’s historic Ginkgo tree. Bask in the essence of the place. Luxuriate in the unique atmosphere of these spaces. And let yourself be spoiled by the premium cuisine and fine selection of wines, spirits and specialty coffees at the META Restaurant & Bar, without having to leave the palace. Underground car park and lift facilities ensure easy access, and all of Bolzano’s attractions – including connections to local outdoor sights – are within easy reach.

Originally a complex consisting of three humble buildings, Palais Campofranco was converted into a magnificent building during the 14th century by Heinrich Botsch von Zwingenburg. Centuries later, Archduke Heinerich had its façade remodelled as we see it today.

A residence to the Austro-Hungarian aristocracy across multiple generations, it’s currently owned by Georg Count von Kuenburg. Its inner court is home to a majestic Ginko tree, gifted by Empress Sissi to her uncle Heinerich in 1889 – a natural monument in a record-size vase.

The Neoclassical façade, recently brought to renewed splendour, reveals the palace’s prestigious heritage, further witnessed by the historic Ginkgo tree in the inner courtyard – a symbol of peace and resilience that withstood the challenges of time and two world wars.

The restaurant and bar with its panoramic sky terrace serves world-class cuisine and a superb selection of wines, distillates and coffees.

A short walk is all that separates you from the best Bolzano has to offer, including the cathedral, historical arcades lined with shops and boutiques, various museums, a theater, a concert hall and more.

Take your time to linger: wherever you wish to go next, trains, buses and lift facilities are all within comfortable reach. And so are Bolzano’s cultural and historical attractions.

Originally a Romanesque church consecrated in 1180, Bolzano Cathedral was reconstructed around 1300 in Gothic style. It features some fine late-Gothic frescoes and a Baroque high altar as well as an extensive collection of medieval relics and manuscripts.

Just outside your suite, Waltherplatz square is the town’s beating heart, entitled to famous Minnesänger Walther von der Vogelweide. A popular meeting point for locals and tourists, it’s also a year-round venue for important events such as the Christmas market and more.

The Laubengasse, a magical place beneath the venerable arches of the Middle Ages, offers an unparalleled shopping experience that harmoniously blends past and present. This magnificent promenade from the 12^th century hosts a remarkable variety of upscale boutiques and traditional shops that make every heart beat faster.

The fruit market in the city center of Bolzano is a charming highlight where visitors can find a colorful variety of fresh fruit, vegetables, and vibrant flowers. Traditional and artisanal specialties such as fragrant pastries, aromatic cheese, and the famous South Tyrolean speck invite tasting and enjoyment. A special highlight in autumn is when the tempting scent of roasted chestnuts fills the fruit market.

Built at the end of the 19^th Century along the gentle slopes of Mt. Guncina, this is more than just a promenade – it’s a historical artwork of botanical opulence.

Today, the Guncina promenade with its sub-Mediterranean vegetation bears witness to the past of town’s quarter Gries as a prestigious spa resort.

The spa town of Merano with its Terme, the Gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle and Art Nouveau buildings. Renon with its spectacular mountainscape and historical narrow-gauge railway. Colle with the world’s first officially authorised cable car.

These are just a few examples of the sights your can reach easily from your META SUITES. And with the complimentary tourist card that you will recieve at the Check- In, travelling by public transport through South Tyrol and much more is for free.
