Our conviction

For our common future

Economy

By using more reusable materials, we achieve greater economic efficiency.

Ecology

We value a considerate approach to nature and its resources. We make our contribution with less waste and lower CO2 emissions.

Well-being

We try to fulfil subjective values that represent a luxury and thus contribute to a healthy life.

Social responsibility

By treating our employees and suppliers with respect, we strengthen our working environment and the economy in the valley.

Electricity & heat

Green electricity and heat from sustainable source

Our hotel is only supplied with clean energy, with green South Tyrolean electricity from 100% renewable energy.

Electricity optimisation - We work with the ideal electricity-saving concept. All electro-thermal appliances, such as laundry machines, dishwashers and all kitchen appliances are connected to this optimisation. This control strategy enables us to reduce electricity peaks by around 20%.

Heat from wood - Our heat is environmentally friendly and comes 100% from the Ulten forests. The heat comes from the nearby heating plant and is channelled to our hotel via district heating. Water is used as the transfer medium.

Drinking water

The Ultental spring water

The Ultental Valley has excellent drinking water. Numerous springs bring the raw water to us via a drinking water pipeline. It flows from all taps and is available free of charge in the hotel and throughout the valley.

We charge € 2 for the service of 0.75 litres of water.
Of this amount, we donate € 1 to the local aid organisation Südtirol hilft/South Tyrol helps for charitable purposes.
In the summer season 2023 we donated €1,856.

The Unterpichl cuisine

Products from local producers

Our products come from local farmers, as well as from regional sources, exclusively from South Tyrolean suppliers. Fruit and vegetables are of high and selected quality and, where possible, of regional origin. Fresh herbs, teas, herbal salt and all beauty products come from the nearby Wegleit herb realm. All types of bread for our rich breakfast are baked every day directly in the Ultental Valley at Bio-Ultnerbrot.

For a sustainable future

Level 1

By bearing a Level 1 Sustainability Seal, we have taken the first steps towards a sustainable transformation. We have therefore rethought our strategy and planned corrective measures. We calculate our energy, water and CO2 consumption to lessen our impact
on the environment. On these premises, we already use renewable energy to a great extent. We avoid cleaning agents containing harmful substances and cut down on the waste we produce. We also encourage our guests to act responsibly.
