Years ago, Caroline Feiffer of Via Oltra shared an image of a yoga studio. It was set within vaulted historic walls, pared back, and unusually refined. The kind of space that would make any sedentary individual an instant convert. It belonged to Parkhotel Mondschein, located just outside of Bolzano, Italy.
Owned by brothers Klaus and Moritz Dissertori, whose wider portfolio includes 1477 Reichhalter in nearby Lana. Across their projects, the emphasis is consistent: adaptive reuse, architectural continuity, and interiors that favor material moderation over theme.
At Parkhotel Mondschein, the redesign of the listed 1330 building was developed with Merano-based Studio Biquadra, led by interior architect Chrsitina Biasi von Berg. Midcentury references balance the building’s older bones—preserving original parquet floors, high ceilings, and stucco while introducing refined finishes, dark woods, and a subtle thread of utility. Join us for a tour.

Above: The listed building dating back to 1330 was the city first guesthouse. Additions in the late 19th century introduced Belle Époque elements—stucco detailing, generous proportions—that remain central to the present structure. 
Above: The latest renovation under the Dissertori brothers in 2022 maintained the mandate of working within the existing structure, Belle Époque and all, rather than overwriting history. 
Above: Biquadra utilized a palette in warm neutrals surrounding various shades of dark wood and blush velvet. 
Above: Midcentury references appear in the bar by way of warm lighting and a restrained color palette rather than period replication. 
Above: The Luna Bar and Luna Restaurant sit adjacent to the hotel, conceived as social rooms rather than destination dining spaces. 
Above: The Luna Restaurant is fitted with custom lighting from Biquadra who designed the fabric Luna Wall Lamp for the space.
