Your fairy-tale world: our 4-star hotel in Naturns

King Pipo and his big heart

He’s the star of TYROL Family Retreat: King Pipo. In the fairy tale, he gives away all his wealth – his worldly riches, furniture, and jewels – to the men and women of his royal court, so that they can live happier lives. After all, King Pipo has a big heart. It’s only after he falls head over heels in love with Princess Pipinella and marries her that his kingdom becomes wealthy again. You can read or listen to the full story at our residence near Merano.

TYROL Family Retreat

50 years of history:
TYROL Family Retreat’s journey

1954

This was the year that Anton Brunner, farmer and hotelier, opened Hotel Prokulus in Naturns, a partner hotel of TYROL Family Retreat today. He established four hotels in total – one for each of his children.

1972

The Sonnenresort – then known as Pension Sonnenhof – and the Grafenstein opened their doors.

1975

The last of the four hotels was Aparthotel Tyrol, which Anton Brunner had newly built. In 1977, it opened its doors to guests for the first time. All four businesses were located close together so they could work in partnership.

1988

The last years have seen both minor and major upgrades.

The facade was redesigned in 2016, the family junior apartments were renovated in 2018 and 2019, and the family comfort apartments followed in 2020.

The family exclusive and family superior apartments were completely renovated as recently as 2023 and 2024. And we have all kinds of plans for the future!
