Sit down, relax and you'll almost forget you're in a hotel. It feels more like dinner at good friends' house. That's exactly why we call it our dining room.
We completely understand if you'd like to try every designer chair. They all have their own personality. In summer, the dining room flows effortlessly onto the garden terrace. Indoors becomes outdoors. And somehow, every table feels like the best one.
If we're honest... we'd happily join you for breakfast. It's our favourite meal of the day.
Our greatest luxury comes from South Tyrol's farmers and producers. Goat's cheese from the Vinschgau, vegetables grown with care, honest ingredients and flavours that speak for themselves. Yes, they cost a little more. They're worth every bite.
Guests tell us they dream about our apple compote. Fresh bread arrives every morning from our favourite baker, butter comes from the local dairy, jams are homemade and the speck is supplied by the village butcher.
There's always our "Special of the Day", warm porridge and plenty of little treats. And your eggs? Cooked just the way you like them, freshly prepared at your table.
Smuggled coffee. Perfectly legal now.
That's the name of Josef's coffee roastery – Martina's husband. Here, carefully selected beans are gently roasted in small batches in a traditional drum roaster. The first coffee beans made their way to South Tyrol as contraband. In the local Vinschgau dialect, smuggling was called “Kuntrawant”. And the name stuck.
These days, we enjoy it perfectly legally. Hand-filtered through a Chemex at breakfast. Or as a ristretto, whenever the mood takes us. You can taste the passion in every cup. Promise.
And if one cup isn't enough, Josef's brand-new coffee roastery and café are just across the river. He'll be delighted to welcome you.
Muchele Dinner
A feast for every sense.
Traditional half board has never really been our thing. Instead, we believe in looking forward to dinner. Five beautiful courses, guided by the seasons, Patrick's creativity and whatever you're in the mood for. The salad buffet is gone. Happily so. It's more sustainable, more relaxed and simply feels more like Muchele. Looking for something truly unforgettable? Join Patrick at the Kuchltisch, where just five guests enjoy an intimate evening in the heart of the kitchen.
Dinner is served in our colourful dining room or, on warm evenings, beneath the stars on the garden terrace.
Vegan & gluten-free
Luckily, nobody in our family has serious food allergies, so we get to enjoy everything Patrick and his team create. We also understand that not everyone can. If you let us know in advance, we'll happily prepare gluten-free dishes for you. A little local fact: Dr. Schär, Europe's leading gluten-free brand, is based right here in Postal. We're rather proud of that.
Vinschgau Valley, 1850
Our old Vinschgau lady is nearly two hundred years old, wonderfully cosy and still scented with Swiss pine. We named the Stube after our grandmother Theresia – the woman we'd probably call the founder of Muchele today, back in 1952. A passionate cook, she spent decades looking after guests from near and far. 12 lovely seats. There weren't any more in 1850 either.
