Wanderers beneath pergolas will be delighted when, in the middle of the historic village centre of Egna in the Bassa Atesina district, the Hotel Andreas Hofer appears. No room looks like the other in those four neat, landmarked arbour houses with quaint edges and individually styled rims. The mouldings and murals, the historic furniture manufactured just around the corner in the area and the old, painted wooden doors all tell their own special story of life in times past.
