Setting new standards for hospitality with Das Dorner
Successful transformation of a family business
With the takeover of the hotel by the next generation and its extensive renovation came the opportunity to strategically realign the Das Dorner brand. The goal was to evolve the character of the house, keep the brand relevant in the long term and create a brand experience that consistently connects the modern architecture, the values of the host family and the holiday experience.
Since the generational change we have been accompanying the Götsch family as lead agency in the continuous development of the brand. Together, Das Dorner was positioned as a place to feel good, enjoy and unwind — embedded in the orchards of South Tyrol with a clear focus on hospitality, design and slowing down.

The brand identity was carefully aligned with the architecture and atmosphere of the house. Colours, shapes and materials pick up the hotel experience and create a consistent brand world with high recognition value.
The heart of the implementation was the completely new website and a holistic brand experience — from brochures and guest information to door hangers, slippers and merchandise, down to countless details accompanying the guests’ stay.
