Looking for a perfect workation/co-living experience? This is your place! Located at the mountains franz&mathilde give the great opportunity of living at the mountains but also getting to know great, kind and loving people. As our first experience in a coliving we couldn’t have asked for more. Great working stations, fast internet, great view, and just the nicest place for your “Feierabend”. We will come back!
I had the extraordinary pleasure of staying at Franz&Mathilde for just over ten weeks. It was my first remote working/co-living experience and I couldn't have asked for a better stay. The hosts (Philipp and Sarah) are wonderful people and they have created a comfortable, stylish, and relaxing space that immediately felt like home. There is a perfect balance of suggested activities and the opportunity to take things at your own pace, and my fellow guests were all very friendly like-minded individuals, all of which created a very harmonious and peaceful atmosphere. The en-suite room I stayed in was fantastic - I've never slept better - and the daily breakfast (included in the price) was healthy and hearty with a speciality coffee thrown in too (everything was either home-made or sourced locally and it was all delicious). The perfect start to the day. The working facilities were excellent, with a co-working space that included large monitors and comfy chairs, and the view over the valley was unmatched, for that extra little bit of inspiration. I have wonderful memories of my stay and I'll definitely be back - I can't wait to see everyone again!
This is truly a special place! Incredible setting, lovely hosts and beautiful rooms. The location is also great with a lovely village on the doorstep, hikes in the area and the Dolomites less than an hour away. The breakfast is also totally delicious!! Would absolutely recommend if you are looking for a base to explore the Dolomites region.
Warning: Once you stay at Franz&Mathilde you may experience extreme bouts of sadness and withdrawal symptoms upon leaving. Philipp and Sarah have created such a warm, welcome, and friendly atmosphere at (F&M) and the community spirit was just unbelievable. Between planned weekly events like volleyball Monday's and shared dinner Sunday's, and all the impromptu trips and events you'll inevitably make with the other guests, you'll never be bored. But we come here to work, right?... Well, good news there too - the wifi speeds are extremely fast and reliable. And the dedicated working area includes plenty of desks and external monitors available... Oh, and an unbeatable view and some specialty coffee thanks to the Coffee-Connoisseur Philipp! Each room also has a desk with a proper work chair if you need some solo-work time, and the wifi works wonderfully all the way to the upper reaches of the house. While it does take some patience with the public bus schedule to arrive if you don't have a car, once you arrive you almost immediately feel right at home. (And there most likely will be enough guests with cars that once you arrive, you won't even need one yourself.) For shopping, there's a grocery store in Tesimo that's just a short 8 minute walk away that has most essentials (including lots of fresh veggies). For more serious shopping, you'll likely need to go to Lana which has all the big supermarkets. To get there you can hitch a ride with a fellow guest or take one of the many local busses. The free breakfast with tons of vegan options is a wonderful way to bring everyone together for breakfast (not forced) before the work day begins, and from there, the day is yours to decide. Do you go hiking, organize a board game night, take a day trip to Lana/Merano/Bolzano, do some patio yoga, relax in the hammock, or work on your next season of "The Coliving" mockumentary? All in all, I can't recommend Franz&Mathilde more. Can't wait for my next visit!
Beautifully designed co-live with an amazing community. The hosts Phillip and Sofia are so friendly and helpful, you can tell the community here resonates with that. It truly felt like we were part of the family since day one, daily group activities and exploring the beautiful mountains that we can see from our work stations. My only regret is that I didnt stay longer!
I had the pleasure of staying the second time at Franz & Mathilde this June. It has been again a great experience. Starting with the heart-warming welcome and care by the hosts Sarah & Philipp The nature is great for outdoor lovers, especially for hikers and cyclists, if you like steep climbs. The international guests were interesting people and good fun.
It was my first co-living place and I was blown away! The views are beautiful - I sat in the balcony having breakfast every day. This is one the very few co-living spaces that provides breakfast. And it sets you up for the day. It's one less thing to worry about. Phillip the co-owner sets up an amazing breakfast setup. It includes a lot of options that are great for vegetarians as well. You can feel the warmth in the home - every corner is mindfully thought out and decorated with love. My room smelled like the pine trees! PROS: - Very Friendly Hosts - A small cozy group of people - Beautiful View - Extensive Breakfast Included with amazing coffee - Separate Co-working space for focusing - Beautiful Rooms with bathrooms - Nearby Towns are accessible by public buses - Lots of nice Hikes nearby - Shared Kitchen with some basic groceries available for a very small cost - Everything was very organized CONS: - It may take a little long to get here by public transport I really felt as this was a Home away from Home and I will go back. Thank you Phillip and Sarah for your hospitality and care :)
