Jannik Sinner, fresh off his historic Wimbledon win where he defeated Carlos Alcaraz in four sets, hails from the picturesque South Tyrol region in the Dolomites. His parents now operate a charming bed-and-breakfast called Haus Sinner, located in Sexten, a scenic village known for its mountain farms, alpine meadows, and ski slopes.
After his Wimbledon triumph, the 23-year-old Italian didn’t linger in London for long. He boarded a private jet, made a brief stop in Italy to drop off his parents at their hotel, and continued on to Nice, France — reportedly without even stepping off the aircraft.
While Sinner relaxes in Monte Carlo, his parents, Johann and Siglinde, have returned to managing Haus Sinner, a cozy retreat that’s ideal for guests looking to enjoy both summer hikes and winter skiing. The hotel offers six traditional alpine-style apartments, with prices estimated between £300 to £500 per night, depending on accommodation size and season. Pricing details are available on request from the property.
Johann previously worked as a chef, while Siglinde was a waitress — both in the local ski resort industry. Today, their guesthouse welcomes tourists drawn to the beautiful Hochpustertal Valley, a hotspot for skiing, snowboarding, and cross-country trails during the winter months.
Jannik himself was once an avid skier before fully committing to tennis. Reflecting on his upbringing after his Australian Open win earlier this year, he praised his parents for giving him the freedom to choose his path:
“They always let me decide what I wanted to do… I wish every kid could have that kind of support.”
While fans may dream of spotting the world No. 1 at the family hotel, sightings are rare due to his demanding schedule. Still, the property’s website mentions that Sinner does occasionally return home to unwind with his parents and younger brother, Mark.
Sinner is expected to visit Sexten once more before beginning his preparations for the US Open. The town, proud of its homegrown champion, is even considering a local celebration in his honor. However, Sexten’s mayor, Thomas Summerer, admitted organizing an event may be tricky due to Sinner’s busy commitments, though he remains hopeful something could be arranged in the future.
