The hotel was originally built in 1890 as a private villa by the then-famous local architect Pietro Delugan. It would serve as a perfect example of his art and skill as it has one of the most beautiful façades in Merano. The building is now justly recognized as a true Art Nouveau structure and has been listed since 1984.

The villa, pleasantly situated along the cool, shady riverside walk once known as the Stefanie Promenade, was sold to the Pöder family in 1907. They managed it as a guest house through the troubled times of the 2 World Wars and the very unsettled period that followed. Many famous guests have spent their holidays at the Westend, including the German poet Gottfried Benn, who wrote many letters and poems to friends and family during his stay.

The Strohmer family had long been active in the hotel and catering business when they bought Hotel Westend in 1983. The hotel was completely renovated, with both taste and style. The Westend was awarded 3-star status in 1986.
