The best route to take is via the A22 Brenner motorway (take the Brixen/Bressanone exit if you are travelling from the north, and the Klausen/Chiusa exit from the south). From here, the roads are well signposted so it should be easy to find your accommodation.
There is plenty of parking in the town, including free and charged car parks.
