LUXURY HOSPITALITY

Gardena Grödnerhof

In the heart of Val Gardena, Gardena Grödnerhof is a true institution of alpine hospitality, where a deep sense of place meets refined, contemporary luxury.  The hotel has been lovingly run by the same family since 1923, a legacy that is felt in every detail of the experience. Focusing on the well-being of its guests, this iconic property, has evolved beautifully over time through a bold and thoughtful refurbishment, with continuous upgrades carried out to the highest standards. The rooms and suites are designed as warm, inviting retreats. Spacious and filled with natural light, they feature elegant hardwood floors, soft alpine textures and refined details inspired by the surrounding landscape. 

What makes Gardena Grödnerhof so extraordinary?

  • A perfect balance between alpine tradition and contemporary luxury. The hotel has evolved beautifully over the years without losing its soul. Warm woods, elegant interiors, soft lighting and refined details create an atmosphere that feels intimate rather th. an ostentatious — true luxury in the Dolomites.
  • Exceptional gastronomy.  Culinary excellence is an essential part of the experience. Guests can embark on a refined gastronomic journey across the hotel’s restaurants. The legendary Anna Stuben restaurant, led by chef Reimund Brunner, holds a Michelin star and is considered one of the finest dining experiences in the Alps. What makes it special is the ability to reinterpret South Tyrolean traditions with elegance and precision, without ever feeling forced. The Gardena Restaurant and the 4 Sajons offer equally memorable dining moments, celebrating both local traditions and international flavors, while the elegant Lounge & Bar provides a chic, relaxed setting at any time of day.
  • An extraordinary level of hospitality. This is probably the hotel’s real secret. Guests consistently mention how genuinely warm, attentive and personal the service feels. It’s luxury without stiffness — something increasingly rare today. The Bernardi family has built a culture of hospitality that feels sincere and highly professional at the same time.
  • One of the best locations in Val Gardena. Right in the center of Ortisei, yet surrounded by mountain serenity, the hotel offers immediate access to the Dolomiti Superski area in winter and spectacular hiking and biking in summer. It works equally well for active travelers and for guests simply seeking wellness and beauty.
  • A spa and wellness philosophy designed around true well-being.  The Gardena SPA is truly the jewel in the crown — an expansive sanctuary of over 2,500 sqm spread across three levels, dedicated entirely to relaxation and regeneration. Here, guests can immerse themselves in a world of well-being, from indoor and outdoor pools to saunas and quiet relaxation areas. A curated selection of treatments includes holistic Ayurveda programs and Alpine Beauty rituals, inspired by local herbs and natural elements, creating a deeply restorative experience for both body and mind.
  • At Gardena Grödnerhof, luxury is not about excess — it is about balance, authenticity and attention to detail. It is the feeling of being welcomed, of reconnecting with yourself and with nature, and of experiencing the Dolomites in their most elegant and genuine form.

Our Travel Tips & Signature Experiences

Le Corbusier, one of the most noted architects of the 1900s, defined the Dolomites as the 'most beautiful architectonic work in the world’.

  • A truly exceptional destination for active holidays, offering an extraordinary range of experiences throughout the year — from hiking, trekking and mountain biking in the warmer months to skiing, snowboarding and a variety of winter sports in the snowy season, all set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Dolomites.
  • In winter, direct access to the legendary Sella Ronda — one of the most iconic ski circuits in the world — offering an unforgettable experience across four Dolomite passes, surrounded by breathtaking alpine scenery
  • For a slower, more contemplative pace, snowshoe hikes through silent forests and untouched landscapes
  • For something truly memorable, horse-drawn sleigh rides through snow-covered valleys create a fairy-tale atmosphere
  • Cross-country skiing enthusiasts will find beautifully maintained trails
  • Seceda at Sunrise or Sunset. Take the cable car up to Seceda and experience one of the most iconic panoramas in the Dolomites. The light here is everything — soft, dramatic, almost surreal
  • Hiking or Skiing in Alpe di Siusi to enjoy the dramatic peaks of the Sassolungo and Sciliar
  • E-bike experiences offer the perfect way to explore the Dolomites effortlessly
  • Wood carving is a deeply rooted tradition in Val Gardena, where craftsmanship has been passed down through generations. Discover this authentic local art through visits to traditional workshops, where skilled artisans create intricate sculptures and decorative pieces entirely by hand
  • A Slow Walk through the Pedestrian Village of Ortisei. Boutiques, cafés and artisan shops create a refined alpine lifestyle atmosphere
  • Just a short journey from Val Gardena, (45 minutes) a visit to Abbazia di Novacella is one of those experiences that adds depth and soul to any stay in the Dolomites. The visit to  the Abbazia combined with a wine tasting is one of those quietly extraordinary experiences — cultured, sensory, and deeply rooted in the territory.
  • Perfect combination with a refined city escape to Venice or Verona
  • Perfect combination Dolomites & Lake Garda
