Availability request

At the heart of Passo Gardena, where Val Gardena meets Alta Badia, Hospiz is your privileged starting point to explore the Dolomites. A contemporary mountain lodge shaped by 130 years of history, authentic hospitality and essential design.

Here, every day begins closer to the mountain — and before anyone else.

Why Hospiz

Closer to the Mountains

At 2,121 metres, Hospiz turns location into privilege.

At the heart of Passo Gardena, the natural gateway between Val Gardena and Alta Badia, framed by the dramatic Sella Massif and the protected landscapes of the Puez-Odle Nature Park, it offers immediate access to some of the most spectacular scenery in the Dolomites.

While others are still making their way up from the valley, you are already here — stepping onto the first snow, setting out on empty trails, or enjoying the silence of Passo Gardena after the day has moved on.

1896 — 2026

A place that has always welcomed those on the move

The first Hospiz opened on Passo Gardena in 1896, when crossing the Dolomites was still a demanding journey. It offered travellers, mountaineers and merchants a warm meal, a safe shelter and a place to rest before continuing on.

For more than 130 years, Hospiz has remained part of the identity of Passo Gardena.

Today, Hospiz comes to life once again. The building has been completely reimagined, but the values that inspired the original Hospiz live on: authenticity, simplicity and a deep connection with the landscape that surrounds it.

Experience More. Commute Less.

Staying at Hospiz means spending less time getting to the mountains—and more time living them.

Be among the first on the Sellaronda, hike directly into the Puez-Odle Nature Park, ride the legendary Dolomite passes or climb the iconic Little and Great Cir via ferratas at sunrise and sunset.

Wake up early to reach a summit at sunrise. Stay out until the last light paints the Sella Massif in shades of pink.

Some experiences can only begin when you’re already at 2,121 metres.

Small by Design. Big on What Matters

Just 23 carefully designed rooms. 17 mq. An intimate shelter.

A space where the landscape enters through the window, dissolving the boundary between your room and the Dolomites beyond.

Inspired by the simplicity of an alpine bivouac (the essential spirit of the original 1896 Hospiz), natural materials, smart solutions and thoughtful comfort make every centimetre count.
