Gardena Grödnerhof Hotel & Spa is the first South Tyrol hotel to get 5 stars from Forbes Travel Guide 2022. The prestigious property, owned by the Bernardi family, is in Ortisei in the Alto Adige region’s Val Gardena valley.
A new spa and a Michelin restaurant
The Gardena, which underwent renovations in 2001 followed by a constant and substantial restyling and the creation of a new spa area, is an elegant and refined property. The new Gardena spa - which is the hotel's pride and joy together with the starred restaurant Anna Stuben – has been expanded to two levels with a huge swimming pool and a large and exclusive sauna area. In the Michelin-starred restaurant, the Anna Stuben gourmet restaurant, Chef Reimund Brunner delights patrons with his deceptively simple and truly elegant delicacies.
Four spacious new suites
This summer four new suites have been added to the exclusive Gardena Chalets. Right in the centre of Ortisei, with views of the old town they are perfect for travellers wanting to spend their holidays in complete privacy and comfort. The suites, on 100 to 110 square metres, are in Alpine style with modern furnishings and have two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious living area and balconies with large windows overlooking the historic centre of Ortisei, the forests and the majestic mountains around the hotel.
“The winners are the best of luxury hospitality”
"Travel is back, and while the industry faces persistent problems, the 2022 award winners have proven themselves ready for these challenges and more, demonstrating the best that luxury hospitality has to offer," said Hermann Elger, CEO of Forbes Travel Guide.
