The history of Hotel Gassenhof in Ridanna/Ridnaun

Our hotel looks back on a history of almost 40 years. Back then, possibilities for accommodation were few and far between in the beautiful village of Ridanna/Ridnaun. That’s why Adolf and Helene Volgger decided to open a small guest house. Construction started on 1 August 1973 and only shortly afterwards, on 1 June 1974, Gassenhof was officially opened.

1974-1982

The Gassenhof accommodation soon becomes popular with guests from all walks of life, thanks to the hard work and warm hospitality of the Volgger family.

1982-1994

1982: The outdoor pool and tanning lawns are added.
1988: The lounge, gym, sauna and solarium are added and the dining room is enlarged.

1992: Dormers are built on the North and South side of the hotel.

1993: The hotel’s guest rooms are renovated.

The big renovation

1994 is a year of many changes at Hotel Gassenhof. Renovations included the enlargement of the guest parlor and the construction of a non-smoking dining room, as well as a new-look façade, making the hotel an even more attractive accommodation in Ridanna/Ridnaun.
