Common facilities include free private parking, free WiFi throughout the property, a tour desk, room service and a relaxation area with Turkish bath, sauna and whirlpool tub. Breakfast, served buffet-style and continental, rounds out an offer designed for those visiting Val Gardena both in winter and summer.
Garni Hotel Iris offers ten types of accommodation, from more compact double rooms to two-bedroom apartments designed for families or small groups. All options come with a private bathroom, flat-screen TV and balcony, with views that in most cases open onto the surrounding mountains or the property’s garden.
Those looking for more space can choose between the Studio with kitchenette, the Apartments with full kitchen and dishwasher, or the Suite with Terrace, which pairs the double room with a lounge area featuring a sofa bed. The Single Room with Mountain View remains the most suitable option for solo travellers. Room sizes range from 20 to 65 square metres, allowing guests to choose the solution best suited to the number of guests and length of stay.
Rustic-style room with an equipped balcony and mountain views, furnished with wooden furniture and carpeted flooring. The bathroom has a hairdryer and free toiletries; an extra bed is also available on request, in the form of a sofa bed or single bed.
Studio with a lounge area and kitchenette, designed for those who want a degree of independence without giving up the comfort of a hotel room. The balcony opens onto the surrounding mountains, and an extra single bed is available.
The largest of the two-bedroom apartments, with mountain views, two separate balconies and a full kitchen with oven or microwave. Bed linen and towels are already included, ideal for families or groups of up to four people.

Garni Hotel Iris pays particular attention to relaxation, with a wellness area that includes a Turkish bath, sauna, hammam and whirlpool tub, as well as a spa room with sun loungers and deck chairs. The outdoor spaces, including a garden and a terrace with outdoor furniture, offer places to relax in the open air with views of the surrounding Dolomites.

Rounding out the offer are an on-site café and bar, free WiFi throughout the property and free private parking, a valuable perk in a mountain destination like Selva di Val Gardena during peak season.
Garni Hotel Iris is located along Via Dantercepies, in one of the most central areas of Selva di Val Gardena, among mountain huts and restaurants that can be reached on foot in just a few minutes. The setting is typical of Val Gardena, with pastures and Dolomite peaks surrounding the town in every season.
Right in front of the property, about 50 metres away, is the Baita Panorama Huette Ristorante, while Baita Ciampac Hut is 200 metres away and the Suinsom restaurant is 600 metres away. Passo Sella, one of the four passes on the famous Giro dei Sella, is 9.3 km away, while the Saslong ski area, a historic stage of the Ski World Cup, is 9.4 km away. Passo Pordoi can be reached in about 22 km, and Bolzano Airport is 47 km away.
In winter, the location is convenient for reaching the Dolomiti Superski slopes, of which Val Gardena is part, while in summer the area is well suited to hikes towards Monte Pic (680 m) and Sella del Culac, both just a few kilometres from the hotel. The in-house tour desk is a good starting point for organising day trips in the surrounding area, from easier trails to via ferrata routes in the Gardena Dolomites.
