Rita, Paulina and Christina Miribung

Three hosts, one perfectly attuned team and a house rich in history.

It only takes a moment to sense when a place is run by people who truly understand hospitality. When everything works seamlessly and yet feels genuinely alive, shaped by attention, passion and dedication.

The family-run Hotel Pradat is one of those rare places. Here, you meet three Ladin women who infuse it with spirit and soul: Mamma Rita, Paulina and Christina know exactly what it means to welcome guests. Never intrusive, never staged – instead attentive, present and authentic.

Together with a dedicated and long-standing team, they create what every guest hopes to find: a place where you feel genuinely welcome.

Mamma Rita: hospitality by vocation

In 1961, Rita and her husband Giuseppe fulfilled a dream: opening a small guesthouse in the Dolomites.

Rita cooked for her guests, loved listening to their stories and sharing tales of her region and Ladin culture.

Today, as then, she remains the soul of the house. Surrounded by flowers and her garden, she enjoys the peaceful haven she created so many years ago.

Paulina: an eye for every detail

Paulina grew up at Hotel Pradat. Organisation, service and attention to detail run through her veins.

She keeps everything running smoothly, cares deeply for both guests and the premises, and is always ready to perform small repairs – skills she learned from her father.

Christina: a bundle of energy and enthusiasm

Christina radiates passion and vitality. She loves speaking about Ladin culture, her valley and the Sassongher – the mountain that watches over Corvara.

Over breakfast or dinner, spontaneous conversations often unfold about the Ladin language, local traditions and the history of Alta Badia and South Tyrol.

It is through these moments that you come to truly understand the character of this remarkable region.

One of Corvara’s oldest houses

Some houses hold a wealth of stories...

...and the Pradat is one of them. For more than 60 years, it has grown alongside the family who created it, preserving what matters most to guests today: character, warmth and genuine hospitality. What began as a small guesthouse is now a welcoming family-run hotel in the heart of Corvara.

1961 – the beginning

In the sunny hamlet of Pescosta, Rita – already working in tourism at the time – and Giuseppe, owner of a small construction company, fulfilled their dream: Ciasa Pradat. A private house with five rooms, set at the foot of Sassongher and Col Pradat, opening its doors to guests from around the world – built with hard work, courage, excitement and curiosity for what was yet to come.

1966 – from Ciasa to hotel

Within just a few years, the property expanded, along with its team. Hotel Pradat was born, and the first staff members became part of the extended family. Over time, the small guesthouse developed step by step, never losing its authentic spirit.

A story that continues

Even today, Rita remains the heart and soul of the house, running the hotel alongside her daughters Paulina and Christina, guided by the very same vision as in the beginning: ensuring that every guest feels truly welcome.
