The historic inn sign adorning the oriel of the Nova Ponente hotel, Hotel Gasthof Stern, features a star that resembles a comet. A fitting symbol, since comets have guided travellers throughout history – and so does our hotel. Those who stay here know: they have truly arrived.
We belong to the „Terroir“
This feeling of arrival stems from the unique character of our house, first mentioned in the 15th century. Located directly on the traffic-calmed village square, the Gasthof Stern has always been a true village inn for the people of Nova Ponente.
Our hotel has been run by the Brunner-Pfeifer family since the 1930s. Today, Paul and Elisabeth lead the hotel, carrying our family tradition forward with fresh ideas and warm, personal hospitality. As a sommelier, Paul shares his passion for wine and helps our guests find the perfect pairing. Aunt Johanna heads the kitchen, delighting guests and locals alike with her dishes and homemade desserts.
It’s clear: Hotel Gasthof Stern isn’t a remote island, it’s part of village life. As Paul, our sommelier, puts it: “We are part of the terroir.” And our guests? Almost like family – certainly part of the community.
Looking to the future.
