Life’s Grand
for the Curious
Grand Gardner Hotel is an invitation to stay in curiosity. Set in an 1899 schoolhouse in the heart of Valparaiso, the property has been restored to inspire moments of deep relaxation, unscripted discovery, and seamless connection with our community.


Named for adventurer and civic innovator Joseph Gardner, our space blends thoughtful hospitality with approachable elegance—inviting guests to look closely, linger, and reclaim everyday grandeur.
