Around 1900, the family of Vinzenz Demetz bought the entire property from Anton and Marianne Kasslater,
which included the old building with an adjoining tavern, a small emporium and a stable. Hotel Stella was constructed in 1908 on the site of the old La Bula tavern.
In 1924, Karl Demetz demolished the barn to build Hotel Zum Stern (now the La Bula pizzeria), the first hotel in Selva Val Gardena equipped with a central heating system and hot and cold water in all rooms.
Following the Second World War, the hotel was restored in 1951, which is when the historical part took on its current appearance.
The wing of the hotel where the old tavern stood was demolished in 1963 by Demez Vincenzo, and replaced by the new part of the hotel which still exists today.
