The "Ristorante Stazione" (its name being derived from the nearby railway station) was founded in 1906 by Costantino Turani and Maria Caffo. At that time it was a small bar and "trattoria", but its popularity grew with time and eventually it became an exclusive restaurant. In 1920 it started to offer rooms to the numerous visitors who spent their holidays in the town of Susa.
