It was built together with an elevated wire-way II, which connects Štrbské Pleso (Štrbské Mountain-lake) with the Solisko peak. The chalet is close to the upper end of the wireway. The chalet was opened already in 1944, although finished 2 years later. It was built as a shelter for skiers offering bed and breakfast in case of bad weather. Its first chief was František Bujak. In the 1960´s there was a plan to pull it down for its bad technical condition, but thanks to rock-climbers it was repaired and its visitor-rate rose up. As a result, dining-hall was enlarged. The chalet was completely rebuilt in 2003. Nowadays it is leaded by Milan Štefánik. The chalet is a suitable starting point for a hike to Predné Solisko.
