Penghargaan Hugo untuk Novella Terbaik
Pemenang dan nominee > Retro Hugo

Bermula pada Worldcon 1996, Perhimpunan Fiksi Ilmiah Sedunia membuat konsep "Retro Hugo", dimana penghargaan Hugo secara retroaktif dianugerahi untuk karya-karya dari 50, 75, atau 100 tahun sebelumnya. Retro Hugo hanya dianugerahi pada tahun-tahun dimana Worldcon diadakan, namun tak ada penghargaan yang aslinya diberikan. Retro Hugo telah dianugerahi empat kali, untuk tahun 1939, 1946, 1951, dan 1954. 1939 dan 1941 diberikan 75 tahun kemudian, sementara penghargaan lainnya diberikan 50 tahun kemudian. Tahun berikutnya, Retro Hugo dapat dianugerahi pada tahun 2022, untuk tahun 1947.
