The correct sentence is : Are there any hospitals there?

Any is a determiner used with uncountable nouns or plural nouns. This determiner answer the question :how much or how many?


e.g. Is there any milk left? - how much? [ uncountable noun : milk]
Are there any hospitals there? - how many? [ countable noun : hospitals]
