Enoturismo in Rioja

I´m going to Rioja next week. Who knows an interesting enotourism hotel to stay for one or two nights?Guiri

A basic tool to organise your trip is http://www.lariojaturismo.com/
INMO the best option, nowadays, is the new Marques de Riscal Hotel, Spa and Cellars designed by the architect Frank Gehry in Elciego (http://www.marquesderiscal.com/) The hotel is operated by Starwood.

Cheers!!!

Hi Paco,
I will check it out if my wallet let´s me.
thanks,
Guiri

Hi,
For the moment the Marques de Riscal, Frank Gehry’s design, hotel is not available (it seems to be fully booked until next year...).
Check out the Hotel Villa de Laguardia or the Cosme Palacio Wine Hotel, both at Laguardia.

You also can contact some wine tour expert to arrange your stay, I know well this one: www.alacarta.org (it’s the travel agency of my wife, who knows well this region).

Best regards and enjoy your stay

Don’t know what market exactly the Riscal hotel is aimig at, as the prices seem to be somewhat extravagant for us mere mortals.

Think they’d let me put my tent up in the garden?

I stayed at hotel villa de abalos. Lovely place. www.hotelvilladeabalos.com. Situated between Haro& Laguardia. Vivancos Museum nearby (really worthwhile).

Thank you all for your hotel suggestions. Today I was ready to do the 750 km trip, but I never came any further than Xátiva. My car broke down and I was forced to go back to Alicante. This year no vintage shots oin Rioja. However, I already planned the next trip for the second week of November. I try to look at it from the positive side, I don´t have to look for a Hotel anymore.

Cheers

Its a pity that you could not go to Rioja at this time of the year, which is much more interesting than November, also because of the weather...

Best regards
