Arriving at the property feels like stepping into a picture-perfect postcard. Its award-winning <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/winery\/marques-de-riscal\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hotel Marqu\u00e9s de Riscal<\/a><\/strong> was designed by Frank Gehry. Opened in 2006, it is the definition of a modern classic, and the service is the epitome of the classically humble and attentive Rioja sensibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>61 guest rooms are located in two structures, and the main building is an architectural marvel designed to be in harmony with the surrounding environs. A titanium rooftop sculpture appears to flow like ribbon candy and to change with the movement of the sun. Guests are encouraged to linger and enjoy stunning sunsets from various vantage points. And, to ensure wellness is a priority, the property features a well-equipped fitness room and a spa. In addition, Hotel Marqu\u00e9s de Riscal encourages guests to enjoy a cozy bistro, vineyard strolls, a Michelin-starred restaurant directed by the famed Riojan chef Francis Paniego, and private scheduled visits to the historic winery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>Every thoughtful detail here is designed to appeal across demographics. The hotel is equally suited for families and couples, and can be used for retreats, weddings, and business events. The nearby villages are definitely worth visiting: El Ciego itself, a winegrowers village and only a five-minute stroll away, and the legendary Laguardia, about a 12-minute drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u00c1urea Hotel &amp; Suites<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Logro\u00f1o, Rioja Alta<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter wp-image-16722 size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"501\" src=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Aurea-Palacio-de-Correos.jpg\" alt=\"Aurea Palacio de Correos Exterior Rioja hotel\" class=\"wp-image-16722\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Aurea-Palacio-de-Correos.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Aurea-Palacio-de-Correos-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Aurea-Palacio-de-Correos-310x207.jpg 310w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image courtesy \u00c1urea Hotel &amp; Suites.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The long-awaited \u00c1urea finally opened in 2022 to much acclaim! <strong><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/ehq3\" target=\"_blank\">\u00c1urea<\/a><\/strong> belongs to a new boutique collection of Eurostar Hotels with 9 properties in total, 6 of which are in Spain.

Or, guests can relax into Matasellos Restaurant for a delicious meal featuring local Rioja ingredients and cuisine. Wander the town and soak up the vibe, with the famous Calle Laurel Tapas Trail, artisanal shops, cathedrals, museums, bistros, the banks of the Ebro, and more. The famous San Blas Rioja market is only blocks away and is filled with local charcuterie, butchers, and farm, and orchard delectables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nearby wineries located in Logro\u00f1o are a 5-10 minute ride outside the city and include <strong>Marqu\u00e9s de Murrieta<\/strong>, <strong>Onta\u00f1on<\/strong>, and <strong>Valdemar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/spain\/22-best-rioja-wineries-to-visit\/\" target=\"_blank\">Learn About 22 Rioja Wineries Perfect for Wine Tasting<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Hotel Santa Mar\u00eda Briones<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Briones, Rioja Alta<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter wp-image-16723 size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Santa-Maria-Briones.jpg\" alt=\"The interior of Santa Maria Briones Rioja hotel\" class=\"wp-image-16723\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Santa-Maria-Briones.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Santa-Maria-Briones-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Santa-Maria-Briones-310x233.jpg 310w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image courtesy Santa Mar\u00eda Briones.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Located in a 16th century manor home, Santa Mar\u00eda exudes the grandeur of a bygone era.

This luxurious and romantic hotel provides the perfect space for a couples getaway, or even just a space to reconnect with your travel companions (or yourself!).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typical of manor homes of the era, it has an ancient wine cellar, or <em>calado<\/em>, excavated from mountain rock restored to pristine condition. The dining room showcases authentic regional Riojan cuisine, and there&#8217;s a curious small stone staircase leading down to a former wine press where guests can enjoy a glass of <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/wine-resources\/crianza-reserva-gran-reserva-difference-spanish-wine\/\" target=\"_blank\">Rioja Reserva<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Venture beyond the hotel walls to the <strong><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/winery\/bodegas-vivanco\/\" target=\"_blank\">Vivanco Museum of Wine Culture<\/a><\/strong>, only a 15-minute walk downhill. Take a leisurely stroll into the enchanting medieval village of Briones to admire the spectacular views of the Ebro River and its surrounding vineyards. There are also plenty of opportunities to mingle with the local culture. For those wanting to explore the broader region, Haro is only about 10 minutes away and is the epicenter of hundred-year-old Riojan wineries.

It is, therefore, quite the draw for locals and visitors a like. <strong><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.winetraveler.com\/bz8t\" target=\"_blank\">Palacio Tond\u00f3n<\/a><\/strong>, which opened as a hotel in 2018, was formerly a 16th-century palace that juxtaposes architecture with the surrounding landscape. Guests are encouraged to sit on the delightful Tond\u00f3n terrace alongside the river rapids and savor Rioja wine, tapas and conversation at a table or fire pit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Palacio Tond\u00f3n offers 33 modern rooms, some with riverfront views. It is the perfect place for a romantic weekend, a couples or family getaway, a small business group meeting, or even a wellness retreat. Since wine and wellness do in fact go hand-in-hand, Palacio Tond\u00f3n offers a range of spa services, as well as ample Rioja wines to sample at the Enoteca. For those looking to explore the area, there&#8217;s a running\/walking path that runs right along the Ebro and leads into historic Haro.
