Facilities

This bodega hotel has a contemporary design (David Delfin) and has a very airy feel. Common spaces are large and well decorated (some art too), and the rooms are also very well done - not too over-designed, but still special (with an ingenious hidden shower/wash cabinet). The balcony has a gorgeous view over the  surrounding vineyards of the Rioja region. The breakfast/restaurant area is served downstairs in a kind of Scandinavian setting (again with nice views). The food is really excellent and the “house”wine more than palatable. For the quality it’s (still) very low priced.
