Loved our room and the facility on whole. Staying here is truly once-in-a-lifetime.

The architecture of the hotel is amazing and is worth the visit to see the actual building. The vineyard is impressive and the tour around the estate including wine tasting was good value for money although an English speaking tour was not available during our 2 night stay - it would be worthwhile booking in advance if you want an... more

It was really a treat to stay at such a beautiful hotel with great service. The physical building is spectacular - that alone is worth the stay. Our room was in the alcove and did not face the building/town but it did not detract from our enjoyment - however, if you can get one facing it, all the better. The... more

Thought I'd give you an insight into my romantic winter trip to the Marques de Riscal hotel. Overall, we had an amazing time. OK first things first. Yes, it truly is an amazing building.

The concierge, Marcos, was ever so helpful and friendly... more

Room and accomodations were superb . The spa was ok . Medical histories were not taken at all from the clients . This could be problematic. Screaming uncorrected teenagers in... more

My wife and I had the chance to visit the Marques de Riscal Hotel in the Rioja wine country, for 3 days in May 2008. We were first impressed by the design of Frank Geary. A visit to Balboa, about an hour away, is a must because it is a great little city that has a Guggenheim Museum designed by... more

My wife and I plus another couple were travelling in the Basque region and booked one night here on our way to a conference in Barcelona. The minute we got here and saw this place, we booked an additional night and cancelled our first night in Barcelona. I am a well travelled person and have stayed in lots of nice... more
