Marqués de Risca - Vineyard Hotel





Nestled in the heart of one of the oldest Spanish Wineries, and designed by worldwide renowned architect Frank O. Gehry, Marqués De Riscal is a Luxury Collection Hotel. This hotel is Frank O. Gehry’s second masterpiece in Spain after driving Bilbao's urban revival with the Guggenheim Museum. Located in the heart of the Rioja wine region, this is the perfect place for relaxing.

Offering 43 modern, comfortable suites Marqués De Riscal features a modern, comfortable atmosphere and unique design by Frank O. Gehry. Enjoy the views of the vineyards and the town of Elciego, while sitting in the bay windows.

The main restaurant is set to become one of Spain's leading centers for fine gastronomy, combining traditional Rioja cuisine with modern influences by the well-known Echaurren Restaurant. Enjoy the cuisine at Marqués de Riscal Restaurant and the more informal Bistro 1860 with traditional cuisine. Furthermore, the hotel offers a wine bar in a more informal setting, a rooftop bar and lounge with panoramic views and open fireplace, guided tours of the 150 year old wineries and an ancient wine cellar, which was converted to a banqueting space.
