Palacio Tondón, La Rioja
An idyllic escape in the heart of wine country and on the Ebro River, complete with stunning views and fine dining
Overview
Kimkim's Take
- The location is ideal, especially if you'd like to be right in the middle of La Rioja's vineyards and enjoy views of the Ebro River, wineries, and mountains in the distance.
- You'll stay in spacious and elegantly decorated rooms, all with a mix of modern and traditional elements.
- For meals, the on-site eatery, River Flume Restaurant, serves delicious local and seasonal cuisine.
- The hotel has an amazing terrace right on the river with views of the surrounding countryside.
- Of course, you can sip local wine in the hotel's cellar and bar.
- The hotel is quite expensive, so it may not be suitable for travelers on a budget.
- Though you'll be perfectly comfortable in the standard rooms, you must upgrade rooms to enjoy the views.
Authenticity
Palacio Tondón is set in a beautifully restored 17th-century palace, which blends seamlessly with the modern design elements throughout the hotel. The decor features local artwork and traditional materials like wood, stone, and clay, creating an authentic and welcoming atmosphere. The hotel definitely highlights its location in La Rioja, and you'll have plenty of opportunities to enjoy local wine and gastronomy.Location
Palacio Tondón has a unique and beautiful location on the Ebro River. You'll be in the heart of La Rioja wine country, just a short drive from some of the region's top wineries and vineyards. The hotel is in the picturesque town of Briñas and is just steps from the village's main square and church. You'll be just a 7-minute drive from Haro, known for its wine-tasting neighborhood, 10 minutes from the Vivanco Museum of Wine Culture in Briones, and 40 minutes from Logroño.Rooms & Bathrooms
You'll stay in cozy yet modern quarters regardless of your room selection. All units feature comfortable beds, luxurious linens, and contemporary decor, with some rooms offering views of the surrounding countryside. Upgrade your room if you'd like to relax on your own private balcony or terrace, and grab a suite for additional space and amenities like separate living areas and fireplaces. Some suites also have near panoramic views, thanks to upper floor settings and walls of windows.Other Highlights
Enjoy relaxing and unwinding on the hotel's outdoor terrace along the river. As you sit and enjoy a drink, book, or meal, you can listen to the rush of the Ebro River and catch glimpses of vineyards and mountains. The hotel also features a top-rated River Flume Restaurant serving delicious local and seasonal cuisine. And since you're in La Rioja, the hotel provides a wine cellar and a bar/lounge area with plenty of local varietals.Like what you see?
