Pros
  • The location doesn't get much better! You'll stay in a vineyard surrounded by vines, wineries, and mountain views in the middle of La Rioja wine country. 
  • Since you'll be on an actual wine estate, you can enjoy wine tastings, tours, and a wine museum showcasing the region's history of winemaking.
  • It's a very small hotel with just 21 rooms, so it feels quiet and private.
  • The hotel's restaurant offers delicious regional cuisine and the hotel's own wines.
Cons
  • The hotel is located in a rural area and may not be convenient for those looking to explore the city.
  • The experience is unique, but the rooms could use some updates.

Authenticity

Hotel Eguren Ugarte is located in the heart of Rioja Alavesa wine country and is surrounded by vineyards, making it an authentic destination if you'd like to immerse yourself in La Rioja. The hotel features a wine museum that showcases the history of winemaking, and you can enjoy wine tastings and tours of the winery. 

Location

You'll be in the heart of Rioja Alavesa wine country, but not too far from some of the bigger cities and sites. Plan for a 20-minute drive to get to Logroño, a city filled with historic sites, museums, and restaurants. It's the same time to drive to Haro (known for its wine-tasting district) and Briones, perfect for visiting the renowned Vivanco Museum of Wine Culture. If you'd like to hike in the Parque Natural de Izki, plan for a 45-minute drive. 

Rooms & Bathrooms

Hotel Eguren Ugarte features spacious, comfortable rooms with modern amenities. All rooms have stunning views of the vineyards and mountains, and it's worth an upgrade to grab a unit with a balcony or terrace. In general, the rooms feel a little plain compared to the overall experience you'll get here, so maybe some simple updates would do the job. Still, you'll undoubtedly enjoy the setting and sleep well in your room, all with air conditioning.

Other Highlights

The main highlight of Hotel Eguren Ugarte is its location and surroundings. If you're after a unique experience, staying directly in a vineyard in La Rioja is pretty special. Adding to the adventure is the property's wine cellar, wine museum, and wine-tasting tours. You'll also enjoy a daily breakfast and can eat other meals at the hotel's restaurant serving regional dishes and Eguren Ugarte wines. There's also a bar and terrace.
