Santa Maria Briones -
This family owned wine hotel is located in the region of La Rioja, and therefore offers some of the best wines in Spain. The rock walls in- and outside of the building originate back to the 16th century, making it a piece of protected world heritage. Being built around the rocks, this hotel is making this historical piece of nature part of the hotel’s narrative, making it a unique place to stay at.
History meets contemporary in this stunning artpiece of an hotel, just steps away from the vineyards and olive groves that make this town worth visiting.
Allegar Restaurant is a gastronomic restaurant inside the Santa Maria Briones Hotel. The restaurant specializes in wine, local produce and hospitality. The waiter's family-owned olive oil is a fantastic personal touch to an already extraordinary experience. In the region, Allegar means 'to clear the plate'.
