Hotel Hospedería de los Parajes

Hotel Hospedería de los Parajes is a historic boutique hotel located in the heart of the walled medieval town of Laguardia, the capital of Rioja Alavesa. Restored from an ancient palace that preserves a 16th-century underground wine cellar (calado), the hotel seamlessly combines history, refined interior design, and wine culture. Facilities include complimentary Wi-Fi, an on-site gourmet wine shop, an indoor courtyard café, and parking options (private paid parking outside the town walls or nearby free public parking).

Guests enjoy tailored hospitality paired with curated regional experiences. The hotel arranges a variety of activities to immerse visitors in the local culture, such as wine tasting introductory courses in the historic 16th-century cellar, horseback riding through scenic vineyards, mountain biking tours, and interactive grape harvest activities during the season.

The hotel features 18 unique rooms and suites, each individually styled with period furnishings and attention to detail. Categories range from spacious Standard and Superior rooms (featuring rain showers with natural pebble floors and courtyard views) to Superior Jacuzzi rooms decorated with handcrafted stone mosaics of Bacchus. The ultimate experience is provided by the 55 m² Deluxe Suite, featuring a mezzanine lounge, a large jacuzzi, and a terrace with views over the town square. All accommodations include climate control, a minibar, a safe, plasma TV, bathrobes, and customized toiletries.

The culinary proposal celebrates the rich gastronomic heritage and local produce of the region across different spaces:

• "Los Parajes": A refined dining room serving modern cuisine rooted in local traditions, paired with an extensive wine list.

• "Las Duelas": A traditional dining space set above century-old barrels, offering views of the 16th-century cellar through glass floor sections.

• El Calado: Located in the palace's underground cave, offering wine tastings, tapas, and local snacks in a 500-year-old historic setting.

Located in the subterranean vaults of the palace, the spa is a sanctuary dedicated to health, relaxation, and body care. The thermal circuit features a power shower, aromatherapy shower, Turkish bath, ice fountain, and a large jacuzzi. Guests can choose from an extensive menu of tailored massages and specialized beauty rituals, including signature winetherapy treatments, hyaluronic acid facial treatments with Kobido massage, and gentle children's massages.

Located within the car-free medieval walls of Laguardia (Álava), the hotel offers a prime base to explore the capital of Rioja Alavesa. Known for its historical architecture, such as the polychrome portal of the Church of Santa María de los Reyes, Laguardia features a labyrinth of subterranean caves and a rich cultural calendar, including the Bagpiper Day and the San Juan festivities.
