We were upgraded to the Tempranillo room, and I would stay here again if I had that room. It is very large with a big window showcasing a terrific view of the vineyards and countryside,with two chairs and a small table, and is relatively quiet because it is at the end of the hall. (Two single beds, though.) The other rooms we saw seemed rather small and dark, and faced another direction with little view.

Our room and bathroom were clean and well kept. Staff were polite, and reserved. We didn't eat any meals at the hotel.

The hotel is located a short distance outside the Laguardia city walls, a five to ten minute walk to the city center, uphill along a very small access road / pedestrian path. The walk is not unpleasant or difficult, even at night, although the incline is not for the aged or infirm. You can't drive inside the city, anyway, and must park outside the city walls.

We took the free tour of the winery offered to guests, in English, and had no problems arranging it.

Of all the towns we visited in the Rioja region (and Laguardia is not in La Rioja proper), I would definitely choose to stay in Laguardia again. It is not large and impersonal like Logrono, but is charming, historically well preserved, and big enough to offer a reasonable choice of restaurants and shops.

This old winery building was recently converted to a lovely hotel with 30 rooms. It is just outside the old town of Laguardia, and there is free parking right in front of the building. The hotel itself is great, but a bit pricey, which is why I give it only 4/5 for value. It is decorated with memorabilia and the history of the winery. A wine tour of their modern winery next door is complimentary with room stay.
My husband and I had room 2. It was charming and very quiet. We had a good bed in a very large room with ensuite full bath. Just turn on the tap and there is hot water right away (unlike some European hotels where we have stayed).
Don't miss the cellar museum which is entered by stairs descending from the delightful and airy breakfast room. We served ourselves in the morning from a huge breakfast buffet located in the dining room which adjoins the breakfast room. There is a small breakfast staff to supply coffee and tea, and reset the tables. The breakfast was terrific with eggs and bacon, not just cold dishes. There was even wine offered with breakfast! So instead of going back to the medieval town (where there is limited parking) for dinner, we decided to ask for the demi-pension option the hotel offers, and eat there for dinner, too. It was an amazing meal with huge courses, and side dishes. There was so much food that we couldn't get through it all, which was a shame as it was all excellent. Well, we should have asked. The price turned out to be €77 pp for 3 courses with wine included. Then there is the tip! Just be certain not to make our mistake...if you take the demi-pension option, for goodness sake don't eat lunch. The dining room itself deserves a visit when there are no patrons dining - just walk around the room and study all the old photos and the old winery equipment displays. So interesting!

I spent one night in this nice place with a couple of friends. The building is an antique bodega with a very characteristic touch. The rooms are cozy and have a nice view of the wineyards. One of the things we mostly appreciated was the free small bottle of Rioja in the room that we drank in the bar/lobby area of the former beautiful wine cellars of the hotel. Breakfast was okay, could have more selection. The lady at the reception was friendly in contrast to the waitress....

We stayed in "Riesling" for 3 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. First of all, it should be noted that while you can walk to Laguardia, you have to do so along the edge of the road (no footpath) and up quite a hill. It is not really a convenient walk, but if you don't have a car in Rioja then you're clearly mad, so this should not be a problem. The Laguardia area is an excellent launching pad for days of fun exploration of all the Bodegas on offer - most places of interest are within a 30 minute drive.

The room decoration is bordering on kitsch, well, perhaps not bordering, but somehow the floral patterns and oversupply of useless bathroom accessories (do people really still need combs?), all added to the charm. The room was very large and the bed enormous (although I hate how so many parts of Europe have 2 single beds together as their double - my wife feels so far away). The wifi worked perfectly in our room, as did the bath (in case you were wondering). Breakfast was great and I can honestly say was the only time I've ever been offered wine with my breakfast! When in Rioja...

When staying in the area, make sure you do lunch at Hector Uribe and at Baigorri if possible - both were superb.
