Located in the medieval town of Elciego, the Hotel Marques de Riscal is the ideal starting point from which to explore the nature, tradition, and exquisite gastronomy found in The City of Wine.

Three couples will spend three luxurious nights at Hotel Marques de Riscal in La Rioja complete with a tour and tasting of the winery surrounding the property. Since its unveiling in 2006, this masterpiece created by Frank Gehry to house the Hotel Marques de Riscal has become a highly sought-after contemporary, luxury retreat. Design, art, wine, and the lush landscape all combine to create a memorable sojourn at The City of Wine. Tilted walls, zigzag windows, cathedral-height ceilings, and a host of other bespoke details create the impressions of accommodation as a work of art in its 43 rooms and suites.

Travel north to the beautiful coastal town of San Sebastia?n for three more nights of Spanish bliss at the Hotel Maria Cristina. Situated less than 20 miles from the French border on the Celtic Sea's scenic Bay of Biscay, San Sebastia?n is framed by golden beaches and lush hillsides. Its reputation as one of the world's great dining destinations is justly deserved boasting an impressive 11 Michelin star restaurants within its city limits.
