We have been visiting this hotel for nearly 10 years watching its transformation under the care of chef, Francis Paniego and his brother Felix. It is an attractive building in a lovely setting in the centre of Ezcaray, a mountain resort in the Rioja. From the hotel there is easy access by foot to lovely walks and bicycle rides in... More

We arrived in the afternoon after a beautiful car ride through Rioja,... More

One is run by the mother , Marisa Sanchez, and the other, El Portal, is run by the son, Francis Paniego; they share... More
