The Villa de Abalos was a highlight of our recent 10 day trip to Spain. We stayed just two nights but really loved the place. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and the location is really beautiful. The highlight has to be the great value food and wine. We had dinner with their own wine both nights and loved it.... more

I fully agree with a lot of the other reviews I have read on this hotel - we stayed for 2 nights together with our 2 teenager boys - our program was not very developed and within minutes of hesitation, carlos managed to set up our 2 day program and find the right balance between winery and easy going with... more

Located in the tiny town of Abalos (about 10 minutes from Laguardia), Hotel Villa de Abalos serves as an ideal base for your food/wine adventures in La Rioja. We found the hotel in Maribel's Guides (an excellent online source in planning your Spanish travels).

When we arrived, we were greeted by the friendly staff, who helped us plan day trips. What's great about this... more

My boyfriend and I visited this hotel for one night and loved it. The whole Rioja region is beautiful but Abalos especially is a stunning and TINY vllage - be warned - most of the roads barely even fit a normal car's width! Hotel Villa de Abalos is situated in the middle of the village in a restored mansion house... more

We stayed here to visit some of the wineries planning on a three night stay but shortened it to two nights. The inn is really very well run, staff very helpful. The decor is whimsical, probably would have preferred more of a traditional decor, but that is minor, rooms were dark with small windows, beds were very firm and bath... more

Our Tour de Espana took us to Wine Country and we couldn't have had a better experience with this property. Its rustic renovation with modern touches put it right in place for Abalos architecture while giving quality furnishings for a comfy stay. Get the top floor rooms with jaw-dropping views of the valley. You're not going to sleep in here... more
