Hotel Castillo El Collado

Property was very unique and cool at the city wall. Ver convenient too. What made the experience truly fantastic however was the level of service of the owner and front desk. Javier runs a top notch hotel and gave a personal level of attention and service that made us feel very special.

A wonderful place to stay for a remarkable and unique experience. Javier welcomed us and made our stay incredibly nice. We had special attentive service such as a welcome glass of wine and nightly water decanter placed in our room. The service overall was just top notch. We stayed in I think the best room, in the tower (In English it is called the and Madness room!). Absolutely beautiful sunrise and mountain views from everywhere in the room. On our last morning, we choose breakfast in the Solarium and it was incredible--- attention to detail and the exquisite tastes made this an amazing experience. Highly recommend.

Depending what you are looking for but it was a great place to stay in Laguardia … the castle is old but well preserved and the room was very roomy. Expect not too have all of the modern facility but this is what makes this hotel unique! Also, our host was Xavier and have looked after us for any needs and information you may need plus he is looking after breakfast in the morning which is a culinary experience ! The only challenge would be parking if you were coming by car as this hotel is part of the old town … brut there are public parking available within walking distance

Señor Javier was a gracious and attentive host with a wonderful smile. We wished we had planned a longer stay at this beautiful castle/hotel. The view from both our room and the tower was spectacular. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was huge, and Javier lays out a delicious breakfast. If we ever come back to this area, we will stay here!

Beautiful hotel with a stunning view from the top. The whole building has been furnished with such taste it is incredible, The host is an amazing man who couldn’t do any more to help us. We stayed in 9 different hotels during our travels and this was, by far, the standout.

We have been there for two nights. The first room (no 2) was big and beautiful - perfect for an old castle. The bathroom not up to date but everything clean and ok (we knew before due to the photos). We had very hot weather in August and the air condition was not able to cool the room down - so we did not sleep well. Next morning I told this the host (elderly man at the reception); he apologized and told us that we can change the room. We did this and although the room was smaller we were glad with the working air con and slept like babys. Why am rating with 5 points: the host (owner?) was so incredibly kind and hospitable that we didn‘t feel like being in a hotel rather than being his personal guest in a castle. After checking in he came to our room with two glasses of wine and water - awesome. It was a great experience for us to stay in this place. The location in the village is excellent. Maybe the nicest village in Rioja? Rooms were quiet.

On arrival we were told where we could park for free. Javier rushed out to help with our bags/suitcase. When shown to our room two glasses of wine arrived with nuts served by the owner Javier! The hotel although a castle has few rooms but quaintly old fashioned and in a terrific location. The owner has his restraunt underneath the hotel, food was good and considerably priced. The old medieval town is on the door step and the wine route. When staying in the hotel make the effort to go up the tower. Breakfast, a huge variety of things to eat, fruit, eggs, bread, meat, cheese, juice and T/C. the room was spotless, roomy and good quality linen. A fabulous stay, kind owner/staff. A total joy. Thank you Javier. DEFIANTLY worth more than the miserable 2 stars. My husband and I are well travelled from luxury hotels to bnb!

Excellent service and attention to detail. Amazing room with the most stunning views. Huge bathroom and lots of rustic charm. Allowed us to dine early and offered a very friendly welcome on arrival. Restaurant downstairs offered great tasting menu
