The Hotel Marques de Riscal, Spain is a few minutes from the Marques de Riscal Winery in the heart of the Spanish Basque country close to Rio Ebro. It is between Pamplona, Miranda de Ebro, Burgos and Logrono. The hotel’s closest airport is Vitoria Gastiez which also services Bilbao. This architectural masterpiece was created by world renowned Frank O’Gehry designer of the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, the Walt Disney Concert Hall in LA, the New World Center in Miami Beach, the Dancing House in Prague, Cinematheque Francaise in Paris, 8 Spruce Street, NYC and the Art Gallery of Ontario.

The building oozes contemporary luxury and quirky style. The spacious interior feels even more open thanks to the large floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking stunning vineyards and a medieval village. The walls slope at different angles and O’Gehry made use of natural materials, pale wood and shiny metal with accents of bright red furniture. From the outside the hotel looks like it has had a shiny metal bow-tied sloppily around it.
