Hospedería Señorío de Briñas

Our small dog was made very welcome. The hotel is very comfortable and close to the centre of the small town/village. It is very old and full of antiques and fascinating pieces. I loved the monogrammed bedding, made you feel special. The bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was superb, lots of choice and we were welcomed to sit in the lounge with the dog so not in the restaurant but he was with us. The young woman on reception was very welcoming and very happy to tell us more about the local area and places to see. Her enthusiasm for the hotel and area was engaging. We ate in a lovely bar/restaurant, really good food. We strolled through the town and loved walking alongside the river Ebro. We loved our stay and would happily go back. We highly recommend this hotel. Lizzie and Steve

Old, characterful building. Quirky. Very clean. Only a small village but we’ll placed for restaurants. And of course the Rioja wine region. The staff were all friendly but the guy on reception was unbelievably helpful. I used the garage for parking, he shows me where the garage is then waits while I go and get the car to direct me to park - all for 9 euros a night parking!Recommended a brilliant restaurant and great value. If you want to go to that region, then it’s a great place to stay. Also not expensive.

Nothing

This slightly quirky hotel is in a spacious old nobleman's house (not a palace as described!) in the very attractive village of Briñas, which is full of interesting old houses and has two bars and two or three restaurants within easy walking distance. There are nice walks along the banks of the river Ebro, perfect for those travelling with a dog. There is a lift, and our room was large and well appointed with air conditioning, a comfortable bed and a good-sized bathroom, all spotlessly clean. The hotel has little outside space, but there is a small gravelled courtyard garden with chairs and tables which makes a comfortable spot for tea or drinks. The public areas are well decorated and furnished, with plenty of provision for the comfort of guests. The staff were all friendly, willing and helpful. The busy town of Haro with a wide selection of restaurants etc. is an easy 15 minutes' drive, but as in much of Spain be prepared for parking difficulties.

Breakfast is very good but the system is archaic. Instead of a self-service buffet arrangement as in most hotels, a member of staff comes to you with a long list of everything available from which you have to select what you want, which is then brought to your table. If you are there for more than one night exactly the same selection is brought every morning unless you remember to change it!

Stunning 18th century property with many original features. Had mini suite with very large bed very comfortable. Staff very friendly and helpful. Chose it because we have 3 small dogs and were welcomed. No restaurant in the evening but provided salads which were excellent washed down with local wine. Let us use side room for meals so we could have the dogs with us

Not a complaint but warning hotel in side street with parking round the corner. Took a bit of finding

Very romantic room (108), cosy, extensive breakfast, glass of wine at reception 🍷 Bed and cushions fine, nice bath and large room. Parking free, around the corner

Dinner possibility would have been nice. We had to look for something now which was difficult. In the end found very nice place. Be aware: dinner starts after 8pm!

Beautiful old stone hotel set in a great location in Brinas within striking distance of Bilbao. Spacious bedroom with very comfortable beds and a large bathroom. Excellent breakfast despite the strictures of Covid. Private parking was great given that we had expensive kit in the car. The cellars below the hotel are worth checking out if you get the chance.

The Hotel was just a rustic jewel full of details that transported you to a different era. The rooms were great, bright and the beds super comfortable. Breakfast was flavorful, plentiful, varied and made freshly every day. The staff was the best part of it! They will take the extra mile just to make your stay joyful. Angela (the owner) and her daughter, Mar are very sweet and helpful. And Ricardo is awesome. He will stay up until 2am just to make you dinner and give you conversation just so your first night you don’t go to bed with an empty stomach because you arrived late!

That we had to leave

Loved the interesting property with quirky furniture and decorative paintwork. The bed was large and very comfortable. The breakfast was fresh and tasty and the staff were friendly and helpful especially when we had a stormy downpour as we were leaving - bringing umbrellas etc.

We only just spotted the sign on the way in as the building was amongst others around it, whereas in the photo it looked like it would be easier to see.

I liked the location, breakfast, and beds. The place accepts dogs which is not very often in this region that you can find the place like that.

They admit dogs, but later at some point, one person from the staff did not make me feel welcome with my dog. There are very few places that accept dogs, this is one is very nice, but they have to make sure they are consistent.

Great location at the village outskirt...really lovely village...but with on-street parking. Staff speak very little English but are pleasant and as helpful as possible. Room was lovely, full of character (except for modern flat-pack wardrobe) with great linen and furnishiungs, .. super bathroom and a good breakfast. Rotten TV (no English programmes). Good experience, would book again.

Parking...TV...some English spoken would help.
