Wonderful hotel in the quaint town of Briones. Tasteful and modern design with a beautiful courtyard and small terrace on the 2nd floor. We stayed in a junior suite that was spacious, well designed, with great views and probably the biggest and most comfortable bed we have ever experienced. The gastronomic restaurant is a true gem with a thoughtful menu boasting well-balanced, surprising flavors and combinations. A restaurant that’s easily on a Michelin star level. They also have a small but well equipped gym we really enjoyed. So overall the perfect stay!
