Viura
Avant-garde architecture in Rioja wine country
Set against the backdrop of a traditional Spanish village, Viura is an architecturally flamboyant, modern hotel with dramatic mountain views of the Sierra de Cantabria. With a fine dining restaurant, a bar, a wine cellar and a gym, this is a striking yet particularly comfortable bolthole from which to unravel the mysteries of the Rioja Alavesa wine country.
Externally, Viura resembles a pile of precariously placed cubes complete with terraces, and balconies. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows in the 33 stylish guest rooms and suites provide superb views of the village, the mountains or the neighbouring 16th-century church.
Riojan and Basque cuisine is served in Viura’s equally impressive restaurant which has large wine barrels suspended from the ceiling and picture windows looking onto the garden. Needless to say, there is an extensive wine list.
