My son and I had lunch here in October. The food, wine and service was excellent, what I want to tell you is that I lost my wallet here. After paying the bill, I left it on the table and walked out. In it was a debit card, credit card, my driver’s license and about 170 Euros. The next day I realized I didn’t have my wallet so I canceled the cards and wrote off the license and cash as a life lesson learned. A few days later, my bank emailed me that Javier at this restaurant had found my wallet and contacted the bank. My son, who speaks Spanish, arranged for my cards and license to be mailed back to me in Massachusetts. There was a problem with the cash as apparently it can’t be mailed internationally. To get around this issue the restaurant deposited the money into their account and did an online transfer to my son’s checking account.
I was happy just to get my license back. I never expected to see my money again and was thrilled to have it returned to me. The restaurant is great and beautiful, and you will surely enjoy anything you order, but you should also know that the owners and staff are honest and good people who go above and beyond what many businesses will do for customers who will probably never return (we live in the US.)
Thank you Javier and Mayor...
Read moreMayor de Migueloa is located in one of the most popular wine regions in Spain (if not the most popular). The name of the town is Laguardia, which used to be a defense post established in the 13th century. Laguardia provides a rich historical backdrop over looking Spanish wine country, which offers spectacular atmosphere and picturesque views.
My friend and I stayed at Mayor de Migueloa for a weekend and really enjoyed our stay. It's a family run business with charming decor through out the establishment. The old walls and rustic feel of the place takes you back in time, although the hotel is quite cozy, modern and clean. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating, and we also noticed the owner works closely with the staff on a daily basis, which probably accounts for the attention to detail. The restaurant was fantastic, and for any wine enthusiast, it's a perfect location to stay and travel in the region. Mayor wine is exceptional and I definitely took some home with me.
Whether you are from Spain or touring, its definitely worth the trip. Overall, we loved this place and enjoyed our visit and highly recommend its charm, service...
Read moreWe were so happy we chose this place. It was perfect. Entering the building was impressive, so historic and beautiful. We received such a great welcome from the lovely owner Javier. It was a pleasure speaking with him throughout our stay there. We loved our bedroom and the breakfast was so beautifully presented at our table the next morning ( a great selection of fruits, beverage's, local cheeses, meats etc) We also ate dinner at their restaurant and it was fabulous. The lovely lady who served us was so informative and helpful when choosing from the menu and and wine list from their own winery. It was the best dinner and wine we had during our entire trip. Thank you to the lovely yousef (hope i spelt correctly) who very kindly offered a tour of the cave winery downstairs ( Also thanks for your patience with our attempts at speaking french with an Irish accent! ) .His enthusiasm and passion for his job was wonderful. This is a generational family business with amazing staff.It's clear that they all work so hard in maintaining this successful and special place. We look forward to a return visit in the future....
