Seville
Seville is one of the most enchanting and captivating cities in Spain, and a perfect destination for a romantic holiday. The capital of Andalusia offers a rich and diverse cultural heritage, a warm and sunny climate, and a vibrant and festive atmosphere.
The first thing that will charm you in Seville is the architecture, which reflects the various influences that have shaped the city over the centuries. You can admire the Gothic splendour of the Cathedral, the largest in the world, and the Giralda, its iconic bell tower. You can also explore the Alcázar, the royal palace that combines Islamic, Christian, and Mudejar styles. Or you can wander around the Santa Cruz quarter, the old Jewish neighbourhood, where you can find narrow streets, hidden courtyards, and whitewashed houses.
But Seville is not only about buildings. The city is also home to some of the most emblematic and expressive forms of Spanish culture, such as flamenco, bullfighting, and tapas. You can experience the passion and intensity of flamenco, the traditional dance and music of Andalusia, by visiting one of the many tablaos, or flamenco clubs, in the city. You can also witness the spectacle and drama of bullfighting, the ancient and controversial art of the toreros, by attending a corrida, or bullfight, at the Plaza de Toros de la Maestranza. And of course, you can savour the delicious and varied tapas, the small dishes that are served in bars and restaurants, and that represent the essence of Spanish cuisine.

Hospes Las Casa Del Rey De Baeza
Our Favourite
In the heart of town, just a stone’s throw away from the charming convents of San Leandro and Santa Maria de Jesus, the Rey de Baeza is a truly captivating and unique hotel. Built in the 18th century on the very spot where King Ferdinand III gifted a house to the King of Baeza, these old buildings now house the Rey de Baeza. With 41 elegantly appointed bedrooms designed to keep out the summer heat, the hotel boasts slate floors, open corridors, and galleries that surround three beautiful courtyards. This Spanish colonial ambiance is further enhanced by a small rooftop summer swimming pool, a delightful restaurant, a cozy library, and a beautifully furnished card room.
Alfonso XIII
Our Favourite
We’ve Stayed Here
The Alfonso XIII, Seville’s most famous hotel, is right next to the Alcazar Palace and close to the Torre de Oro. After a big makeover in 2012, it now has 151 super-luxurious bedrooms with fancy headboards and tiled bathrooms. The central patio is a lovely oasis with covered walkways, orange trees, and a fountain. After a day of exploring, you can relax by the big outdoor pool or in the extensive gardens. The American Bar, which has been a favourite spot for locals and visitors since the 1920s, serves drinks by the pool and in the famous bar. There are two restaurants: the fancy ‘San Fernando’ and the more casual ‘ENA Seville,’ where you can try delicious tapas dishes.
Don Ramon
This former palace, now a hotel, opened its doors in early 2023. It still looks like a palace, with its courtyards and all. The rooms are different, but they all have a traditional Andalusian feel with North African influences. The restaurant, ‘El Limón,’ serves a delicious a la carte breakfast, tapas at lunch and dinner, and cocktails in the hotel bar all year round. In the summer, there’s also a small outdoor swimming pool and pool bar.
