Hotel Overview

Seville is situated in the heart of Spain and Hotel Alfonso XIII in the heart of Seville. A landmark since 1929, the hotel symbolizes the city's Moorish influences and provides access to the renowned Santa Cruz quarter and Guadalquivir River. The hotel's décor, from the lobby to the inner-courtyard, is reflective of typical Sevillian-style. This ambiance also pervades at the outdoor swimming pool and gardens, which entice guests to relax and refresh under the warm Andalusian sun. The 147 guest rooms pay homage to different eras of Seville and Spain's layered past. Varying between Isabelline Baroque, Castilian, and Moorish-style, all house authentic antiques and vibrant walls covered in a luxurious blend of silk and linen.

Devised by the architect José Espian Muñoz, the Hotel Alfonso XIII was though out and built to be a hotel of 'great luxuries and magnificence'. Its rich interiors, its elegant lamps, which hang from elaborate and luxurious ceilings, the marble and wooden floors, the rugs from the Royal Tapestry Factory, the decorated flagstones, are all still testimonial of the category and perfection attained by very well chosen craftsmen and artists, both local and from other parts of Spain. So, from the very first day of its opening, the Hotel Alfonso XIII was able to find a place comfortably among the best hotels in the world.

Both the exterior architecture and the interior distribution are clearly marked by the influence of Arab art, characteristic of that Spain which was long and profoundly Islamised. Its facade of ochre red brick, its windows of crafted iron, its horseshoe shaped arches, its svelte marble columns, its capitals, minarets, and that superb central patio which is open to the sky -covered by an agile tilt when the bad weather appears- and adorned by a central fountain which fills the atmosphere with soft music and the space with elegant and subtle movement.

Hotel Alfonso XIIIs many dining options invite guests to enjoy the singular experience resulting from the fusion of authentic Andalusian and international flavors, contemporary techniques, and an incomparable atmosphere. The prestigious Restaurante San Fernando and Bar Alfonso celebrate the Sevillian high-life. Taste regional and international dishes, cocktails, coffee, or tea in their cultured and classic settings. Alternatively, Piazza Martini offers a flavor of the city's sophisticated and modern creative culture. Sample exclusive cocktails, avant-garde tapas, and oysters in the modern outdoor setting where relaxing music plays in the background. In the summer months, enjoy a leisurely brunch or bite at the poolside Snack Bar or indulge in an exquisite pastry and classic tapas year-round at Bar San Fernando.

The Les Clefs d'Or concierge and always available team are on-hand to provide guests with information on the hotel's many services and amenities and to assist with everything from travel arrangements to organizing an exploratory Andalusian excursion.
