Hotel Alfonso XIII, Seville

San Fernando, 2, Old Town, 41004 Seville, Spain. (show on map)

Expert reviews

Frommers review:

“No question about it, this is the swankiest address in town. Hotel Alfonso XIII is a palace built for King Alfonso XIII of Spain to host important guests when Seville hosted its great exhibition in 1929.”

Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Seville.

Fodors review:

“Inaugurated by King Alfonso XIII in 1929 when he visited the World’s Fair, this grand hotel next to the university is a splendid, historic, Mudejar-style palace, built around a central patio and surrounded by ornate brick arches. Classic meets modern throughout the hotel, which has been graciously restored over the years.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Seville.

Telegraph review:

“This magnificent landmark hotel framed by palm trees is a much-loved piece of Seville’s history. With lamps bearing crowns and regal beds, you could say it’s fit for a king or queen. It’s also one of only two five-star Gran Lujo hotels in the city, and offers on-site cooking courses and wine tastings.”

Hotel Alfonso has several rooms to choose from, ranging from deluxe queen rooms to several ornate suites. The design of the suites and rooms was influenced by Moorish, Andalusian, and Castillian styles, just like the rest of the city.

An oasis of excellence in Seville

Historic building- architecturally interesting and extremely well maintained. Perfect location within walking distance of the key sites. Quiet, comfortable with superb service.

Perfection would have been a little heating of the outdoor pool

We loved Seville!

Lovely big room. The breakfast was good and the staff were very good. Beautiful hotel. It was my husbands 60th and they made it special for him.

The room was too dark. The double bed was made up as 2 singles although i asked for a double bed. I booked the reservation so i should have been under as the lead, but the hotel had everything in our friends name, so i feel they benefited from my requests that i had asked for.

A fabulous hotel in a wonderful city. A must do place to stay and be in Spain.

The ambience of the hotel was fabulous with gorgeous pieces of furniture, vases, lights and tiles befitting the era,The room was spacious, bed and pillows extremely comfortable and bathroom amenities second to none.The location was perfect- walking distance to all the main attractions as the hotel was near the centre of town. The little touches of complementary chilled sparkling wine, home made chocolates and an opportunity to sample the splendid marmalade from Sevilla oranges was much appreciated. The meal at the San Fernando restaurant was excellent and very good value. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Overall my sister an I had a wonderful four days in Sevilla and would highly recommend this hotel as a fabulous place to stay..

Nothing could have been better,

a beautiful hotel in a wonderful setting with warm and helpful staff

thank you for helping to make my 60th Birthday a special and memorable occasion

trying to locate the car park - might benefit from signage as the one-way system around the hotel is extremely difficult to navigate as a tourist.

OK'ish

Arrival and meeting , greeting Brilliant Concierge Breakfast

Irrespective of any costs, our meal on the first night of our stay was so disappointing that on the second evening we went out. We visited a small privately owned(?) restaurant "The Cairo" who presented the quality of food we expected from your hotel.

Very enjoyable stay, lovely staff, very beautiful historic building with a cool and shady courtyard.

Location excellent, staff friendly efficient and eager to help. Very helpful with my husband who has poor mobility. Food very good and breakfast varied and delicious

Disabled access not very satisfactory, lack of walk in showers in Grand Deluxe rooms cause a problem for those with mobility issues. We needed to use staff lifts to access the building. We were unable to access reception by lift, the only way was to use the rather steep stairs from the main body of the hotel. Buffet breakfast a bit of a problem, difficult to carry a plate when using a walking aid.

Amazing wedding anniversary stay at a stunning hotel

Beautiful property and arguably the nicest hotel in Seville. The restaurant was stunning and food was incredible. Staff at reception (particularly India) were brilliant in helping organise our lovely anniversary stay.

A delightful hotel with really welcoming staff and outstanding service.

The hotel is truly beautiful and located ideally for a short trip to Seville. It is one of the landmarks of Seville in its own right. The facilities are outstanding and the staff were just a dream to experience.

O a couple of mornings we found that our cups and saucers have not been replaced from the previous day when the room was made up, which meant we are unable to have a coffee in bed before going down for breakfast. This was the only negative in otherwise perfect Stay.
