Originally built as the premier hotel to accommodate royalty and heads of state in 1928 for the Iber-American Exposition, Hotel Alfonso XIII in Seville, Spain has recently undergone a renovation. The hotel is named after the king who commissioned its construction and the architecture reflects Spain’s past, blending Moorish, Castilian and Andalusian styles. Luckily, at the request of guests and focus-groups, many of the original details have been preserved. Stone arches, brickwork, wrought-iron balustrades, frescoes, crown moldings, and ornamental wood carvings have been left untouched allowing the beauty of the past to remain intact for today’s guests.
151 luxurious guestrooms and suites with spacious, well-appointed interiors give guests a comfortable experience which balances authenticity with modern amenities such as high-speed internet. Sevillian ceramics, antique furniture, marble floors, crystal chandeliers, patterned area rugs, silk and linen walls, and mesmerizing views of the city center, gardens or courtyard all welcome guests to stay a while.
Today and for over 85 years Hotel Alfonso XIII has been a gem and showcase hotel for travelers all over the world to experience the exclusive richness and beauty of Seville, Spain.
