Rating by guests: 8.6 Based on 195 reviews

Exclusive and charming boutique hotel inspired in the Seville of the Al-Andalus times. This palace-house underwent a renovation that finished in May 2005. Located near the Basilica Santa María de la Macarena and opposite the Hospital de las 5 Llagas, seat of the Andalusian parliament. The hotel is placed where, according to the legend, Al-Mutamid (the king poet of Seville) hid from his father his love for the laundress Rumaykiyya. Its sober but elegant façade doesn’t reveal what’s to be found inside. The colour explosion and the tinkling water take us back to the Seville of Al-Andalus.
