The Hotel Alfonso XIII, is a Luxury Collection Hotel, located next to Seville's Real Alcazares. Set on the edge of the historic Santa Cruz district, hotel is within 984 feet of Seville Cathedral and the Giralda. The Torre de Oro and the banks of the River Guadalquivir are just 328 feet away. The exquisite tile work around the hotel, the high ceilings and the impeccable service make this one a great jewel in the Marriott Bonvoy collection of hotels.

The shower was a little confusing, but nothing we couldn't handle lol. Amenities include a fully stocked fridge with cava and beer. And other snacks. The roof top bar with the plunge pool provides a prime lookout to view the city. Check out the sunset views! The location is pretty convenient. Just a 10-15 min walk to the major attractions of Alcazar and the Cathedral. The service was very pleasant, friendly, and helpful. From the time we checked in and offered us cava/champagne, to the tour they gave us of our room, to helping us book a flamenco reservation, they were always ready to help. I liked that the hotel also provided a list of restaurants they recommend. We tried a few of them and they didn't let us down! 10/10 would stay here again if in Seville.

Wonderful little hotel near the city center. Rooms of good size (we were in a "deluxe" room, which apparently was upgrade from superior). Bathroom includes bidet, shower, separate bathtub, and dual vanities. Would love to return.

This is one of the most unique hotels I have had the pleasure of staying. My husband and I spent…read moreone night in Sevilla in October and he picked the hotel because he had visited the city previously. Once we arrived in Sevilla, it was pretty easy to find. We dropped off our rental at the airport and hopped on the bus that took you into the city. We got off at the San Sebastian stop and walked with our suitcases a few blocks up to the hotel. I also liked that it was walking distance from many of the sights we wanted to check out. We were able to walk to a Flamenco show, the Real Alcazar and the Cathedral. We also took some scooters to Plaza España. The hotel itself was more so a blocks of rooms in a neighborhood square connected with a labyrinth of courtyards and gardens. The rooftop was really neat, too. There are different levels where you can lay out in the sun near people or more privately. There is a pool that looked neat but we didn't have enough time to get in before our show. The hotel itself is clearly very old (by American standards at least) but well preserved and beautiful. The hotel piano bar in the second floor is a must see, too. Don't miss it! The rooms were surprisingly modern. The bathroom was very spacious. The bed was a little firmer than I would have liked but it wasn't a deal breaker by any means. I would definitely stay at this hotel again!

I was grateful for the valet parking, not so much by the €25 a day charge. The building itself seems to be a collection of buildings spread around a number of internal and external courtyards. Our room was accessible via a long and twisty underground tunnel that stretched for at least 300m passing the spa, various bric a brac bits and pieces, statues, fountains, peculiar display areas that may, or may not, have been shops or small boutiques. I've no idea. It's almost impossible to describe how bizarre and yet how charming it all was. After a while, though, I have to confess it became a bit of a schlepp. Our room was small but the bed was extremely comfortable with a queen size bed and a decent sized, well provisioned, en-suite bathroom. A piano bar on the first floor was both elegant and comfortable and we repaired there each evening after dinner in one of the fabulous restaurants within walking distance. The hotel also opened out onto a small plaza with plenty of outdoor bar and coffee options throughout the day and into the night. A couple of minutes away was the Cathedral and Alcazar as were numerous shops, bars, restaurants and ice cream parlours (a must). I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel for a stay in Seville but leave the car at home,

Great hotel, well located near the cathedral!…read more This was an excellent hotel to stay in during our three days in Seville. Most locals are familiar with the hotel so it was easy to get to from the main train station. The check-in process was easy and I felt like the staff truly made an effort to make sure I was happy with my experience. The room was decorated in traditional/old-fashioned Spanish style and was clean and had enough room for two people. Others have mentioned the noise and I do have to agree that I did hear some from our next door neighbors, but it wasn't enough to really disturb my sleep. The breakfast was excellent with a great assortment of fresh breads and pastries along with typical eggs, meats, cheeses and fruits - definitely enough to leave satisfied and start the day. Considering the experience, price point and location, this is an excellent choice.

The rooftop has a nice view of the bell tower. It was quite noisy with the church bells ringing every 10 or 15 minutes at times, especially in the night, but if you can sleep through that, it's a great location. The cost was also quite reasonable (just over $100 per night). We stayed for 4 nights and got a deal through Capital One Travel for a discount.

It was a gorgeous hotel and beautiful room, situated a couple blocks away from the main Poeta, right in the heart of the city center. When we checked in, they gave us a welcome glass of cava in their beautiful courtyard. Our apartment had a large bedroom with queen bed, big living room with two twin beds off that room separated by a curtain, balcony, huge kitchen, and they provided a large bowl of fruit which we re-stocked during our stay from the local markets. Rick Steves says Poeta "captures the essence of Sevilla," and is "timeless elegance, in the heart of Santa Cruz, an old 17th century family mansion; tucked away among cobblestone streets; 17 rooms surround a tranquil central patio where guests relax and enjoy free evening classical guitar concerts. Fantastic view terrace and traditional Andalusian design." Totally agree with all of that. We enjoyed the classical Spanish guitar in the courtyard each evening while enjoying a glass of wine or cava. Absolutely recommend and would love to stay here on every future visit to Sevilla. Great service, too. Carmen, who checked us in was so calm and welcoming. It had been a hectic travel day, and she (or maybe it was the glass of cava?) calmed us right down. The next day, we had an issue w/ our tickets to the Alcazar, and Jose helped us retrieve them, too. Our bathroom was beautiful, but the floor of the shower was very slippery. We informed the front desk, and they sent someone to our room when we were out. My younger daughter, who does not speak much Spanish, let him in, but did not understand what he was saying. He proceeded to pantomime someone slipping. She woke up our older daughter, who speaks more Spanish, and said a man with a clipboard was in the living room. She told him: "Mi padre es loco," he laughed and put some non-slip strips down in the shower. Great stay.

Excellent stay at this small, charming, intimate boutique hotel in a great location of Seville…read more Close walking distance to all the major sites you will see such as The Cathedral, Real Alcazar, Plaza Espana, Setas and more. Ton of nearby restaurants and bars, yet in a secluded street away from the noise. Live musical entertainment every night at 7:30PM in the courtyard. Solid breakfast buffet with eggs, pancakes, cereal, fresh fruits and juices, smoked salmon and more. Nicely appointed rooms with impeccable customer service. Would not hesitate to stay here again.
