This hotel lies in the historic Jewish quarter of Seville’s central Santa Cruz district, and dates back to the 16th century. Nowadays it provides fine accommodation for those exploring the Andalusian capital.

The building was originally built in 1530 as a house for Señor Alonso de Villafranca, the former butler of the Marquis of Tarifa. The Marquis himself also stayed many times, as he also owned the adjacent Casa de Pilatos - now a tourist attraction. Today the hotel offers typical Sevillian hospitality.

On-site parking is available on a first-come-first-served basis. When full, guests can make use of a nearby car park (fees apply).

The rooms are divided into four categories, although each one is architecturally distinct and has been given a special touch in terms of decoration. Some of the rooms have an interior patio, others have a private terrace and others are duplexes.

All of the rooms are exterior with windows that open out to the typical Sevillan interior patio of the house. Such patios are ideal to combat the noise of the street and the heat of summer and are a typical popular architectural feature of North Africa and the South of Spain.

The hotel offers a traditional buffet style breakfast and also has a tapas and snack service.

For groups of more than 6 people, you can organise lunches and dinners upon request.

The hotel personnel will be able to advise you as to good restaurants in the area which serve Sevillan cuisine.

The restaurant will be closed until the beginning of 2009.

This hotel is situated in the historic centre of Seville, only a few minutes away from the main cultural attractions of the city.

Only guide dogs are allowed in the hotel.
