Hotel Alfonso XIII, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Seville

Hotel Alfonso XIII is a phenomenal luxury hotel with the best location in Seville. The historic hotel building is impeccable, the rooms are luxurious and in great shape, the service is friendly, and the location is unrivaled. What more could you want? The hotel also has a pool for relaxing during the hot midday hours, a delicious tapas restaurant, and a lobby bar serving up drinks and tasty bites. Bonus points for honoring Amex FHR benefits and upgrading us to a gorgeous suite—my daughter loved having a room of her own with a chandelier.

The Hotel Alphonso in Seville was unquestionably the most beautiful hotel I’ve ever stayed in. I traveled with my two adult children so we had a very large and spacious room. The bedding was very comfortable, bathroom was huge by any standard and the shower products were high end. Ample espresso coffee was provided in the room. The room had everything you would expect from a high end hotel yet it felt very boutique. The decor of the entire hotel was palace like, ornate and truly stunning. Breakfast was included and was very well done and expansive of everything you could imagine. One of the best features was the outdoor pool providing a well needed break from the heat. Lastly the hotel is perfectly located near the Alcazar (4 minute walk) and the cathedral. I hope I can make it there again! Highly recommend this hotel.

Worst hotel I’ve been to in Europe. Booked 2 rooms for a birthday but had 10 guests for dinner. Concierge was never around. I had to wait on 2 separate days which has never happened in 5 star hotel. Our room didn’t get cleaned 2 days in a row and after complaining the next day we were called asking to leave the room so they could clean the room. The restaurant staff didn’t pay attention and took their time, sometimes forgetting the orders. At the birthday waitress spilt the espresso Martini on the white table cloth before the guests arrived and seemed to be very unapologetic and unbothered. The hotel was so beautiful but service frustrated everyone that we couldn’t wait to leave.

This is a remarkable and historic hotel. First class in every way. The hotel staff is fantastic and so helpful and friendly. It is in a perfect location to see the historical sights and the hotel itself is like a museum itself. The rooms are beautifully appointed and spacious. Excellent shower and comfortable bed. Fitness center is good with plenty of cardio machines. Hotel has a beautiful pool and two excellent bars, including the American Bar which has live music on certain dates. If visiting Sevilla this is an easy decision - you really can’t go wrong here. A special thank you to Giovanni who gave us a personal tour of the hotel and made our stay special - he really is a difference maker and an amazing representative of the incredible staff this hotel has.

We have stayed at Hotel Alfonso XIII several times and it is one of our favorite hotels in the world. The hotel's aesthetics are unique and wonderful, but even that is outdone by the wonderful service provided by every staff member. The restaurants and especially the terrace are excellent as well, providing fantastic atmosphere and good food/drink. The hotel is in a perfect location to see the sights in the historic part of Seville. It is always a special treat to be a guest here.
