Andalucía?s capital is undoubtedly one of Spain?s most evocative cities.I love visiting Seville, as it is a city where striking architecture and fascinating history is brought alive by the unique energy and culture of Southern Spain. It doesn?t feel like a theme park ? it?s a vibrant, living city.
For a luxury city centre stay, in the heart of Seville?s labyrinthine old town, then choose the family-owned Hotel Corral del Rey Seville, a historic property full of eclectic, creative style and upscale elegance, writes Andrew Forbes.

Andalusian Capital
Seville is emblematic of the warmth, colour and energy of Spanish culture.
…a vibrant, living city
This is a exotic, captivating city that makes for a compelling city break. Over the years I have got to know it well, and without doubt the best place to stay is within old town. Not only does this historic quarter convey the magic and charm of Seville, but it also means you are in walking distance of pretty much all the sights.
Casa Palacio
Corral del Rey is one of the most established boutique hotels in the city. Created by a family with a consistent track-record in luxury hospitality, the property is within converted ?casa palacios?; striking noble houses once homes to the city?s wealthy when Seville was at the epicentre of world trade with the Americas.
One enters the 17th century Corral del Rey through huge old studded doors into a classic Andalusian courtyard patio, surrounded by ancient Roman columns.
