Hospes Las Casas del Rey de Baeza, Seville, Southern Spain - Explore & Book

"A sublime city, a lovely hotel. You’re in the old town with a palace on one side of a cobbled square and a whitewashed church on another. Step inside and crisp, contemporary interiors seduce immediately. Impeccable rooms, airy sitting rooms and a rooftop swimming pool all elate, but it’s the 3 courtyards that take the biscuit. Old ceramic pots and mill stones are scattered about, colour spills from flowerbeds, stone pillars flank the sides and steps lead up to cloistered walkways that wrap around above. A great place to eat at any time.Inside, the style is warmly chic: smart, but you feel at home. In the dining room, a wall of glass looks onto a tiny courtyard shaded by banana trees. Sitting rooms are adorned with modern art, leather sofas and perhaps the odd occupied Victorian birdcage. You sleep on starched linen in charming rooms, the best of which have French windows that open onto the square. Delightful. Highs The whole place is gorgeous, with lots of relaxing corners, but the courtyards are hard to beatWe loved chilling at the tiny rooftop pool and wellness area, with views across Seville's terracotta skylineA convenient, quiet location – the Old Town's labyrinthine alleyways are just round the corner, the Catedral and Alcazar are a 10-minute walk Lows Rooms are expensive, but we feel they're worth it Some rooms are quite dark due to their windows opening onto the interior courtyardThe lower level rooms can be noisy, particularly those around the courtyard. Try to get a top floor room if you can" - Tom Bell
