Hotel Alfonso XIII

TIME : 2016/2/19 1:35:32

As much a monument as it is an accommodation option, and certainly more affordable if you come for a cup of coffee as opposed to a room, this striking only-in-Seville hotel – conceived as the most luxurious in Europe when it was built in 1928 – was constructed in tandem with the Plaza de España for the 1929 world fair. The style is classic neo-Mudéjar with glazed tiles and terracotta bricks.

There's a small museum inside relating its history. Turn left in the lobby.
