What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
In Seville’s old town, Casa Palacio Don Ramón is a 19th-century mansion turned 26-room hotel, designed to feel like a noble home.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Plaza del Duque sits just down Calle Trajano, and the timber canopy of Las Setas is a short stroll away.
The rooms
Quiet, soundproofed bedrooms feature heated stone floors, bespoke headboards, and tailored joinery under ornate ceilings.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Green tiles and potted banana plants line the rooftop plunge pool. Sun loungers look out across the old town rooftops.
Restaurant
Restaurante El Limón
Dining tables surround a marble fountain under courtyard lemon trees. The cellar holds fifty different Andalusian sherries.
El Limon Bar
Carved Moorish arches rise over the marble counter, where bartenders mix Seville orange cocktails and serve local tapas.
How it began
Before reopening in 2023, the nineteenth-century palacio spent decades serving as the headquarters of Seville's Chamber of Agriculture.
