What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
behind the doors of this 16th-century building, that’s exactly what you’ll find — contemporary interior architecture, retro-modern furniture, plentiful splashes of bold color, and lots of concrete and glass
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Santiago's quiet lanes lead straight to the Guadalquivir river, and the Mezquita is a short walk away.
The rooms
Bedrooms keep things minimal with smooth micro-cement bathrooms and retro-modern furniture in bright accent colors.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The spa
A sunken hot tub sits inside a cobalt-blue chamber, and the glass-walled lounge looks out onto the courtyard.
How it began
Gerardo Holgado bought the sixteenth-century building in 2005, when it housed a luthier and a concert cellist. Six years of restoration followed.
