WELCOME TO HOTEL ALFONSO XIII
Even before its birth the Hotel Alfonso XIII was destined for great things. Designed by architect José Espiau Munoz as a residence for
international dignitaries visiting the Ibero-American Exhibition of 1929, the Alfonso XIII’s ambition was simple: to become the grandest hotel in Europe. Twelve years of building work - and an investment of four million pesetas, or 10% of the Exhibition’s total budget - were required to
achieve the Alfonso’s peerless degree of luxury and magnificence. Characterized by its elaborate decoration in the Andalusian.
Regionalist style fashionable in the early years of the 20th century, the hotel was finally opened on 28th April 1928 - in good time for the
Expo - by its namesake, Spanish king Alfonso XIII. The hotel is situated on land that once belonged to the San Telmo Palace and became public property after the Duchess of Montpensier donated the palace and its gardens to the city. The Alfonso XIII quickly became one of Seville’s best-loved buildings and an integral part of the city’s social life.

The hotel is beautiful and in an outstanding location that can't be beat. The staff was fantastic. As mentioned, you can't beat the location for walking to all the things you want to see and do. Just outstanding. Minor complaints- the dinner we had was just average and was somewhat slower than expected. Also, the room was tiny! We could barely walk around once we opened our luggage. Other than that, a great experience!

First, we reserved connecting rooms for our family of 5 to be together. I opted not to use points because I was unable to secure connecting rooms with point rooms. I was given a long list of rooms that could possibly connect. However, when we arrived, we were given rooms that were not connecting and not near each other despite our request. I was told they could move us the next day, but there was no follow up the next day. I would have used points to pay for the rooms if I knew that it would be impossible to get connecting rooms. For such a large list of connecting possibilities, it is disappointing that Hotel Alfonso did not make an effort to fulfill our request, especially because we paid an exorbitant amount for two rooms. Secondly, when we arrived in our Premium suite, the sink was leaking. We had to leave for a previously scheduled event. When we returned after dinner, the sink was still leaking out of the faucet. We turned the sink on and it made a very loud banging sound. I called the front desk to inform. While on the phone, my husband was able to tighten the plumbing under the sink to stop the noise. We both took a shower. At 12:30pm, I then I turned the second sink on to brush my teeth and the other sink started to bang even louder this time. I called the front desk and had to request they send someone from maintenance immediately despite them offering to send someone the next morning. (The front desk personnel could not hear me on the phone because of the loud crowd in the lobby. I offered to walk to the front desk so he could hear me. He insisted I stay in my room and yell over the phone so he could hear me.) The maintenance guy came and was able to disconnect the plumbing in the sink and said he would come back at 10:00am the next morning. Because of this problem, we did not get to bed until 1:30am and had to wake up early the next morning, resulting in a great lack of sleep. I had to ask the front desk at 10:45am the next morning to remind them to send the maintenance guy. When we returned later that afternoon, the sink was repaired. I showed video to the front desk personnel with the obnoxiously loud sink banging and the the front desk did not offer any bit of a concession except "I'm sorry." Marriott should have provided some type of concession for the inconvenience and disruption for the amount of money we paid for the room. Other small problems during our stay I would normally overlook, included hair in the tub upon arrival, a broken automated shade that would not close (maintenance repaired that the next day), and the lack of water bottle replenished despite multiple requests. We are very disappointed in our stay at the Hotel Alfonso XIII. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone despite my previous loyalty to Bonvoy Marriott Hotel Collections. I hope to return to Seville in the future, but will NOT stay at this hotel. For the record, the breakfast buffet was large and assorted, but did not taste fresh. Again, very disappointing stay and not worth the money.…

Dear Karen C, We thank you for taking the time to share your comments from your recent visit at our hotel. Providing the highest level of hospitality is our number one priority and I sincerely apologize for failing to meet your expectations. I have shared your feedback with the rest of the management including our chief engineer in order to keep improving the services we offer to our guests. It’s a shame we didn’t have the opportunity to go through all the issues you expose personally in the property as me and my front office management team are always available for any issue a guest might have during their stay. Again, I do really appreciate the time you have taken to provide us with your feedback and hope we will have another opportunity to welcome you back to the Alfonso XIII. Best regards, Christian Medina Front Office Manager

despite the reputation and the fame of the place, we reserved for inside dinner alongside the patio. It has been a real nitghmare since the staff was busy with one wedding party and one company event... we have been waiting for hours to get our food and when it was put on the table my meal was cold. we ordered some desserts and it came also with delays. I dont think such an hotel should treat clients like this they should alert the guests that events are running all over the place and noises and conversations and people smocking in the patio in front of us... this is really unacceptable! Food of the restaurant san fernando is really common noting special. we had a drink outstide and could enjoy a delicious blanca sangria and attended by charming and educated belgium waiter.

This is an excellent hotel in all respects and fulfills its 5 star promise. The location is perfect - 5 mins walk to the cathedral, Real Alcazar, river and parks. Service throughout the hotel is flawless and in particular eating in the courtyard setting is special. Two small points- perhaps more gluten free options, and better instructions on the tricky way to access the hotel by car. Highly recommended for a visit to Seville.

Lovely, well appointed rooms. Just beautiful public spaces. Great location for touring. The outdoor pool was not heated and no hot tub but a good bar and plenty of seating. Very extensive breakfast buffet and friendly staff. Restaurant ena served tapas but staff kind of forgets about you and the food is just ok. A lot of weddings on the weekends so pick your room location carefully.

Amazing hotel with outstanding service from the staff and the perfection central location in Seville. All staff throughout our stay made us feel like we were their only guests. Nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is full of character and history. Beautifully decorated throughout. The bedrooms are exceptionally clean with all the facilities you need, beautiful smelling toiletries to add a special touch. The restaurant bar and reception all welcoming areas spotlessly clean serving outstanding food and not forgetting the Courtyard which is the perfect setting for drinks and food. The best hotel we have stayed in. If you are looking for something extra special this is the hotel.

Hotel Alfonso XIII is set in a fantastic location next to the majestic emerald Guadalquivir River. Its within walking distance of all the sights and places of interest. The building is incredible inside and out and steeped in history. It's a real privilege to be able to stay in such an amazing building. I had the best G&T on the patio in the most wonderful surroundings. The hotel oozes quality and elegance. The staff are trained to exceptionally high standards, discreet but extremely intentive at the same time. The staff will do everything in their power to make your stay the best it can possibly be. They are passionate about their hotel and their city and use their knowledge to make excellent recommendations to suit your personal interests. I love Seville, it is one of my favourite cities. If you are going to stay in one of the best cities, why not stay in the best hotel in that city? Trust me, you will not be disappointed. …

I must compliment Mr. Carlo Suffredini, General Manager of the Alfonso XIII Hotel in Seville, and his entire Staff. As a regular guest of the hotel, my experience staying at this hotel has been consistent and very pleasant, comfortable, and enjoyable. Only can say glowing remarks about Mr. Suffredini and his entire Staff, not only about the courtesy extended to my wife and me since the moment we arrived at the main door of the hotel but always being called our names with the feeling sensation of being greeted by the doorman, bellboy and all the hotel staff, and the front desk greeting with that feeling of “Welcome Home Away from Home” during our stays in a consistent manner. The service was impeccable in all departments. The gastronomy of the food and beverages presentations of the hotel menu items are very appealing and colorful, with a good taste, especially with that final Seville touch final flavor. Another observation. We must complement the maintenance of the building of this Iconic Hotel and the cleanliness of the hotel’s facilities and food and beverage outlets. Our room’s décor, furniture, our bed and must say that cleanliness in our room has always been impeccable as well in all the public areas. Finally, we want to say that your rates and product are just right. Once again, we thank you for making us feel “welcome home away from home" Definitely, we will recommend your hotel to our family members and friends to stay at The Alfonso XIII Hotel in Seville. PS. We will come back again for the Seville Fair as previous years …
