Coveted Central Location
This hotel in Seville couldn’t be more central. Set right in Plaza del Duque in front of the popular Spanish department store, El Cortes Inglés, it’s a short walk to practically every major monument and neighborhood. For example, you can get to the the cathedral, the Alcázar palace, or the river in just 15 minutes. You’re also steps away from one of the biggest and easiest taxi pickups downtown, which means you can easily hail a cab to anywhere in the city.
Tranquil Common Spaces
Despite the central location, Don Ramón maintains an uncanny level of quiet. Step into the lobby and you’ll immediately notice the peaceful atmosphere sheltering guests from the hustle and bustle of the city. The two courtyards (one is just for guests) are citrus themed, with oranges and lemon trees filling the spaces and a delightful fountain in the middle. The designers kept some of the original tiles, while adding new vibrant designs that keep with the regional styles and celebrate Andalusian architecture. And don’t miss the rooftop bar and pool area, where you can lounge and take in the sunshine any time of the year. They also have a designated TV room where you can relax and unwind after a long day of sightseeing.
Uniquely Designed Rooms
One of the top reasons Don Ramón is one of the best hotels in Seville is because of its unique room offerings. Each of the 25 rooms is specially designed – no two rooms are exactly the same! Renowned interior designer, Alejandra Pombo, drew her inspiration from the rich tapestry of cultures that has shaped the city. The Seville suite is a particular favorite, with its stunning wallpaper and bed frame decoration. We also love the modern elegance and geometric patterns of the Al-Andalus Junior Suite. And for those of you traveling with families or in groups, the hotel has a special wing where you can connect four rooms together with a private central living room.
An Art Lover’s Paradise
Beyond the stunning designs of the hotel, Don Ramón is an art lover’s paradise. You’ll discover pieces throughout the property from the owner’s personal collection. It’s like staying a museum! Whether it’s paintings in the common spaces, rooms, or even in the bathrooms, no space goes untouched.
Destination Restaurant & Bar
Hotel restaurants in Seville are rarely worth a visit, but Don Ramón’s El Limón is an exception. The fine dining kitchen is helmed by chef Ali Elkardoud who is originally from Morocco. Along with his exceptional culinary skills, Elhardoud adds his flare to the Andalusí menu, a style utilizing local flavors and ingredients with nods to the city and chef’s north African heritage. Enjoy the exquisite tasting menu, a-la-carte items, or delightful tapas at the bar, which could easily be one of the city’s most beautiful bars – stay for a cocktail!
Exceptional Service
Great service is a must at any five-star grand luxury hotel. But the staff at Hotel Don Ramón go above and beyond to make you feel at home. Whether it’s answering questions about how to navigate the city, or offering beverages and comforts, they do it all with genuine pleasure and a smile. Don’t forget to ask about the history of the building itself, with is full of fascinating secrets and stories.
State-of-the-Art Technology
A restored 19th-century palace is last place we’d expect high tech. But Hotel Don Ramón is dedicated to staying on top of the latest technology in the industry. Rooms offer the latest installations so you can stay comfortably. The spaces are designed to conserve electricity and they also utilize geothermal energy and thermal insulation for heating floors in the winter time. Soundproofing is an important component of maintaining their unique space, as well as a personalized adjustable scent diffusing, and a rooftop pool with current adjusters that’s ideal for lap swimming.
