Seville is one of Spain's most elegant cities, and the Hotel Alfonso XIII is one of the most elegant structures. The hotel was built in 1929 to host heads of state, and the elegance dictated by the situation remains. The hotel is next door to Seville's university, and near many flamenco theatres (Seville is the home of flamenco), as well as the cathedral. This award-winning (many times over) hotel is currently part of the Starpicks group, where tourists-to-be can reserve last-minute deals at great hotels. By reserving within two weeks of your upcoming trip, you can save at least 20% off the normal rate. It makes living like royalty so much more affordable.
