Hotel Alcázar de la Reina ★★★★

At Hotel Alcázar de la Reina ****, with its spectacular Mudéjar building, shadows of the past echo all around. This rich Andalusian history is felt in every silky, marbled surface, every aged, dark wooden beam, every piece of ornately intricate brickwork, and every tall archway and towering pillar. Located in the heart of Carmona's historic centre, the hotel enjoys picturesque views of the wide open green spaces of Vega de Carmona.

The bright double bedrooms keep with the tradition of Hotel Alcázar de la Reina **** and offer classic and elegant design. In each, you will find a marble bathroom and views of either the Mudéjar courtyard or swimming pool. With its large glass ceiling, and a network of supporting metal beams, the tiled courtyard is a striking and imposing space. The private, enclosed outdoor swimming pool offers a place of tranquillity, with creeping vines reaching up the walls and potted plants scattered about.

Sculpted busts, colourful murals, and artwork adorn the spacious public areas for you to leisurely explore. Experience traditional regional cuisine from Tabanco restaurant, while enjoying its beautiful outdoor terrace, where the faint sound of running water and mozárabe garden make an ideal accompaniment to any meal. For rustic dining, the cosy Tavern Tabanco serves Spanish tapas in a relaxed environment. Before bed, make a stop at the quirky Irish bar, decorated in a Victorian Dublin style and serving a range of international beers and, of course, Guinness!
Excellently located for exploring Carmona, this historic city centre offers impressive mansions, along with Arab and Roman buildings, to discover. The Puerta de Córdoba gate is just a few minutes’ walk away and it is only a 20 minute drive to Seville, the capital of southern Spain’s Andalusia region and a hotbed for fiery Spanish flamenco dancing. At Alcázar de la Reina ****, you are sure to find history, nobility, and comfort blended together to create a unique stay that you will never forget.
