Loft / Duplex with charming historic center. WIFI

Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about this loft on Calle Cabeza del Rey Don Pedro? The name of the street itself – it literally means “Head of King Don Pedro” – which gives you a hint about just how deep into Seville’s history you’re diving here. I mean, we’re talking about the kind of narrow cobblestone street where you can practically reach out and touch the building across from you, and honestly, that’s exactly what makes this place so special.

The duplex setup actually works brilliantly in this old building – you get that sense of having your own little historic apartment rather than just another hotel room. The WiFi (which, let’s be real, can be hit-or-miss in these ancient buildings) actually holds up well, probably because they’ve clearly put some thought into the renovation without destroying the character. What I love is how they’ve managed to keep the original architectural details – think exposed beams and those thick walls that keep things cool even when Seville’s summer heat is brutal outside. The location puts you right in the thick of the old town maze, which means you’re walking distance from the Cathedral and Alcázar, but more importantly, you’re on the same streets locals use as shortcuts. I’d catch neighbors heading out for their evening paseo or coming back from the market, which gave the whole experience this authentic neighborhood feel.

Here’s the thing about staying this deep in the historic center – yes, you’ll hear some street noise because sound just bounces off these old stone walls, but it’s the good kind of noise. Church bells marking the hours, the occasional flamenco guitar drifting from a nearby bar, maybe some late-night conversation from people walking home. It’s Seville being Seville, you know? The narrow streets mean no car traffic right outside your door, which is actually a blessing since parking in this part of town is basically impossible anyway (take the train from the airport, trust me on this). What really sealed the deal for me was discovering that tiny plaza just around the corner where there’s this little café that locals actually use – not a tourist trap, just a spot where you can grab proper coffee and maybe a tostada before wandering into your day. The whole area comes alive differently at different times – quiet and almost mysterious in the early morning, bustling during the day, then settling into that relaxed evening rhythm that Seville does so well.

  Top locatie in het hart van het historisch centrum. Alles op loopafstand. Het appartement was netjes, bedden lagen goed en een supermarkt tegenover het appartement voor het halen van lekker broodjes in de ochtend. Vriendelijke gastheer die goede tips gaf voor wat er in de omgeving te doen is. Tip: boek op tijd je tickets voor bijvoorbeeld het bezoeken van de kathedraal want dat zit in het weekend snel vol
  
  What could be improved: Als je met 4 personen bent is het een beetje klein maar prima als je alleen van het appartement gebruik maakt om te slapen
