Las Casas de la Juderia
These 15th century palaces, now combined into a four star hotel, are located in the Jewish Santa Cruz Quarter, five minutes walking-distance from the cathedral. It is the former home of the Duque de Béjarone and is located in one of the most charming neighborhoods in Seville, where important families of the Spanish high nobility like Zuiigas, Padillas and Manriquez dwelled. The hotel's beautiful guest rooms are each individually decorated in true Andalucian style and are complimented by its traditional patios and fountains.
