CASA ALHAJA BY SHIADU, Seville

Seville's main landmarks are all easily reachable on foot: the cathedral and Giralda are about 3 minutes away, the Real Alcázar is within 5 minutes, and Plaza de España is a 15-20 minute stroll. The narrow streets in the area can be tricky for taxis, but the central position means most sights, bars, and shops are just steps away. Seville Airport is 11 km from the hotel, and the nearest public parking is at Cano y Cueto, Roma, or Plaza Nueva-no on-site parking is available.

The breakfast is available for EUR 18 per person, from 07:30 to 11:00. It includes fresh pastries, local specialities, fruit, cereals, cold cuts, cheeses, and eggs cooked to order. Vegetarian options are available, and special dietary menus can be requested. There is no breakfast service at Casa Alhaja itself, but the sister hotel's buffet is well-regarded for its quality and variety. A complimentary coffee machine with tea, water, and pastries is available in the hotel lobby throughout the day.

The rooftop swimming pool is open daily from 08:00 to 21:00, all year round. It is unheated and modest in size-ideal for cooling off after a day of sightseeing rather than for serious swimming. The surrounding sun terrace offers loungers and chairs, plus panoramic views over Seville's rooftops and the cathedral. Drinks can be served at the terrace until 23:00. The space is a popular spot for sunset, and it is free for hotel guests.
