About this apartment rental
PALACE HOUSE SAN JOSÉ II Baroque Elegance with Private Gallery
A home with history in the heart of Seville's monumental district
In front of the Madre de Dios convent and in the epicentre of the historic centre, this 17th-century Baroque house rises, masterfully restored by architect Rafael Manzano, a reference in the conservation of the Royal Alcázares. Here, travellers experience the most authentic noble Seville, in a space where craftsmanship, heritage and contemporary comfort coexist with absolute naturalness.
San José II is part of the five apartments of the palace complex and pays tribute to the Sevillian cabinetmaker Francisco de Paula Farfán, born in this same house in 1869 and whose artisan legacy remains present in the rehabilitation.
The building: a living palace
Access via San José Street 7 leads to the hallway with a large wrought-iron gate, to the first courtyard and an open room that leads to the main porticoed courtyard, with Roman marble columns, fountains and lush terraces with pergolas.
Inside, a celebration of crafts: classic ceramics, noble woodwork, coffered ceilings and plaster mouldings that make each room a unique piece.
The apartment (125 m² private gallery-terrace)
Distributed around the main courtyard, this bright apartment combines generous proportions, high ceilings and noble materials —marble, wood, artisan ceramics— with a carefully curated contemporary Spanish style decoration.
125 m² interior
Private gallery-terrace of 25 m²
Additional access to landscaped terraces and upper solarium (over 180 m², shared use)
Three bedrooms, all with en-suite bathroom
Social zones
On the left side of the access, the independent kitchen opens up, fully equipped.
A corridor leads to the living-dining room, decorated with period Spanish pieces and modern furniture. This space, bright and welcoming, is perfect for reading, conversing or watching TV, and has a dining area for six diners. A toilet serves the daytime area.
The living room opens onto the glazed gallery-terrace, with sliding panels and views of the main courtyard, a corner full of calm and light where one can enjoy it at any time of the year.
Rest area
Master bedroom: 160x190 cm bed, noble wood headboard, spacious wardrobes, desk and full en-suite bathroom.
Bedroom 2: two 90x190 cm beds, built-in wardrobes, desk and en-suite bathroom.
Bedroom 3: identical layout to the previous one, also with en-suite bathroom.
Two of the bedrooms connect directly to the gallery-terrace.
The terraces of the Palace
On the third floor, one of the great attractions of Casa Palacio San José awaits:
an elevated garden full of vegetation, solarium with rain shower and corners to have breakfast or enjoy the sunset with views of the domes, bell towers and terraces of the Jewish Quarter. On this floor, the common laundry room is also located (washing machine, dryer and individual clotheslines).
The experience
From this privileged location 5 minutes from the Cathedral and the Giralda, and steps away from the Santa Cruz Quarter and Murillo Gardens you will be able to enjoy monumental, gastronomic and cultural Seville in a walk full of stimuli.
The building houses five independent apartments (San José I, II, III, IV and V), with a total capacity for 22 guests.
If you are travelling in a group, you can book several or even the entire palace.

Great location. Much better than a hotel. We used the apartment to relax after our long flight from California.

This place was really charming and nice. Centrally located, safe and clean. Plenty of space for my family to relax from the heat and enjoy the patio. The hosts were great.

Beautiful property with lots of room for our mumti familt group. Great location in walking distance to many sights, restaurants, cafes, etc. Highly recommend! Easy check in and responsive to messages.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2024
We were 3 couples that stayed for 4 nights. Great communication and service from the property management.
We were very excited about this property based on the listing. The courtyard is beautiful and having the communal rooftop deck was great. We were lucky that no one else staying used it, so it felt private.
The apartment itself was nothing special and in fact is due for a renovation based on the description. The living/dining space is very small for 6 people and 2 of the 3 bedrooms only have twin beds with no option to move together. Bathrooms & kitchens are tired and dated. While the home is historic, the 90s renovation is evident.
It can also be very noisy depending on who else is staying in the building as all the apartments open to the courtyard. There were kids crying and screaming very early in the AM during our stay and it sounded like they are in your unit.
While certainly not terrible it is definitely not worth the nightly rate given the other options in Seville.
