Thompson Seville, a 101-room hotel set within the landmark La Gavidia building on Plaza de la Concordia in the heart of Seville’s historic center, is now open. It is the brand’s first property in Andalusia and its second hotel in Spain, following Thompson Madrid.

“Seville is a city that is lived as much outside the home as within it – over a coffee, around the table or gathering with friends late into the evening. We want Thompson Seville to feel part of that rhythm,” said Olivier Rust, general manager, Thompson Seville. “Whether someone is staying with us for a few days, meeting friends at Casa Mayo or coming up to the rooftop at sunset, our hope is that the hotel becomes a place people return to and make their own.”

Thompson Seville occupies the landmark La Gavidia building, one of the few examples of Modernist architecture in Seville’s historic center. The transformation, led by Carlos Llansó of Exacorp One and Mario Ronquillo of Estudio 2RDIP, preserves the building’s architectural character while adapting it for a new chapter as a hotel.

Interior design by Jorge Lozano and the team at Proyecto Singular draws inspiration from Seville’s distinctive light, natural materials and cultural heritage, establishing a dialogue between La Gavidia’s architectural legacy and the contemporary character of Thompson Hotels. A palette of ochre, copper, earth and carmine tones is layered with natural materials, handcrafted details, latticework and native vegetation, while changing light and shadow shape the hotel’s patios, public spaces, guestrooms and terraces.

Thompson Seville offers:

• 101 guestrooms and suites designed as residential-style retreats
• more than 2,500 square feet (240 square meters) of flexible meeting and event space across four rooms, complemented by an interior courtyard and integrated audiovisual technology
• a signature restaurant – Caso Mayo – organized around a central bar, wine cellar, open kitchen, light-filled courtyard and dining room
• a lobby bar
• a rooftop bar and pool
• a rooftop fitness center integrated into the hotel’s outdoor spaces
• a collection of art curated by Luisa Olazábal’s studio, that spans the restaurant, lobby, reception, corridors and guestrooms, and featues works by contemporary artists including Jorge Parra, José Cháfer, Kepa Garraza, Agustín Esteso, Laura Alandes, Nanda Hagenaars, Daniel Esteban, Macarena Gross, Miguel Gómez Losada, María Morenés and Marta Bermejo.
