PB hotel design editorial

Pressed against the flank of Seville's Gothic cathedral — the largest in the world by area — a cluster of seventeen adjoined historic townhouses in the Barrio Santa Cruz was stitched together and converted into EME Catedral Mercer Hotel, which opened in 2008. The project, undertaken by Barcelona-based Donaire Arquitectos, preserved the whitewashed Andalusian facades with their ornate ironwork miradores and wrought-iron balconies intact, while the rooftop was cut away to reveal one of the most direct sightlines to the Giralda tower available from any hotel in the city. The resulting building carries four floors of guest accommodation across 60 rooms and suites, with the upper-level penthouse rooms gaining private terraces that look directly across limestone coping to the cathedral's illuminated buttresses at dusk. Inside, the interiors navigate a deliberate tension between Moorish decorative tradition and a cooler, more contemporary Iberian minimalism. Guest rooms feature laser-cut plasterwork headboards and patterned ceiling reliefs that echo the geometric arabesque of Mudejar craftsmanship, set against polished concrete floors and restrained dark-stained timber bed frames. The restaurant takes a lighter direction — chevron oak parquet underfoot, sage-green walls with arched wine niches in natural ash, brown leather banquette seating, and pale bentwood dining chairs that suggest a Scandinavian influence filtered through Sevillian warmth. The rooftop terrace, with its small pool framed by glass balustrades and black steel railings, delivers the defining image: the cathedral's Gothic silhouette flooding gold against the evening sky.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at this hotel, mainly because of the wonderful service we got from the front desk, staff and in particular Mario. We have to confess that we didn’t completely appreciate how difficult it would be to get to the hotel and indeed ended up approaching it from the wrong way making for a very stressful journey. Once arrived, Mario helped us with sites to see, dinner reservation, etc. Seville is a wonderful spot. Don’t miss it."

"We had a fantastic stay at EME Catedral Mercer. The location is excellent, right in the heart of Seville and perfect for walking to many of the city’s highlights. There are also plenty of great restaurants, cafés and bars right on the doorstep. It’s a lively, bustling part of the city, so expect a vibrant atmosphere. The hotel itself has a lovely feel to it, stylish, calm and welcoming once you step inside. We stayed in a Cathedral View Room, which was excellent. Opening the balcony doors in the morning and evening to enjoy the view of the cathedral while listening to the sounds of the street below was a real highlight of our stay. The staff were all extremely kind and professional, always happy to help and going out of their way to accommodate any requests we had. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would absolutely return again. Thank you to all of the team for helping make our visit to Seville so memorable."
