Hotel Posada de Palacio

Sanlúcar de Barrameda


Plant-filled patios, soaring ceilings, historical charm and old-world luxury add up to an elegantly characterful package in this thoughtfully converted 18th-century house-palace. Each room is different – tiled floors, red-brick arches, loft-like set-ups – but the superior doubles are standouts. There’s antique furniture, but it's never overdone.

The excellent courtyard restaurant El Espejo specialises in wine-pairing menus and creative contemporary cooking infused with locally sourced ingredients; opening hours vary seasonally.
