Seville is set to join the Four Seasons map in 2028, as the luxury group teams up with Spanish investor Blasson to convert a landmark building on Plaza Nueva into an intimate 55-room hotel, its third address in Spain.
Four Seasons has confirmed its arrival in Seville, partnering with Spanish real estate investment firm Blasson on a 55-room hotel that will open on Plaza Nueva in 2028. The move extends the operator’s Spanish footprint beyond Madrid and Mallorca and plants its flag in the Andalucían capital, one of the country’s most-visited cultural cities.
The property, to be known as Four Seasons Hotel Sevilla, will occupy a landmark building in the city’s Arenal Quarter, in the heart of Seville. Its central position places guests within walking distance of the city’s headline attractions, including the UNESCO World Heritage trio of the Cathedral, Royal Alcázar and Archivo de Indias, alongside Seville’s celebrated dining and cultural scene.
Unlike the sprawling resorts that dominate much of Spain’s luxury market, the Seville hotel will be a deliberately small affair. The mid-20th-century, five-storey building will undergo a full revitalisation before reopening with skyline views, open-air terraces and completely reimagined guestrooms.
Accommodation will range from 40 to 117 square metres (430 to 1,260 square feet), topped by an expansive Presidential Suite. Madrid-based architecture practice Lamela is leading the structural work, with interiors entrusted to AD100 honouree Belén Domecq, a pairing that signals a distinctly Spanish design sensibility for the project.
Three food and beverage outlets are planned: a street-level restaurant opening directly onto Plaza Nueva, a rooftop restaurant and bar with panoramic city views, and a ground-floor lounge and gathering space pitched at guests and locals alike. A spa, fitness centre and rooftop swimming pool overlooking the historic skyline round out the amenities, the kind of wellness and rooftop provision that increasingly tips a corporate traveller’s choice of base.
For Four Seasons, Seville is the latest step in what the company frames as intentional, destination-led growth rather than scale for its own sake. The arrival builds on its award-winning hotels in Madrid and Mallorca, and lands as the brand pushes a broader wave of openings, from Cartagena to Gstaad, detailed in its recent line-up of global debuts for 2025 and 2026.
It also reflects the continued appetite of international operators for Spain, where new luxury and lifestyle stock keeps arriving across the mainland and islands — as seen in the recent opening of Wyndham Portocolom in Majorca. Readers tracking the group’s UK presence will note its parallel investment at home, where the Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane recently unveiled renovated suites.
The timing is no accident. Seville draws close to five million visitors a year and continues to climb the rankings of European city-break and cultural destinations, blending heritage architecture with a year-round events calendar. Crucially for the business traveller, it is well connected: high-speed rail links put it roughly 2.5 hours from Madrid, while Seville Airport serves a growing roster of European and international routes.
That accessibility, paired with a small-footprint luxury product in a UNESCO-rich city centre, positions Four Seasons Hotel Sevilla as a likely fixture on the premium corporate and bleisure circuit when it opens in 2028.
