Key Notes

  • Thompson Seville has opened with 101 rooms and suites in La Gavidia on Plaza de la Concordia.
  • The hotel is the Thompson brand’s first in Andalusia and second in Spain, following Thompson Madrid.
  • Features include a rooftop pool, Casa Mayo restaurant, selected private terraces and 240 square meters of event space.

Hyatt has opened the 101-room Thompson Seville in La Gavidia, giving a Modernist landmark on Plaza de la Concordia a new role as a hotel. The property adds a rooftop pool, courtyard dining and terrace suites to the historic center of Seville.

The opening, announced on November 9, is the Thompson Hotels brand’s first in Andalusia and second in Spain, following Thompson Madrid. Its appeal combines a central city address with spaces designed for time at the hotel, from the rooftop to Casa Mayo restaurant.

A Modernist Address Reimagined

The conversion retains La Gavidia’s architectural character. Interiors by Jorge Lozano and Proyecto Singular introduce ochre, copper and carmine tones, handcrafted details and latticework. Contemporary art, curated by Luisa Olazábal’s studio, extends through the public areas and accommodation.

The contrast between the building and its new interiors is visible in the hotel’s photographs: warm wood and cream walls in the rooms, patterned floors, planted outdoor spaces and dining areas shaped around courtyards. The rooftop gives the property another open-air setting above the surrounding streets.

Rooms, Suites and Private Terraces

The hotel’s room categories include city-view and deluxe rooms, family accommodation and several suite types. Selected rooms and suites have private terraces, including options with views over the historic skyline. A terrace is a feature to confirm in the individual category when comparing stays.

The gallery includes a room opening onto a furnished terrace and a separate junior-suite view. Both show the hotel’s warm palette, with wood finishes, soft green seating and generous windows. Travelers choosing between categories can compare the view, outdoor space and sleeping arrangements as well as the room name.

Casa Mayo Brings Andalusian Dining

Casa Mayo is developed with Grupo Manolo Mayo, the family-run restaurant business with more than six decades of experience. Its cooking centers on seasonal ingredients and Andalusian traditions, giving the hotel’s food offering a connection to the region.

Dining extends across a main room, a glazed patio and an outdoor terrace. The different spaces allow a meal to become part of the hotel experience, whether guests want a table indoors or time in the courtyard. The restaurant welcomes local diners as well as hotel guests.

A Rooftop for Pool Time and Evenings

The rooftop brings together the pool, bar and fitness center. It offers guests an outdoor retreat between trips into the city, while the bar provides a place to gather later in the day.

Hyatt’s opening photographs show the pool bordered by loungers and broad fabric parasols, with trees and surrounding rooftops beyond. The setting gives the hotel a different perspective from its street-level restaurant and courtyards.

For City Breaks and Small Events

Alongside leisure facilities, the hotel has 240 square meters of event space across four rooms. Art, music and food programming is also planned, although the announcement does not provide a complete public events calendar.

Thompson Seville is at Plaza de la Concordia, 41002 Seville. For a stay built around exploring the historic center, its combination of rooms, dining and rooftop space offers a new option to compare. Check the current room description, rate inclusions and reservation terms before booking, particularly when a private terrace or a specific view is part of the appeal.
