San José 1 by Home at Homes

CASA PALACIO SAN JOSÉ I — The Count's House



A journey through Seville's Baroque splendour



Home at Homes invites you to experience something absolutely unique: living in a seventeenth-century palace house, masterfully restored by Rafael Manzano, one of the great classical architects of our time and responsible for iconic projects such as the Reales Alcázares complex or the Hotel Alfonso XIII.



Located in the heart of the historic centre—5 minutes from the Cathedral and the Giralda—, the property spans over 1,000 m² and combines heritage, craftsmanship and contemporary comfort. The entrance on San José Street 7, with its imposing wooden doors and original ironwork, anticipates the monumental character of the interior.



The building: living history



A large porticoed courtyard with Roman marble columns, fountains, porticoed rooms, galleries and exuberant terraces create a unique setting. Inside, a genuine display of craftsmanship: coffered ceilings, fine carpentry, classical tilework, Baroque mouldings and an exceptional collection of furniture and antiques selected by the owners.



Access to the apartment is via an elegant vestibule leading to the main courtyard and the imposing staircase (or lift) ascending to the principal floor.



The Apartment (330 m²)



The entire first floor of the palace houses Casa Palacio San José I, also called The Count's House: a sumptuous three-bedroom apartment that retains its original layout and Baroque essence.



Social areas



• First living room with games table, piano, reading area and TV

• Spectacular dining room with Bohemian crystal chandelier and table for 12–22 guests

• Large library-lounge, the jewel of the apartment, with three windows overlooking the street and natural light throughout the day: the finest vantage point imaginable for viewing Holy Week



Kitchen and private area



On the left wing you will find the spacious fully equipped kitchen and rest area:



✔ Bedroom 1: two 90×200 cm beds, en suite bathroom

✔ Bedroom 2: 150×200 cm bed, dressing room and en suite bathroom

✔ Bedroom 3: access from the dining room or from bedroom 2; two 90×200 cm beds, dressing room and en suite bathroom. Ideal for families with children



The bathrooms feature traditional fixtures, classic tilework and artisanal details.



The Palace Terraces



On the third floor await the communal terraces: an elevated garden in the heart of the city, perfect for breakfast in the open air, relaxing in the evening or sunbathing in the solarium with rainfall shower. From here you can enjoy spectacular views of the Santa Cruz neighbourhood and its bell towers.



On this floor you will also find the communal laundry room, with washing machine, tumble dryer and individual clotheslines for each apartment.



The Experience



Staying at Casa Palacio San José is experiencing the most authentic Seville:

• A stone's throw from the Cathedral, the Royal Alcázars, the Murillo Gardens and the Santa Cruz neighbourhood

• Surrounded by local shops, restaurants, terraces and culture

• A perfect location to discover the city on foot



The Palace Complex



The building houses five independent apartments —San José I, II, III, IV and V—, with total capacity for 22 guests and over 500 m² of communal areas.

Ideal for large families, intimate celebrations or travel groups seeking privacy and exclusivity.



The building has security cameras in the communal areas, intended for the security of the facilities. There are no cameras inside the apartments.
