Guests staying here will be transported back to Seville's period of greatest splendour, and a taste of the life of the nobility in this regal city.
La Casa de Maese Farfán, as it is familiarly called, is one of five apartments comprising the Casa Palacio San José. It owes its name to Francisco de Paula Farfán, a renowned Sevillian artist, chronicler of the city and talented carpenter, who was born in this very house in 1869 and whose soul, whether by chance or pure serendipity, is today present in the carpentry work carried out by his descendants in the course of the complex restoration works of this stately palace home.
The house is accessed through an impressive front gate located in calle San José 7. A short, open hallway leads to the patio and a covered furnished sitting area, crossing which you can access the house proper through a hall housing a fabulous staircase and lift leading to the apartments and rooftop terraces.
