When we think of the Murillo, one word comes to mind: professionalism. This establishment prides itself on service and cleanliness. If you can navigate the alleyways with your luggage, you will have no hitches here.
This former—and famous—Flamenco tablao and hotel has gone through many renovations since it opened its doors in the 1960s. Its most recent makeover features knights' armor and a replica of the opulent king's chair in the main lobby. (The original can be found in the Alcázar.) There's also a charming rooftop bar.
In the rooms, white marble floors meet flirty, freshly painted pink walls, wrought-iron bed frames, and starched linens. Bathrooms have extendable shaving mirrors. Here's a hint: room No. 501 has great views of the Cathedral.
If you have the extra cash, spring for the split-level Junior Suite. You'll pay between €87 and €175 per night for the luxury of sloping beamed ceilings, plasma TV, and regal fabrics.
The apartments, which are rated higher with three "keys," are more generous. All 14 are outfitted with high ceilings, a mini-fridge, granite countertops, a modern vitroceramic stove, a microwave, drawers stocked with utensils, and an eating space. Our favorite detail was the heavy Mudéjar wooden doors.
The breakfast here isn't very ample. You would do better to grab something down the street.
