Description
A complex to the likings of Andalusian country residencies. Originally the Convento de los Jerónimos built in the 16th century and used until 1850, the hotel still conserves the chapel honoring the Virgen of Belén with its period frescos. Sited on a large estate of 3,000 hectors, the house has passed through several hands before the Marquees of Casa Oriol bought the property several decades ago. The decoration and noble rigor is the work of Isabel León, Marchioness of Merits. The spacious bedrooms are clad in antique furniture of a classic style, and are touched off with bullfighting and hunting motifs that give them their country flare. All rooms, distinct in shape and size, are located in the house’s most modern wing. They each respond to the name of a Sevillian town. The possibilities of enjoyment are many: in the downstairs living room with its very complete collection of bullfighting paintings, sculptures and literature; in the patios amid lush vegetation and humming fountains… Or with the diverse activities programmed by the hotel, from equitation to deer and wild boar hunting, all-terrain vehicle driving or running with baby bulls in the corral for the most daring.

Our Critic review
THE WORST:
It is easy to happen upon a wedding, bullfighting with cape, convention or any other kind of event being held at the hotel. Which isn’t so bad thanks to the friendly service that abounds here.
ROOMS WE RECOMMEND:
Those that have a fireplace and look over the gardens behind the house, which are carpeted with grass and palm trees. Among them, the so-called Carmona stands out for its desk set before a balcony. Rooms are not without their wrought iron balconies, regal headboards, ornate armoires from Bargas and walnut desks. Country exquisites.
ROOMS WITH VIEWS:
It is easy to happen upon a wedding, bullfighting with cape, convention or any other kind of event being held at the hotel. Which isn’t so bad thanks to the friendly service that abounds here.
EATING:
Río Grande (Betis, w/o number. Sevilla. Tel. 954 27 39 56. Menu: between 12 and 21 euros). On the edge of the Guadalquivir River, facing the Torre del Oro. Soupy rice dishes, bull´s tail and fried foods.
SURROUNDINGS:
By foot: Ruins of a wall forming part of a great building which may have been a thermal bath and of silos, a bridge over the Guadiamara River, one of the aquifers in the Doñana Park and aqueduct. By car: Aznalcóllar, an important mining center, now famous for its ecological disaster, ruins of an Islamic fortification and some temples. Seville (23 km).
ACTIVITIES:
Guided tours of the farm on Tuesday and Thursday; horseback riding on the estate and a beginners riding class; mountain bike trails; courses on driving 4x4 and all-terrain vehicles, paint-bar, archery and target shooting.
