Hotel Unuk

Ortiz de Zúñiga 8, Seville.

It is located south of Plaza Encarnacion, next to the Metropol Parasol, better known as Las Setas, in a commercial area called Soho Benita, where there are indie stores, galleries and restaurants. This establishment was born from the union of a traditional Sevillian house and an industrial-style one, which openly embraces modernity in the luxurious design that adorns its interiors and its select style. In view of what the Hotel Unuk offers, 115 € per person per night seems like a very competitive price, especially if we think of other added values such as the terrace with its saltwater pool and the Recoveco restaurant, which pays homage to traditional Andalusian food, are the services most highlighted by customers.
