Tayko Sevilla is located in one of the city’s most iconic historic areas: Puerta de Jerez, next to the Torre del Oro, the Alcázar and Seville Cathedral.
The building forms part of the historic surroundings of the former Royal Mint and was designed in 1928 by the Seville-born architect José Gómez Millán, one of the most renowned figures in early 20th-century Andalusian regionalist architecture.

Its construction coincided with one of the periods of greatest urban transformation in Seville, driven by the 1929 Ibero-American Exposition, a pivotal moment in the city’s architectural and monumental expansion.
Regionalist architecture, which is very much in evidence in this part of Seville, is characterised by a reinterpretation of traditional Andalusian styles through elements such as ceramics, exposed brickwork, balconies and ornamental details. The building retains this historical identity and blends seamlessly into the historic landscape of Seville’s city centre.

The renovation carried out to convert the property into a hotel has sought to preserve the building’s original architectural character, whilst incorporating a contemporary, light and elegant design. Its location in Puerta de Jerez also offers an insight into a key part of Seville’s urban history: the connection between the historic centre, the River Guadalquivir and some of the city’s most iconic monuments.
Today, Tayko Sevilla offers a contemporary way of experiencing Seville’s historical heritage, blending architecture, design and the urban setting in one of the city’s most recognisable landmarks.
