Palace Real Madrid

On the riverside in Seville

In the Alcazar Palace

Fantastic hotel in Seville - Hotel Casas de la Judeira, labyrinthine, luxurious

Managed to get a last minute booking to fill the three dog nights - Isla la Christina on the Portuguese border - great spot next to the beach.  Tripped around the town, took a boat over the water for an afternoon in Portugal.
