The Andalusian hotel group Kaizen Hoteles has shone at the World Travel Awards, known as the “Oscars” of tourism, held in Berlin, where the 5 Star Grand Luxury Casa Palacio Don Ramón has emerged as the best boutique hotel in Europe, beating a total of nine finalists.  The awards ceremony was attended by the director of Casa Palacio Don Ramón, Saray Castaño, the president of Kaizen Hotels, Marisa de Ázcárate and the director of Group Operations Almudena Moreno and director of Casa Palacio María Luisa.  Saray Castaño was especially proud that Seville has been recognised as ‘the elite, amongst the most exclusive tourism. This award is confirmation that our hotels in Andalusia are world-leading”.
Receiving a World Travel Award means being at the top of the travel industry and specifically the hospitality industry. These awards were created in 1993 to recognise, reward and celebrate excellence in all key sectors of the travel, tourism and hospitality industries. Today they are recognised worldwide as the industry’s ultimate seal of excellence.
Each year, the World Travel Awards cover the globe with their Grand Tour: a series of regional gala ceremonies to recognise excellence within each continent attended by key decision-makers, leading figures, influencers and industry media. At the end of the year, the winners from each continent face off in a Grand Final.
Casa Palacio Don RamónHotel Casa Palacio Don Ramón 5* Gran Lujo has become a benchmark for the most exclusive tourism in the Andalusian capital.Opened in 2023, this is the luxury hotel chain’s first property in Seville with the aim of offering a higher degree of hospitality and excellence in the city. Located in the heart of the city centre and occupying one of the most emblematic buildings in the city – the former Casa Palacio on Calle Trajano, 2 – Don Ramón is presented as the most exclusive hotel experience that can be enjoyed in Seville. A building with a rich historical and artistic heritage, whose restoration and renovation has opted for the incorporation of the most cutting-edge and sustainable technology, including thermal and acoustic insulation, anti-humidity systems, silent air conditioning, aerothermal and geothermal energy, closed water circuits, aromatisation, multi-layered Climalit glass, and a radiant under floor heating system.
Divided across three floors and with a layout that resembles that of an Andalusian manor house, the hotel has two interior patios with rooftop terrace and swimming pool. The 26 rooms and the common areas of Casa Palacio Don Ramón, including the outdoor swimming pool, the rooftop with spectacular views, the gym, the meeting room and the El Limón restaurant, are unique spaces, with a refined atmosphere.ADVERTISEMENTThe project, designed by the studio of interior designer Alejandra Pombo, is a journey through the different cultures that have inhabited the city over the years, from Al-Andalus to the Seville of the New World. An essence that takes shape through exquisite details and materials made by local artisans, such as wallpapers, upholstered furniture, tiles, grilles and the coquettish balconies present in some of the rooms.
The rooms are divided into three categories: Arab, Mozarabic and New World, according to the prevailing decorative style, and to these we must add the Seville and Don Ramon suites, both on the top floor.
Each of them is presented as a unique space – no two rooms are alike in the entire hotel – and where these three styles are perfectly combined with contemporary materials and inspirations.Along the same lines, the hotel becomes a museum through a tour of exclusive canvases and works of art from the collection of Marisa C. de Azcárate – owner of Kaizen Hoteles – and from the hotel’s own heritage.
To complete the experience, Casa Palacio has its own restaurant focusing on local produce.

Grand Hyatt La Manga Club Golf & Spa has been named ‘Spain’s Leading Sports Resort 2024’  at the World Travel Awards 2024 for the fourth time – a recognition of the hotel’s world-class sporting facilities that are enjoyed by hotel guests, locals and elite sports teams. The five-star hotel, owned by Grupo Inversor Hesperia, opened its doors in May last year, becoming the first Grand Hyatt in Spain following an ambitious renovation project. It is located at the heart of the La Manga Club resort, in an idyllic enclave off the Mediterranean coast, and is surrounded by the stunning Calblanque Natural Park with views of Mar Menor, a tranquil coastal lagoon.
The award was presented at the gala ceremony for the 31st edition of the World Travel Awards in Berlin on Wednesday 6th March. Ángel Holgado, general manager at Grand Hyatt La Manga Club Golf & Spa commented: “Receiving recognition of this magnitude in the most prestigious international awards in the sector, and for it to be in our first year since reopening as a Grand Hyatt, is a huge honour. It drives us to continue improving and delivering the finest sport and leisure experiences to all our guests”.Since its creation in 1972 by Gregory Peters, La Manga Club and sport have always gone hand in hand. Most commonly known for its world-leading golf facilities, the resort is home to three of the best golf courses in Europe: the North Course, South Course and West Field. Today, Grand Hyatt La Manga Club Golf & Spa also offers golf academies for adults and children at all levels, a large practice area and other exclusive services such as the Clubhouse, the 37 Spikes & Sports Bar, Caddy Master and a renovated pro shop.
The hotel also has world-class facilities for a range of other popular sports, including football with eight FIFA-sized football fields and a stadium for 700 supporters, a total of 28 courts across a variety of surfaces at The Racquets Centre, as well as seven padel courts, a pickleball court and a high-performance gym.
The resort has also hosted a number of prestigious sporting events since opening over five decades ago, notably the Davis Cup, the Fed Cup, the Spanish Open and the ATP. Golf legends such as Severiano Ballesteros, Arnold Palmer and Gary Player, and tennis stars, Arancha Sánchez Vicario, Andy Murray and Juan Carlos Ferrero, all play at its venues. The world’s biggest football teams have also trained at La Manga Club through the years, including Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Ajax, Liverpool FC, Galatasaray SK and Newcastle United as well as the national teams of both Spain and England.
Lastly, the golf courses at La Manga Club have also played a part in a number of Guinness World Record achievements. In June 1985, Otto Bucher, who was 99 years old at the time, putted a hole-in-one from the 12th tee of the South Course (Par 3), which to this day still stands as the record for a hole in one by the oldest person. In November 1995, two English players hit the longest shot at 310 metres on Hole 3 of the South Course.ADVERTISEMENTSource: https://premierconstructionnews.com/
