Where can I find a great one week intensive Spanish class in London or Spain?

I'm looking for a one week (7 days?) intensive Spanish class either at home in London or in Spain.

I will be traveling to Seville this September anyway and could stay on there or nearby for a week. I know already about the classes offered by Institute Cervantes in London, and that could be an option in September also.

My objectives are to spend a week getting the foundation down right before continuing on with classes in between my travels. I work on development projects throughout Central and South America. I would prefer to learn standard pronunciation if there is such a thing, so that I can be broadly understood. My objective is to be able to carry on conversations for work, email communication etc, rather than drafting whole proposals in Spanish etc.

I have some basic knowledge already (exposure through traveling and learning some basics, conversation with colleagues, and I used to speak Italian) but think it is probably best to start again properly, in an accelerated way.

Any suggestions for classes appreciated, at home or away!

Be aware of the differences between Latin American and Castilian Spanish when you select a class, as noted here.
