Old town
In the city centre
A mediaeval maze. Old Town is a tangled labyrinth of snaking passageways that hum with local bars. Grab a “caña” (small beer) at El Salvador Square, then dive into Seville’s illustrious history. The colossal cathedral and indulgent Alcázar Palace speak of competing legacies, as successive dynasties vied to put their architectural stamp on the city.

Macarena
1.3 miles from city centre
Tip-top for tapas. This residential district is awash with excellent eateries. Start off with an up-market appetiser at Bar Yebra, then wander across to La Pastora, which is famed for its fried fish. Work off the calories with a wander to La Macarena Basilica, and join devout locals as they murmur Hail Marys to the weeping Macarena Virgin.

Nervión
1 miles from city centre
New-fangled Nervión. This area’s been in a state of constant renovation for years. Its wide avenues are lined with office blocks, where sharp-suited businesspeople stride in and out. The mood changes on match days. Sevilla FC’s famously ebullient supporters fill the Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium with deafening cheers and jeers. Footy fans can’t miss it.
Places to stay from £17 per night
Triana
0.6 miles from city centre
Olé! Triana fizzes with folklore. It’s here that flamenco music took off, and no trip to Seville is complete without a visit to Calle Betis’ authentic “tablaos” (flamenco bars). To dig into Triana’s chequered past, go to Castillo San Jorge. Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition’s old HQ to have transformed into a museum about its dastardly deeds.

Los Remedios
0.9 miles from city centre
Roll up, roll up! Once a year, all eyes turn to Los Remedios, when Seville’s legendary April Fair rolls into town. Impatient locals have spent a whole year waiting for this moment. It’s a whirl of colour, as people meet, greet and eat in true Sevillano style. Dig out that frilly dress and dust down your castanets – it’s party time!
Places to stay from £26 per night
In Seville, not only is the weather hot and sunny for most of the year, but the city is bursting with colour. Think ripe oranges dangling from green trees, golden sandstone buildings adorned in blue and white tiles, and glasses of red wine served with Manchego cheese.
Known as ‘Sevilla’ in Spanish, this historic city is best explored on foot. Soak up the laid-back vibes along the banks of River Guadalquivir, or stroll along the footpaths of María Lucía Park to Plaza de España Square. Located on the park’s edge, this magnificent square flaunts a variety of architectural styles, and four bridges that represent each of Spain’s ancient kingdoms. You can hire a rowing boat and slowly make your way along the curved moat that runs beneath them.
The Andalusian capital is also home to Spain’s largest cathedral. Be sure to get a good look at the Gothic-style exterior before entering to see the tomb of none other than Christopher Columbus. And you can find peace in the neighbouring Alcázar of Seville – a grand and iconic example of Mudéjar architecture, with its beautiful mosaic-tiled interior and sumptuous gardens known for their cascading fountains.
Seville hums with energy at night, from crowded tapas bars to nightly performances at the Flamenco Museum – a gorgeous 18th-century building built on the foundations of an old Roman temple.

26 April 2024
Great city to visit and lots to see and the food and drink scene is amazing, never seen so bars, restaurants more than Madrid. Very walkable for getting around ideal city break visit just limited with direct flights from UK although we went to Faro and got bus from airport straight into city centre with only two stops.
Seville had so many sites within walking distance, amazing...

Seville had so many sites within walking distance, amazing restaurants. The city was clean and friendly to tourists. We recommend booking the key sites such as the cathedral and Álcazar in advance. We took a boat ride, rented bikes and went to many of the museums.
Seville is a great city for weekend break.
25 April 2024
Seville is a great city for weekend break. The hotel was central so we could walk everywhere. Lots of restaurants to choose from. I would definitely recommend it. We will be going back, just to see a couple of things we missed.

Loved Sevilla.
23 April 2024
Loved Sevilla. Great vibes and spoiled for choice for restaurants and tapas bars for all levels of budgets. Shopping areas had everything you could need, from designer labels to quirky and quaint stores and artisan food shops. Obviously all the tourist and historic sites are a must if a first time visitor, need time I would focus more on exploring other areas and enjoying more tapas bars. 3-5 nights stay would be enough to do most things, or a few more nights if you go about your way in a slower pace.
