Choosing the right part of the city is important – after all, you want to stay in the best location! However, your idea of what’s “best” depends on why you’re visiting. Here’s a rundown of the different neighborhoods to help you plan the best place to stay in Seville – for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n El Arenal is the best choice if you want somewhere central. If you only have a short time to visit the city, all the main tourist attractions<\/a> are nearby. You’re five minutes from Cathedral, steps away from the Bull Ring, and dangerously close to the shopping area of Calle Sierpes. You can’t get much more central than that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can find great tapas<\/a> if you wander off the beaten track, and at night there are amazing rooftop terraces<\/a> and places for cocktails<\/a>. But be warned – being so close to all the action means that, at times, your hotel may be noisy! We are not known for leaving the fiesta<\/em> early in Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our favorite hotels in El Arenal:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n When thinking about where to stay in Seville, it is important to keep the most historic part of the city in mind. Barrio Santa Cruz<\/a> is filled with cobblestone streets, classic Andalusian balconies, and hidden patios. Plus, you\u2019re mere minutes from the Cathedral and Royal Alcazar Palace. If you are looking for a hotel with true Andalusian feel in the heart of the historic center, Santa Cruz is the best location for your stay in Seville!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our favorite hotels in Santa Cruz:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Looking to stay outside the city center, but just a hop, skip and a jump away from it all? Nestled in the southeastern end of the city and right next to Maria Luisa Mark, El Porvenir is the perfect location to take advantage of Seville\u2019s public transportation. In the area you\u2019ll find the city\u2019s second-largest train station, San Bernardo, with connections to nearby cities as well as bus and tram line stops and even a metro station. Get to wherever you\u2019re going in a heartbeat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our favorite hotels in El Porvenir:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you don\u2019t mind a bit of walking and want a true taste of local life in Seville, this northern area of the city is the place for you. The neighboorhood gets its name from the Macarena Virgin<\/a>, housed in a beautiful chapel that sits right next to an ancient city gate and restored portions of the old city walls. A thirty-minute walk or ten-minute taxi ride will get you to the historic center, where you can spend the day sightseeing then return to the barrio at night. Use your evenings to explore Seville\u2019s favorite social scene \u2013 the lively Alameda de Hercules<\/a> with a whole host of restaurants and bars for tapas, cocktails and fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our Favorite Hotels in La Macarena:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Just across the iconic Isabel II bridge, you will find the neighborhood of Triana. The area has a village feel with lots of little shops, local markets, and great tapas bars. This is the best location to stay in Seville if you are looking for an authentic experience and want to make the most of your evenings by exploring the area’s \u00a1family-run tapas bars! From Triana, you can get to the historic center on foot. It\u2019ll take about twenty minutes, but is well worth the walk, which boasts postcard worthy views of Seville\u2019s skyline! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Our favorite hotels in Triana:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This blog post was originally posted on April 14, 2015, and was updated on March 25, 2019.
