Reviews of the prestigious hotels of Seville. Hotels in Seville come in all shapes and sizes. There are plenty of rooms all over the centre. High season is March and April. During Semana Santa and the April Feria you should book even for inexpensive hostals, preferably a year in advance.
Seville is rich in culture and heritage and a stay which coincides with a festival is highly recommended. There is something for everyone here in the Andalusian capital, from small modest hotels to the luxurious and lavish. Last minute hotel deals are available all year around.
For inexpensive hostals, the Barrio de Santa Cruz is surprisingly the best place to look. Even in July and August, you'll be able to find a place on the quiet side streets off Mateos Gago, such as the Pension Fabiola, Hostal Cordoba and Hostal El Ben Dormir. There are many more and it's best to explore on foot and see for yourself. The largest selection of all, however, is along Calle San Eloy, just east of the now defunct Cordoba station.
