1
2Palaces of Seville

4Explore Andalucia
Why not extend your stay to visit the historic cities of Granada, Malaga and Cordoba, or the coastline of Costa de la Luz for long stretches of beach.
Why we like it
Direct flights have now made Seville the ideal city for a short break – ideal, as it is relatively compact whilst priding itself on its strong cultural identity. Think flamenco, sangria, tapas, Moorish architecture and royal palaces; Andalucia in a nutshell. The area is also home to one of our favourite boutique hotels, Hacienda de San Rafael, who know us well and will warmly welcome any Steppes guests. Their sister property is in town, should you wish to be in the thick of it or enjoy cityscapes from the rooftop terrace.

A Sense of Seville
The stylish and scorching city of Seville is the capital of Andalucia. Also known as ‘The Frying Pan of Spain’, it enjoys arguably the strongest cultural identity in the entire country. It is the artistic, historic and cultural capital of southern Spain, and is the closest you are likely to get to Andalucia in a nutshell.
Corral del Rey - In the Heart of Seville
For a true city break choose Corral de Rey and immerse yourself in the city, staying amidst the winding streets of the old quarter. Corral del Rey creates a relaxed and intimate atmosphere with friendly and understated service. It is a stylish and well-located haven from which to explore the city of Seville. The entire city can be viewed from the poolside rooftop.
Visit the Burial Site of Christopher Columbus
Seville Cathedral, the third-largest church in the world and the largest gothic cathedral. Completed in the early 16th Century, it is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and also the burial site of Christopher Columbus.
Beach Stays Around Seville
Travel south of Seville to the Atlantic coastline of Costa de la Luz for long stretches of sandy beach, sparkling surf and pretty white villages, far removed from it’s grown-up neighbour, the Costa del Sol. We are happy to talk through several options and find the right one for you.

When to travel
The best time to visit Seville is from March to May. During these months the temperatures are mild, the rush of tourist traffic hasn’t reached summer volume and the hotels tend to offer lower rates. Experience Orthodox Easter, Semana Santa and Feria de Abril at this time of year. Summers in Seville are best avoided as the temperatures often exceed 35 degrees. September and October are very attractive, however with less daylight. The winter months experience rather high rainfall although still humid, the temperatures are generally still mild.
