Seville, the capital of Andalusia in southern Spain, is one of the country's most atmospheric cities, full of grand squares, narrow old streets and warm southern charm. It appeals to UK couples and families who want a sunny city break rich in culture, food and history.

This is a destination for wandering, eating well and soaking up the relaxed Andalusian pace, with reliably warm weather for much of the year.

Where to stay in Seville

The four star NH Collection Sevilla is an upscale hotel located near the grand Plaza de Espana, putting you close to the heart of the city. The four star Catalonia Santa Justa sits near the Santa Justa train station, a handy base with easy connections.

Getting there and when to go

Seville has direct flights from several UK airports, with a short transfer into the city. Spring and autumn are ideal, with warm, comfortable weather for sightseeing, while high summer can be very hot, so an earlier start to the day helps. Even the cooler months stay mild and pleasant.

City and surroundings

Seville is a walkable city of beautiful squares, historic quarters and shaded streets, best explored on foot. Its grand plazas and riverside setting make it a rewarding place simply to stroll, with plenty of character around every corner.

Food and things to do

Andalusian cooking and tapas are a real highlight, enjoyed in lively bars and relaxed squares, often with a glass of local sherry. The city is famous for its flamenco tradition and its festive, sociable atmosphere, with warm evenings made for lingering over dinner.

Who it suits

Seville suits couples and families who want a warm, walkable city break with rich culture, excellent food and a genuine Spanish feel, rather than a beach resort.
