Seville Stays: The Ultimate Guide to Accommodations for Every Budget
One of my favorite things about traveling in Spain is that it can be done no matter what your budget. Unlike other popular destinations, the accommodations in Spain can be found very cheap but also have amazing high end options. The hotels and places to stay below are broken out into four groups, Cheap, Budget, Splurge, and Luxury. As Seville is such an affordable city, the budget and Splurge hotels are closer to the same cost per night compared to other cities.
Cheap Stays: These accommodation recommendations are all about keeping your trip as low cost as possible without sacrificing basic needs. I have stayed in hostels and low cost hotels before and am comfortable with older décor and dated rooms, but don’t sacrifice cleanliness or location.
Budget Stays: These recommendations are budget friendly but are usually nicer and offer more than the Cheap Stays. When I travel these are usually the types of places I stay. As with all of my recommendations, location is paramount but if there is a great hotel away from the action I mention it in the description.
Splurge Stays: For recommendations in this group, it is all about splurging when you can. These options are worth the extra cost if it fits within your budget. If possible, especially for longer trips, sprinkling some splurge options can really make a trip feel special.
Luxury Stays: These recommendations are all about location, views, amenities and rooms. If you are planning a special trip or have a healthy budget, these hotels are my top picks for the city.
A general note on where to stay, if you are comfortable staying in vacation rentals like Airbnb or HomeAway and are traveling in a larger group, they are almost always my recommendation. They allow for common space to spread out, can have amazing views, and are also the most bang for your buck.
