In brief
What works, what to weigh

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Finding the hotel can be tricky — The entrance is on a small plaza in the old town, and guests note that it's easy to miss the first time. Driving in Seville is challenging, and the hotel offers no on-site parking, but a nearby 24-hour car park costs about 15 euros a day.
- Rooms are on the small side — Several guests mention that rooms are compact, though they are well designed and comfortable. The Economy Double and standard Double may feel snug for those expecting more space.
- Rooms and cleanliness rating is lower — While most reviews praise cleanliness, the official category score for rooms and cleanliness is 6 out of 10, which may indicate some inconsistency or dated fixtures in certain areas.
- Terrace can lack atmosphere — Although the views are excellent, one guest noted that the terrace bar has 'no atmosphere to keep one on it', so it may not be a place to linger long.

8.5Verified guest“Handy location, clean rooms, and a solid breakfast.”
8.5Verified guest“Right in the very centre.”
8.5Verified guest“Breakfast on the rooftop terrace with cathedral views was magical each morning. Staff were helpful with local tips and made sure we were comfortable.”
8.5Verified guest“The staff were fantastic and the location couldn't be better—just blocks from the cathedral and La Giralda, at the start of Santa Cruz, in the middle of it all. Driving here is a bit tricky (Seville isn't car-friendly), but a taxi from the airport is about 25 euros. The terrace view is great—you can have a drink watching La Giralda lit up at night.”
8.5Verified guest“Hotel Palacio Alcazar is close to everything in Seville—shopping, sights, restaurants, and bars. The hotel is very clean and well kept, and the staff take pride in their work. The room was small, but the shower was big enough for four. It's a hundred metres left of the Alcazar entrance, though finding it the first time is always a challenge. The terrace bar has views of the two main attractions, but lacks atmosphere to keep you there. We didn't have breakfast, so can't judge that. The area feels safe, though female twig sellers can be pushy if you let them. Locals are friendly and helpful.”
8.5Verified guest“Great location for exploring nearby sights.”
