We spent 3 nights and 2 days in Sevilla. You should definitely consider staying in Triana- while it looks away from the city center, it’s literally just a 5min walk away from the bridge that connects to all the action. Maria was very responsive on the Airbnb app/What’sApp. She gave us a great low-down when she met us- a sense of the lay of the land & recommended places.
The two bedroom, 1.5 baths with full kitchen and living space is very homey with nice decorative touches and very comfortable beds, and everything you might need. Note that it’s a walkup apartment on the 2nd floor- so if mobility is an issue this would not be a good fit for you. The second bedroom can be set up either as two twin beds or together. When there’s a heat wave, there is only so much an AC can do- so bring lite PJs or opt to sleep without. Maria lent us an additional fan which helped a lot! On the plus side, all your laundry will dry super-super-fast! There is a large supermarket two blocks away which was a great supplement to our meals. Definitely buy online tickets before you go to the Alcazar and Cathedral (I’m not sure the combi ticket is actually cheaper than buying them separately honestly, so check before you purchase). Go up to the Giralda (bell tower) if you are able- again beware mobility issues (35 small ramps involved). We recommend the hour-long flamenco show at La Casa de Flamenco (also can buy tickets online)- no drink or food- just talented performers in an intimate beautiful setting. We even took dance classes close to the apartment in Triana if you’d like to give it a go (@Academia de baile flamenco Yessica Brea). The apartment is nicely located close to the action, without being in the fray- the evening paseo walking alongside the river crossing both bridges and back is lovely. Thank you Maria for all your responsiveness and care during our visit. Best to you and your family.
