Lacks character compared to other more central properties
Part of Spain's Hoteles Center chain, the 233-room Sevilla Center Hotel is best known for the exquisite views from its rooftop restaurant and higher floor rooms. The Seville city center is located about 25-minutes on foot from the hotel, but the hotel does offer a big outdoor pool with spacious lounge areas and on-site fitness center with whirlpool. Seville's city center is easily accessible with nearby public transportation and the location of this hotel is convenient for the airport, but the hotel lacks character compared to more central, historic properties.
Scene
Big hotel lacking local charm
The Sevilla Center Hotel is a tower on the outskirts of the city center offering spectacular views from its 13th-floor restaurant -- especially at sunset. This setting creates a romantic atmosphere, though the decor and architecture of the hotel is unremarkable. The lobby is bright and airy with a welcoming bar area and checkered black and white marble floors. Decor throughout is elegant, and though not centrally located, this hotel does offer a relaxed place to stay while exploring greater Seville.
Location
Outside the city center, near all public transportation
The Sevilla Center Hotel is located in Nervion, one of Seville's key commercial districts. The Seville city center and most points of interest range from 15-minutes to 25-minutes on foot away from the hotel. The location is convenient for the buses, tram, and metro, as well as high speed rail, which make the trip downtown a 10-minute journey. There is a grocery store conveniently located across the street and the Buhaira Gardens are close by. Seville's bull ring is a mile away.
Rooms
Quiet rooms with great views on higher floors
Rooms at the Sevilla Center Hotel have convenient reading and work areas. Rooms are quiet -- even more so if you ask for a room away from the elevator shaft (which can be heard through the walls). Decor is understated and elegant, with red and gold Spanish accents and rich woods. The superior club center rooms are a step above the rest, with private terraces and gorgeous bathrooms with high end toiletries. The Presidential Suite has a fantastic multi-head shower, a whirlpool that can fit four, and a private sauna.
Features
Fine dining restaurant with stellar views and outdoor pool
The best feature of the Sevilla Center Hotel is the 13th-floor Al-Zagal restaurant -- which serves Mediterranean market cuisine -- with its extraordinary city views, especially at sunset. The third floor swimming pool and wooden sun deck (open seasonally) have a snack bar and grill for al fresco dining. The hotel gym is small, but there is a sauna and whirlpool for guest use. The El Jardin lobby bar is a pleasant place for a drink.
