Holiday information

 

A New Year break in Seville

On this festive short break, you explore one of Spain’s most beguiling and enigmatic cities: Seville. This is iconic Spain… A land of vibrant and exuberant people, home to flamenco, tapas and bullfighting. The city preserves the most important legacies of that great flowering of Islamic culture which took place between the 9th and 15th centuries. It is expressed in great monumental architecture – not least that of the Alcázar – and also in quieter courtyards and scented gardens.
Our detailed notes guide you through the historic streets on a walking tour that includes all the famous heritage sites, as well as many overlooked corners and delightful lunch stops. To make your break that little bit more special, we include an olive-oil tasting, tickets to a flamenco show and, of course, a celebratory dinner on New Year’s Eve. You stay in a stylish hotel – a beautifully restored mansion – representing the essence of the city, and within walking distance of the major sights.

  • Discover Seville on our self-guided city walking tours
    We provide detailed route notes which lead you to Seville's many hidden corners as well as the famous heritage sites such as the Moorish fortress of the Alcázar, with its impressive ceilings, courtyards and beautiful gardens; the striking cathedral; the ornate Plaza de España; and the atmospheric Barrio Santa Cruz, the old Jewish quarter, where orange trees – laden with fruit in December – grow in the courtyards of the whitewashed houses lining the picturesque cobbled streets. The covered passageway heading off the Patio de Banderas called the Judería is worth visiting; enter the Patio from here and you’ll get an unforgettable view of the cathedral. Throughout the city you will find a traditional tapas bar seemingly on every street where the local fare is washed down with ice cold fino sherry.
  • A flamenco show & olive-oil tasting
    During your stay, we also include an olive-oil tasting session and entry into a thrilling flamenco show to complete your experience of Seville, a city that knows how to celebrate!
  • Celebrate with a special dinner
    The focal point of your break is, of course, New Year’s Eve, when you are treated to a fine gastronomic dinner comprising several mouth-watering courses. Afterwards, retire to the comfortable lounges for a festive nightcap, or head out into the night to join in the New Year revelry with the locals!

    Seville is a beautiful city and a wonderful location for a New Year break .We also celebrated a special anniversary in bright sunshine which was a first for us.The many tapas bars and restaurants seemed well priced and of excellent quality.The Christmas lights near the city hall were delightful and it was very enjoyable to wander the streets in the evenings.

    Seville was an amazing place to visit for New Year and Christmas with every side street being decorated, children playing in the playgrounds late into the evening and impromptu shows from street artists and displays. With warm weather on sunlit streets as a reminder of summer to come, then wrapping up warm for the shaded streets, and evenings there were loads of tapa bars waiting draw you in for a glass or two and a delicious plate of food. The buildings both modern and ancient architecture were a pleasure to see and everyone was extremely welcoming. If you get tired, electronic scooters are everywhere and easy to rent, or horse drawn carriages as well as bikes or hop on and off buses. The Gardens that are scattered throughout are well worth a detour as each has a different feel again with beautiful architecture surrounding. A place to be encouraged to get lost in just to see that display, coffee shop, homemade sweet shop or music jump around the corner.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Seville. The only place that was not mentioned in your notes was the Plaza di España which we found beautiful. This was mentioned to us by the hotel staff and we feel it could well be included in your notes for the future.

    The hotel is in an excellent position for exploring the city and the many little squares and cafes on the way to the Cathedral/Town Hall are used extensively by the locals so provide a lovely friendly atmosphere. 
 

FAQs

If you have any questions relating to this or any other Inntravel holiday, our friendly travel experts will be happy to help. You might also find our General FAQs section helpful.
  • We sincerely hope that your holiday experience will be as enjoyable as it would have been before the pandemic – walking holidays are ideal in these times of social distancing, and we’re not operating holidays if the key highlights can no longer be delivered – but, naturally, there will be some changes to ensure your and other people’s safety.

    Safety measures being taken by hoteliers & others >
  • The information that we send to you 2-3 weeks before your holiday includes practical information about each stage of your journey so that you can travel confidently from one hotel to another, recommendations for places to visit and eat out in each place, plus cultural information about the area. Where applicable, we also provide notes for a self-guided walking tour of most cities, and some large towns. Sample travel pack >
  • We can book a wide range of airlines and routes from the UK. As well as being more convenient for you to book all elements of your holiday together, it also means that we’ll accept liability for your travel arrangements, so if things go wrong, such as the airline going bust, we’ll make suitable alternative arrangements for you. For Europe and Morocco, there’s a £35 booking fee per person (£15 for children aged 2-11). For India and Nepal, the booking fee is £60 per person. More information on flights >
  • We can’t book flights that originate outside the UK, but if you wanted to book your own flights to London (or elsewhere in the UK), we can make all onward travel arrangements (including flights) from there. Alternatively, if you are booking your own flights to an airport in continental Europe that’s appropriate for your holiday, we can book onward rail travel and/or taxis. More information about how we can tailor holidays for customers outside the UK >
  • Once you’ve decided on your exact itinerary (our travel experts will be happy to offer advice), you need to provide us with your party’s details, either by phone or via our booking form. At this point we also ask you to pay a deposit so that we can secure a room for you immediately on confirming availability with the hotel(s). If it turns out that we can’t secure the accommodation for the holiday you’ve requested, or offer an acceptable alternative, we’ll refund your deposit promptly and in full. After booking your accommodation and other key elements, we'll then book your travel (or you can do so if you’re making your own arrangements) and send you a Booking Confirmation and Invoice.

  • Yes, it’s something we insist on, even for holidays in the UK. The vast majority of holidays go smoothly, but when things go wrong, it can be expensive to put them right. Buying a new pair of walking boots after your suitcase is stolen mightn’t seem so bad, but the bill for being airlifted down from a mountain with a broken leg or flown home while still recovering from an illness or accident can cost tens of thousands of pounds.

    You don’t have to take out our recommended travel insurance policy (if you live outside Europe you’ll definitely need to make your own arrangements, as the policy is only for residents of the UK and Europe, but not Switzerland), but you do need to make sure that you’re covered for medical emergencies – including falling ill with Covid-19 while on holiday – and repatriation. We also recommend that you are covered for other eventualities, such as cancellation and loss of luggage and passports.

    We'll ask you for the details of your policy (insurer, policy number and medical emergency phone number) so that we can help out if the worst happens while you are on holiday. It's up to you, though, to check that your policy covers the activities you'll be doing on holiday and that it is adequate for your own individual needs; we don't check alternative policies.
  • It is your responsibility to ensure you are in possession of the correct travel documents, with the correct validity. If you’re a UK citizen, you need a full British passport to travel to Spain, but not a visa. If you are a citizen of another country, you’ll need to check requirements with the national embassy or your own consulate.

    Current information regarding vaccinations and travel health advice for UK citizens can be found through the Travel Health Pro website. You must make sure you have adequate insurance cover for illness, accidents and repatriation (see the insurance question). UK citizens should also obtain a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) by applying at a Post Office or at www.ehic.org.uk. The EHIC allows reciprocal health care but should not be seen as a substitute for travel insurance.
  • (Castilian) Spanish is one of several official languages; in Catalonia, for example, Catalan has equal status. The currency is the Euro. Spanish time is GMT/UTC + 1. It uses Daylight Saving Time, so in summer is on BST + 1.
  • At Inntravel we work in close partnership with our hoteliers, taxi drivers and other local suppliers to provide our self-guided holidays directly to you. We are entirely confident that you will continue to receive the usual warm welcome from them, regardless of what is happening in the European political sphere.

    When the UK withdrew from the European Union (EU) on 31 January 2020, it entered an 11-month transition period that will last until the end of December 2020. During this transition period there will be absolutely no changes to current arrangements for UK citizens travelling to an EU destination, so you can book your 2020 holiday certain that there will be no disruptions or complications caused by Brexit.
  • The UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) provides up-to-date, country-by-country travel advice, as well as information on security, local laws, passports and visas for UK citizens.
    If you live outside the UK, see our essential travel information page for a list of relevant websites.
  • You are the best judge of your child’s/children’s capabilities. We are happy to take bookings for families of older children/teenagers if they walk regularly, love the outdoors and are comfortable with the distances and ascent/descent involved. Please note that the bedrooms at most of the accommodation we use will normally only sleep a maximum of 3 people, and sometimes only 2.
