Argote Giralda Deluxe by Valcambre

Hotel Description

You know what caught me off guard about the Argote Giralda Deluxe? The name makes it sound way fancier than it actually is – and I mean that in the best possible way. This isn’t some stuffy place where you feel weird walking through the lobby in your sightseeing clothes. It’s tucked into this narrow street (Calle Argote de Molina, which honestly I had to look up how to pronounce) right in the heart of Seville’s old quarter, and the building itself has that weathered Andalusian charm that you can’t fake.

The location is actually pretty brilliant once you figure out the lay of the land. You’re maybe a three-minute walk from the Cathedral – I timed it because I’m that person – and the Giralda tower literally looms over the neighborhood. But here’s the thing most people don’t realize: being this close to the major sites means you can easily duck back to your room during the brutal afternoon heat (trust me, you’ll want to in summer) and then head out again for evening tapas when the city comes alive. The street itself is narrow enough that it stays relatively cool, though you will hear the occasional late-night reveler echoing off the walls. It comes with the territory in this part of town.

What really sold me on this place was how the staff seemed to actually know Seville beyond the tourist basics. The guy at reception – I think his name was Carlos – didn’t just give me the standard map-and-circle routine. He mentioned that the little plaza near Santa Cruz gets packed with tour groups around 11 AM, so if you want decent photos, go early. Small stuff like that makes a difference when you’re trying to navigate a city where every street looks like a postcard but half of them dead-end into random courtyards. The rooms themselves are comfortable without being flashy – good air conditioning (essential), decent shower pressure, and windows that actually open if you prefer fresh air to the AC hum. I stayed in one facing the interior courtyard, which was quieter but maybe a bit darker than I’d prefer. The 8.9 rating feels about right – it’s not going to blow your mind, but everything works the way it should, and honestly, when you’re spending most of your day wandering around Seville’s maze-like streets, that’s exactly what you want to come back to.

Reviews

• Ildiko from United Kingdom – 13 April 2025 (9/10)

  The location is unbeatable. Despite being right in the centre, it was very quiet as it is facing the courtyard. It’s a perfect base to explore Seville. The only thing we were missing was sugar and salt but otherwise it was all fine.

• Paula from Netherlands – 19 November 2024 (9/10)

  Amazing location right in the heart of the city! The apartment looked nice, just as the pictures and had a good standard. The bed was very comfortable and the couch was pretty comfy too. We had a great stay!
  
  What could be improved: The only thing is that the apartment door is a bit old and doesn't really block the sound from the hallway.

• Špela from Slovenia – 1 May 2024 (8/10)

  Very nice host. Beautiful and big room. On a great position, everything is so close.
  
  What could be improved: Apartment is near bars, we stayed there over the weekend and it was loud all night.
  The price for the night is too high, especially since it does not include breakfast or dinner.

• Ghosttraveller from Romania – 23 April 2025 (8/10)

  We loved the location. Even if its in the center.. it was quiet and accesible. All in all.. it was a nice staying.
  
  What could be improved: The furniture in the kitchen is not as new as it may look in the pictures.

• Marcin from Poland – 25 April 2023 (8/10)

  newly refurbished bathroom, high speed wifi, new airconditioning, location 100 steps from the cathedral, quick checkin
  
  What could be improved: there is a washing mashine but not a portion of washing powder, no sugar or salt, not one capsule for the coffee maker; of course you can buy great coffee anywhere in Seville; a cleaner refrigerator would be nice; hard bed and small pillows; problematic use of keys to the main door

• Lucia from Italy – 15 June 2025 (9/10)

  L'appartamento si trova a 500 metri dalla Cattedrale e dall'alcazar, è pulito e molto tranquillo. Spazi ampi e bagno con doccia grande e bidet. Osman che ci ha accolto è stato super gentile e disponibile. Ci siamo trovati benissimo.
  
  What could be improved: Niente, tutto ok.

• Sylvain from France – 10 May 2025 (9/10)

  L’emplacement
  
  What could be improved: Le manque d’un deuxième trousseau de clés pour deux couples ce qui était notre cas

• Jean from France – 10 February 2025 (9/10)

  L'emplacement, le confort, la taille du logement, les équipements, le calme et la propreté
  
  What could be improved: Pas de possibilité de laisser les bagages après la remise des clefs.
  La remise des clefs pourrait être simplifiée
