Selecta Elegante Apartamento con Patio en Centro Historico Overview
First Impressions
Walking down Calle Corral del Rey, you’d almost miss the entrance to Selecta Elegante Apartamento con Patio en Centro Historico if you weren’t looking for it — and honestly, that’s part of its charm. This isn’t your typical hotel with a flashy lobby, but rather a beautifully restored apartment that feels like you’re staying in a local friend’s place. The moment you step inside, you realize you’ve found something special tucked away in one of Seville‘s most authentic neighborhoods.
Location & Neighborhood
I mean, you really can’t get more central than this. The property sits right in the heart of Seville’s Old Town, and when they say it has a location score of 9.7, they’re not exaggerating. You’re literally a five-minute walk from the Cathedral and Giralda, and the narrow cobblestone streets around you are lined with tapas bars that locals actually frequent — not just tourist traps. What I love about this particular street is that it’s residential enough to feel authentic, but you can still hear the gentle hum of the city’s energy just around the corner.
The Apartment & Patio
The apartment itself strikes that perfect balance between historic character and modern comfort. You’ll find original architectural details that remind you you’re in a centuries-old building, but everything works exactly as it should. The real star, though, is the patio — and in Seville, having your own outdoor space is pure gold. It’s not huge, but it’s perfectly sized for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine, and there’s something magical about having this little oasis in the middle of such a bustling historic quarter.
Living Like a Local
What sets this place apart is how it lets you experience Seville like you actually live here. There’s a proper kitchen if you want to cook (and the nearby Mercado de la Encarnación has incredible fresh produce), but honestly, with so many authentic restaurants within walking distance, you might not use it much. The setup works particularly well for couples — no wonder they rate the location a perfect 10. You can wander out for breakfast, explore the maze of streets during the day, then retreat back to your own private space when you need a break from the crowds.
Why Guests Love It
This isn’t the kind of place where you’ll find a concierge or room service, but that’s exactly why it works so well. You get the independence of having your own apartment combined with an unbeatable location that puts you right in the thick of everything that makes Seville special. The fact that it consistently earns such high ratings (8.8 overall) tells you that guests appreciate this more authentic approach to accommodation. It’s perfect for travelers who want to feel connected to the city rather than insulated from it — you know, the kind of place where you’ll actually remember the street name long after you’ve left.

What could be improved: Es complicada la regulación de la temperatura de la ducha del dormitorio pequeño.
Este dormitorio resulta incómodo si se abren las dos camas.Allahham from Lebanon – 29 November 2024 (9/10)

What could be improved: Ace above the bed when we sleepWalter from United Kingdom – 10 November 2024 (9/10)
The property was very central.
Everything was so close. Close to the sights and supermarket. 2 rooms with 2 bathrooms. Amazing.
The property was clean and spacious. Very confortabile for me and my partner. Impeccable kitchen.
The ladies, Esperanza and Maria del Mar, made the staying so special for us. They were very friendly and very easy to book. They were very responsive at the time of texting, and they gave us so many recommendations on how to visit Sevilla. Gracias chicas.
What could be improved: Everything was above expectations. We are extremely happy.Julie from United States – 24 September 2024 (4/10)
Good location
What could be improved: Lock box to get key around the corner and hard to see. Took an hour and host never a swerved the phone. Kitchen smelled BAD. No blankets on the bed. The terrace was on the inside. The 2nd bedroom bed was a child's bed.Johnson from United Kingdom – 1 May 2023 (4/10)
Good shower, nice kitchen, ok lounge and outside area.
What could be improved: The owner ignored our request to get an earlier access to the property, we had arrived at 10am in Madrid as there were only 2 flights available, either 6.20 am to a lot later in the evening. We requested if we could access the apartment at 2pm – The owner didnt respond to my friends initial text messages or calls and we were then told that we couldn't get in until 4pm, we didn't actually gain entrance until 4.35pm and that was when the cleaner came out. It would have been helpful if we could have left our suitcase there before it was ready. We were hot and tired and starting to worry that we wouldn't have anywhere to stay as the city was fully booked due to the fiesta. The beds weren't very comfortable and the pillows were very thin.Valerie from United Kingdom – 27 January 2023 (8/10)
Great location – bars, restaurants, shops and a couple of supermarkets very close by. Also very easy to walk to the main sights in the area.
What could be improved: Access into the property was difficult. There is a (new to us) system called Nuki. The host instructed us to download the app, which we did, but we couldn't make it work. We managed to enter the building only by enlisting the help of another resident who opened the doors for us. Once inside we found the keys easily so that thereafter access wasn't a problem. We feel that potential clients should be informed at the time of booking of this Nuki set-up as not everyone has the necessary smart phone. Also tried to ring the host to ask for help but no-one was available.Donovan from United Kingdom – 16 December 2022 (9/10)

What could be improved: no muchNirmala from France – 12 December 2022 (8/10)
Place is perfectly situated, it was specious enough for 2 to 3 people. There is also a nice terrace, but no view as it's on the inside of the building facing your neighbors, so we didn't feel like using it.
It has 2 bedrooms with enough closet space and a nice big bathroom.
1 pers. bedroom with a private small bathroom and 2 pers bedroom with a very small 2 person bed, 120, maybe 140cm.
The bigger bedroom you can hear the neighbors clearly so with the windows open you will wake up from the noises.
The contact with the owner went easy by email or text.
To get access to the building you need to provide info about all quest staying. When you arrive you need to download an app to get a key code, for older people it might be a problem.
We enjoyed our stay, are happy with the quick response to any questions we had and would return next time.
What could be improved: Double bed very small for 2 persons.
Noises from the neighbors in the bigger bedroom.
For older people the required steps before getting the key code might be a problem.
