Seville Airport: where to stay, areas and recommended hotels

Seville airport is 10 km from the centre: the EA bus reaches Plaza de Armas, Santa Justa and San Bernardo in about 35 minutes, a taxi with a fixed fare in 15-20. Those arriving for work or wanting the old town on foot find the heart of the city handy, between the Alfalfa and the cathedral; those continuing by train to the rest of Andalusia can base themselves near Santa Justa station. Triana, on the other bank of the Guadalquivir, offers a more local, down-to-earth atmosphere, a few minutes' walk from the old town.
