Originally home to one of Spain's lace mantilla companies, this historic property was fully renovated in 2014. The 12-room Alminar Hotel is now a stylish mid-range boutique on a quiet pedestrian street in the heart of Seville's Old Town, within walking distance to major attractions and close to restaurants and shops. The hotel's clean, impactful design -- contemporary furnishings set against colorful mosaics and carved wooden panels -- sets it apart, but there are few common areas and features. The rooftop deck is only available seating for guests staying in the adjacent rooms. Buffet breakfast is served, for a fee, in a small dining area. Travelers in search of additional amenities should try the nearby Dona Maria for a rooftop pool and hip bar.

Located in the historic center of Seville, the 134-room Hotel Becquer has a rooftop terrace overlooking the Seville Cathedral and iconic Giralda bell tower. Originally a 19th century palace home, the hotel today has been modernized and refurbished in a classically elegant style. Rooms are simple and clean, if a bit small, with electric kettles and stocked minibars. There is a rooftop pool and popular tapas bar on-site, but some guests find the location in Seville's narrow streets difficult to find.

The three-pearl Hotel Fernando III has an enviable location in the heart of Seville, just seven minutes' walk from the Cathedral and less than 20 from the Plaza de Espana. Although its fantastic setting means that outside space is at a premium, there is a sunny rooftop terrace with a pool and adjacent bar, offering views over the red tile rooftops and church spires of Seville. The 151 rooms are large and typically bright, although some face into an internal courtyard and have views of a brick wall. Amenities include flat-screen TVs, tea- and coffee-making facilities, and free Wi-Fi. A well-reviewed restaurant is on-site, but there are no gym or spa facilities. Guests set on a hotel with wellness offerings may want to check out Las Casas de la Juderia and its charming terraces.

Barcelo Sevilla Renacimiento is a modern upscale hotel with plenty of features, including an outdoor pool and kids' pool, 25 meeting rooms, kid-friendly activities, a gym, and multiple dining options -- though no spa. Its 295 guest rooms are spacious and contemporary, equipped with flat-screen TVs, minibars, kettles, and iPod docks. A notable downside is the location, however, as it's not within walking distance of the main attractions. For something in the city center, travelers might want to check out the Gran Melia Colon, a five-pearl property with a spa -- but no pool and pricier rates.

The 170-room Novotel Sevilla is a three-and-a-half-pearl hotel situated next to the soccer stadium and a three-minute walk to the Nervion Metro station. It's a bit removed from the city center and major attractions, but there are restaurants and cafes nearby. Rooms that have been renovated are modern and fresh, but some still have outdated carpeting and need a refresh. A restaurant serves Mediterranean fare for all meals, including a breakfast buffet, and the rooftop pool is a nice addition. There's also a small fitness room. Travelers who'd like to be closer to the city center and major attractions without spending a lot more money could check out the Hotel America - Seville, a somewhat drab hotel in an excellent location.

The 18-room Hotel Casa del Poeta is an intimate, upper-mid-range property centered around a charming three-story courtyard brimming with plants and open to the sky. The interior architecture as well as the setting are particularly romantic; the property is removed from the street down a tiny, pedestrian, cobblestone alleyway, and situated two blocks from the Alcàzar (within walking distance of many of the most beautiful tourist destinations in the heart of the city). Rooms are simple and elegant with marble floors, white walls, stocked minibars, and free Wi-Fi. Bathrooms are on the small side, and there is little drawer space for clothing. A few guests have noted noise from the inner courtyard.
