El Centro is the neighbourhood in the very heart of historic Seville. Located north of the grand Cathedral, it is at the meeting point of all the main central neighbourhoods: El Arenal, Santa Cruz, Macarena and San Vicente.
El Centro begins at Plaza de San Francisco and Plaza Nueva, location of the elaborate City Hall, and includes Calles Sierpes, Velázquez and Tetuan: Seville's famous shopping streets.
This location is ideal for short-term rentals as all the city's main monuments and sights are within easy reach from your apartment.

Sevillians famousy keep late hours and after dark the city certainly doesn't sleep! Visitors are often surprised to see very young children running around the streets at midnight. The small area around the Alfalfa is replete with bars and families. Young Sevillians congregate around Calle Perez Galdós - a street lined with pubs and tapas bars, though the square itself is mainly frequented by international students and tourists.
Further north, between Plaza de la Encarnación and Plaza de Los Terceros there is a good mix of traditional bars and restaurants packed with residents. On Calle Gerona you'll find the oldest bar in Seville, El Rinconcillo, dating from 1670, its a great place to experience a traditional Sevillan bar both in atmosphere, decoration, food and drink. If you are looking for more of a local atmosphere, head towards the surrounding neighbourhoods - El Arenal and Macarena.
