Staying in Alameda de Hércules, Seville

Check whether your entrance opens onto the square or a neighboring street, and ask which way the bedroom faces. The two ends of the Alameda are far enough apart to change your daily walking route. Calle Trajano leads south toward the center, while Calle Feria gives you another route through the northern old town.
