We will be going to Barcelona, Seville, Cordoba, and Madrid for 11 days in June. Our apartment in Barcelona is booked, now I need recommendations for hotels in Seville (2nt) and Cordoba (1nt). It will be a family of 4 with 2 teens. Looking for clean, quiet, central location and hoping to spend around $125- $150 per night.
Thanks!

I have no idea what the rates would be, but I was very pleased with Hotel Las Casas de la Judería in Sevilla.

In Seville, we are staying at Apartamentos Suites Santa Cruz
recommended by Candace on this forum.

In Cordoba, we are staying at Las Casas de la Juderia de Cordoba, also recommended by Candace.

I think both of them are around $150.
Hope this helps.

@ karenwoo- thanks for info. Is this in a good location as far as you can see? This is the only place that is still available out of all of the recommendations, bat 10 of them. I was starting to get nervous. This looks nice and a great price.

We stayed at Las Casas de la Juderia last week. Loved it and found it to be well located. Córdoba isn't that big and is very walkable. Booking.com often has good deals on the hotel.

@karenwoo-I went ahead and booked it! There wasn't a whole lot of options for my dates and this looks great! What are you planning to do in Seville? After I book hotels, I am starting to plan what to do in each place.

In Cordoba we stayed in Hotel Viento 10. Definitely in your price range for a double room. Not sure about quads.

While in Cordoba, eat at Regadera, best meal we had in that Andalusia.

Kwar, we are planning on the following:

Seville's Cathedral
Alcazar - UNESCO World Heritage Site
Casa de Pilates
Hospital de Los Venerables Sacerdotos - art gallery in a baroque mansion
Museo de Bellas Artes de Sevilla - excellent museum of Spanish art
Parroquia del Divino Salvador - baroque church
Hopefully see a Flamenco show.
We like to wander through neighbrhoods, such as Barrio de Santa Cruz, Triana district, Plaza de Espagna

Not sure if we will have time to do everything, but the top 3 are "must sees".
We will be in Seville for 4 nights.
Just curious, which hotel did you book?
Hope this helps. We are going in September. Are you planning on writing a trip report?

@Karenwoo- I booked your recommendation for Seville. The cordoba hotel was almost $400 for one night so I went with a different one in Cordoba.
Thanks for all of the great info on Seville. I have all accommodations booked now except for Madrid. We are there for 3 nights so I will be looking for an apartment. Any advice?

In Seville we did city tour and Alcazar tour with Concepcion at https://www.tourhq.com/guide/es91256/concepcin-delgado . She was amazing, just loved spending time with her!

We saw a flamenco show here (purchased tickets in advance) http://www.lacasadelflamencosevilla.com/

For flamenco, we really enjoyed a performance at the Museo del Baile Flamenco. The 7 p.m. show is held in the smaller of two rooms and is quite intimate. Book in advance though. All the shows there tend to sell out.

We also enjoyed a food tour with Devour Tours. I assume they offer one that is suitable for kids (ours involved both tapas and drinks). They offer tours in Madrid as well.

Either you are reading it wrong or there is something special abut the dates you picked. There are festivals around that period. But I found rates for the basic double room around $225 a night in mid-May. For example, hotels in Seville have super-high rates during Semana Santa, maybe double normal, and also high rates during the spring festival. There is also a spring festival in Cordoba the last week. But even then, I don't see rates anything like $390 a night for the basic double room. The junior suite is about that much, though.

Barbara,
We stayed at Las Casas de la Juderia in Cordoba this past September. We stayed there 2 nights. I checked our receipt, and we paid $400 for 2 nights, and that includes having drinks at the honor bar for both nights.
