Discover the beauty of Spain
Our top tips for exploring the country’s iconic landmarks and rich, cultural sights by train.
Experience Real Betis live
Step off the train into the heart of Seville and enjoy all the city has to offer.
See Real Betis live
Catch Real Betis in action at Estadio Benito Villamarín in Seville. Don your green and white striped jersey and take the train from the city’s main station, Seville–Santa Justa, to Seville–Virgen del Roció, just a few blocks from the stadium.
Spain’s rail network connects dozens of cities, so you can easily travel from Madrid or Barcelona to see Real Betis by train. If football is life, rest assured that international trains from Paris and even London can get you to Seville in time for kick-off.
Arriving by plane? While there’s no train from Seville Airport to the city center, you can take a shuttle bus to the train station or hail a taxi directly to Estadio Benito Villamarín.
Experience Seville’s city
Win, lose, or tie, a Real Betis match is an electrifying experience. Keep the vibes flowing with an evening spent drinking sherry, flamenco dancing, or making new friends over tapas.
You’ve come to Spain for the sun, and Seville’s forecast delivers daily sunshine. Some of the best beaches near Seville include the bohemian Playa del Pirata, the pristine sands of Cuesta Maneli hidden in Doñana National Park, and lively Playa de Islantilla in Huelva.
La Liga championships aren’t the only golden attractions in Seville. Climb the Torre del Oro for top-tier views of the city, see the Game of Thrones filming locations at the Royal Alcázar, and take a cruise on the Guadalquivir River during golden hour.
Savor Sevilla’s flavors
Dining in Seville, like the rest of Spain, is an event. Prepare for a long, intoxicating, and delicious night. While you’ll find paella on the menu, savvy foodies will seek out Andalusian specialties like espinacas con garbanzos (spinach with chickpeas), Jamón Ibérico (cured ham), and salmorejo (a cold and creamy tomato soup). Check out our guide to eating like a local at Seville’s best restaurants.
Of the many tapas bars, Espacio Eslava in the San Lorenzo neighborhood serves contemporary plates for travelers with a taste for something new. El Rinconcillo, on the other hand, is where you should go for traditional tapas on an empty stomach.
For fine dining, look to Seville’s Michelin-starred restaurants: Abantal and Cañabota. Both hold one star each, with Cañabota specializing in seafood and Abantal bringing a cutting-edge approach to traditional Andalusian flavors.
Stay and sleep in Seville
Those who eat, sleep, and breathe Real Betis football will find a pillow near the pitch at Silken Al-Andalus Palace, less than 1,000 feet from Estadio Benito Villamarín. This 4-star hotel features a piano bar, swimming pool, and sprawling private gardens.
Barrio de Santa Cruz, the former Jewish quarter, is a fantastic Seville area to stay in, keeping you close to Seville Cathedral, Puerta del León, and the Royal Alcázar. Hotel Casa 1800 Sevilla, Hotel Amadeus, and Hotel Legado Alcázar are all excellent overnight options.
Stay in style at one of the luxurious 5-star Seville hotels. Hotel Alfonso XIII, a Luxury Collection Hotel, offers grand rooms with private terraces, while the EME Catedral Mercer Hotel provides front-and-center views of Seville’s Cathedral and is included in the 2024 Michelin Guide.
Explore Spain by train
Seville is seductive but far from the only city in Spain you’ll want to romance. Discover more of the Andalusian region with visits to the Gadir archaeological site of Cádiz, the Moorish architecture of Córdoba, and the Picasso Museum in Málaga.
Stretch your legs without carrying your luggage with an exciting day trip from Seville. Madrid is a must-see for more than just tapas; step off of your train at Madrid Atocha and you’re in a literal botanical garden. From seeing the Alhambra in Granada to the Puente Nuevo in Ronda, you won’t regret saying “see ya soon” to Seville for a few hours.
Don’t let your wanderlust stay attached to your hotel reservation in Seville. Discover Antoni Gaudí’s amazing architecture in Barcelona, plan a golf getaway on the Costa del Sol, or escape into Basque country where you’ll see, feel, and taste a new flavor of Spanish culture – all by train from Seville–Santa Justa.
