Staying near Seville Cathedral: hotels, metro and night map
The short answer
Stay within a few minutes' walk of the cathedral if you want La Giralda 60 m away on foot and Puerta de Jerez metro 466 m south, an 8-minute estimated walk. It suits sightseeing-first visitors who accept a lively evening map. Skip it if you want few bars: 31 bars and pubs sit within 250 m, a high night-noise proxy. The catch is that the north and north-west samples map the most venues.

Who it suits, who should skip it
Good for
- Sightseers who want the cathedral and La Giralda, 60 m from the anchor, on foot
- Visitors who accept a busy evening map nearby in return for short walks
- Travellers who want a wide list of 30 mapped hotels within 500 m
Skip it if
- You want few mapped bars: 31 sit within 250 m of the anchor
- You need a metro stop at the door: Puerta de Jerez is 466 m away
- You need confirmed step-free routes; the data holds only sampled elevation
Where to stay around the cathedral
The nearest mapped hotels sit close to the cathedral. Hotel EME is 112 m away, a 2-minute walk, and Dona Maria Hotel is 145 m away, a 3-minute walk. Petit Palace Catedral is 187 m away and Hotel Palacio Alcázar is 191 m away, both a 4-minute walk. OpenStreetMap lists 30 hotels within 500 m, so the choice is wide.
Hotel details are as tagged in OpenStreetMap and are not verified. Compare the ring samples before choosing: the south-east sample maps 7 venues within 250 m, the south-west sample 10 and the south sample 12, against 31 to the north and 32 to the north-west. La Puerta de Palacio, at 202 m, lies in the southern direction. That is a map-based hint, not a measurement of any street.
Getting around on foot and by metro
The sights on the list are all within a few minutes of the anchor. Museo Catedralicio is 41 m away, Tumba de Cristóbal Colón 50 m and La Giralda 60 m, each a 1-minute walk. Walk times are estimates from the anchor point, using a 1.3 detour factor and 80 m a minute, not routed journeys.
The nearest metro stop found is Puerta de Jerez, 466 m from the anchor, about 8 minutes on foot. The data lists no lines for it and the context source supports location only, so check the metro map for services before relying on it. The figure is measured from the cathedral, not from any hotel.
Noise at night: what the map shows
Within 250 m of the anchor, OpenStreetMap maps 27 bars, 4 pubs and no nightclubs, 31 venues in all, which gives a high night-noise proxy on our scale. This counts mapped venues and does not measure sound, so traffic, events and unmapped venues sit outside it.
The ring samples show how uneven the count is. North-west maps 32, north 31, west 22, east 19, north-east 17, south 12, south-west 10 and south-east 7. Ask for a room facing away from the street, and treat these as sampled points, not named streets.
Hills and walking around the cathedral
Sampled elevation runs from 10 m to 25 m, a 15 m range, with the anchor at 16 m. The east sample is highest at 25 m and the south sample lowest at 10 m. This is a spread between sampled points, not a route climb, and it says nothing about steps or accessibility.
From the cathedral to Puerta de Jerez the sampled elevation difference is 3 m, with the stop at 13 m. Over 466 m that is a small change in the data, though the sampling is coarse, so the gradient of individual streets is not shown.

- Night-noise risk counts places tagged as bars, pubs and nightclubs in OpenStreetMap within 250 m: low under 8, medium from 8 or with any nightclub, high from 25 or with 3 nightclubs. It counts mapped venues; it does not measure sound.
- Walking times take the straight-line distance, add 30% for the street network and assume 80 m a minute, rounded up. They are estimates, not routes.
- Climb is the spread between the highest and the lowest sampled point in Copernicus DEM GLO-90 via the Open-Meteo Elevation API. Terrain models average the ground into cells, so a few metres either way are within their error.
- Searched on 14 Oct 2026: the metro within 1.2 km, hotels within 500 m. A place missing from OpenStreetMap is missing here too.
Questions and answers
How far is the nearest metro from Seville Cathedral?
Puerta de Jerez is 466 m from the anchor, an estimated 8-minute walk using a 1.3 detour and 80 m a minute. The data lists no lines, so check services separately. The figure is from the cathedral, not a hotel.
Is the cathedral area noisy at night?
OpenStreetMap maps 31 bars and pubs within 250 m, made up of 27 bars and 4 pubs, a high night-noise proxy. It counts venues rather than measuring sound, so the position of your room still matters.
Which hotels are closest to the cathedral?
Hotel EME is 112 m away, a 2-minute walk, followed by Dona Maria Hotel at 145 m and Hotel Simón at 157 m, both 3 minutes. Details are as tagged and not verified, so check each hotel directly.
Is the cathedral area hilly?
Sampled elevation spans 10 m to 25 m, a 15 m range across the ring. That is a spread between points, not a route climb, so it does not describe the gradient of any street or accessibility.
