Our Take on La Terraza
La Terraza sits on the sixth floor of Hotel Inglaterra, a 165 year old institution on Plaza Nueva, and gives you 200 square meters of rooftop with the Giralda and the cathedral in frame. An elevator takes you up even if you are not a hotel guest.
The Rooftop Guide calls the mood sophisticated and relaxing, with lounge music underneath. Treat it as the calm alternative to the EME Catedral rooftop scramble.
Reading the Room
A retractable roof and heaters keep the terrace open year round, per the hotel’s own terrace page. The long bar anchors one side and the front row lounge seats face the square.
After 22:00 the hotel admits only children 12 and over with adults, so late visits skew adult by design.
What to Order First
Who Shows Up, and When
Hotel guests share the roof with dressed up locals starting their evening. Golden hour and full dark are the two windows worth planning around, once the cathedral lights come on.
Service slows when the roof fills, a pattern Tripadvisor reviews repeat. Order two rounds at once at peak.
The Pattern in the Reviews
- The view is the headline draw across Tripadvisor reviews, especially at night.
- Tasty but pricey describes the cocktail consensus; several reviewers call the pours weak for 12 to 18 euros.
- Rooftop guides keep recommending it as the quieter, less touristy answer to the EME Catedral terrace.
Go If, Skip If
- 01A first night in Seville that needs one wide view of the city.
- 02A drink on Plaza Nueva before dinner without a club soundtrack.
- 03Skip it if expensive light pours ruin your night; drink beer up here instead.
