Semana Santa Tips needed. Dinner reservations?

My family of four (husband, myself and 2 young adult daughters) will be in Sevilla on Tues- Thurs and Granada on Sat and Sunday of Semana Santa (April 11-16). This was a somewhat last minute plan and we are first timers. Just realized I never made any dinner reservations and am reading that the crowds can be overwhelming.

In Sevilla, we are staying at Petit Palace Santa Ana a couple blocks from the Cathedral. In Granada, at the Hotel Guadalupe up by the Alhambra. Should I try to get some reservations now? Any tips on how ( a particular website for this) and where to go? Or are we OK winging it?

Any other tips for this week are much appreciated!

Bridget,

I've visited Sevilla & Granada but not during Semana Santa.

Do expect huge crowds and noisy nights during Semana Santa in Sevilla & pretty much in all of Andalucía.

I'd call your hotels & ask about making dinner reservations.

I know Chani visited Sevilla during Semana Santa last year, so hopefully she will see your post & reply.

I hope you've booked your Alhambra tickets already because... April is completely sold out.

Enjoy your trip!
