We stayed at the Hotel Abril for 3 nights in early September and were impressed mainly with the excellent location of the hotel. The Hotel is within 10 minutes walk of the city centre, the river, and the Alameda de Hercules. Our room had no natural light but was clean, quiet and fairly big. The staff were incredibly friendly and had excellent local knowledge. The free coffee, tea and biscuits was much appreciated after walking around this amazing city for hours. This hotel was excellent value for money and I would definately recommend it to anyone visiting Seville.

We stayed here in June in a bed with three single beds for 60 euros total, very pleased. We walked to the Cathedral and the Alcázar in 15 minutes, and there are plenty of great restaurants and shops near the Hotel, located right in the historic center. They also let us leave our baggage there in storage for a week before leaving. I highly recommend it!

Like an earlier reviewer, we were given a room on the ground floor in the rear that had only one window, which looked into the computer room/common room. This meant we could not open the curtains, and therefore had no natural light or air. Needless to say, we tried to spend as little time in the room as possible. The room itself was reasonably clean.

The hotel is close enough to the city center, but it is not really in the city center. You can walk anywhere in a matter of 20-30 minutes or so, but to get to the hotel from the center you have to walk past a construction site (marked as a park on maps) and through a graffiti-lined alley that isn't terrible but really just rubs in the fact that you're not really in the center...

The breakfast was passable, but was mostly things that you would not eat if you had a choice. The automatic coffee dispenser in the breakfast room produces a coffee-like substance that is best left alone. The coffee in Seville is generally so good that you're better off just finding a random cafe around the corner somewhere.

Overall, Hotel Abril is certainly passable in most regards if you're stuck and need a place to stay, but it is certainly not what you would expect for the price you will pay. We stayed at 4 different hotels in in Spain during this trip, and Hotel Abril was just as expensive as the 4 star hotels we stayed in in Cordoba and Madrid, but it was not nearly as comfortable.

On the plus side- the desk staff were very friendly and helpful. They were more than happy to give us toilet paper when it was not replenished by the service staff.

Excellent relationship price/quality; nice staff (very nice the lady at the reception ; ). Surely I'll come again in Seville (wonderful place!) and surely I'll stay in Abril Hotel

We were given a room on the ground floor in the back. The only window
opened on to a tiny courtyard. Anyone talking in this courtyard sounded much louder than if they were in the room with us. This space
was used quite a bit-understandably, if other rooms were as ugly and uncomfortable as ours. We had been in Spain for three weeks by then, and had gotten into the habit of spending the late afternoon in our room resting/reading/drinking wine so that we could try to stay up late and join the crowds of people who seem to fill the streets in every town we visited. we soon came to dread this previously very pleasant time of the day-we hated to come back to our room in the Hotel Abril. We always book into budget places, and so aren't suprised by funky or odd places, but I don't think we have ever been so happy to check out of a hotel.

  • Liked — The staff had very little english, but were good about doing their best.
  • Disliked — Awful place.
