“Be very careful when choosing your room.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 October 2011

person found this review helpful

Frankly, I chose this hotel because it was the only one among the cheap ones in Sevilla that had not a terrible decoration.

The first room I was offered at my arrival had its only window on the corridor! (sic). They call them 'interior', so be careful when booking. I thought this was forbidden. Each floor has six rooms of this kind and three normal rooms with a french window to the street.

We were going to spend a whole week in Sevilla, so I asked for one of these rooms with a window that can be opened to the street, you know what I mean. A normal room.

The room was ok. Clean, reasonnably kept, but things made you remember it was cheap (e.g. plastic glasses in the bathroom).

The street was fairly noisy, but the windows were good, with double glazing.

Breakfast was really poor, at least for us who were going to spend a week. There was a coffee machine, false orange juice and a toaster. All dishes, glasses and cuttlery in plastic. And all this scenery was kept in a 15 sq.m. room. We made do by buying different sorts of fruit in a nearby shop.

But the magic of this city and its inhabitants made us forget everything. This city is really unique, and its citizens are envied by their way of living.

Just one more tip: Do not buy the special transportation card for tourists. The public transportation (buses) has a radial scheme; it connects the perifery with the downtown area, but is almost inexistent in the historical centre, which is very big indeed -2 by 3 km-, and the space where we tourists move. Most of this area is closed to trafic. Moreover, the bus system is sort of Kafkaesque. We chose one day to go by bus to the catedral early in the morning, to discover that that precise line started at 10:30 AM.

Room Tip: For your sake, ask for a room with a window on the street. The other ones have their only window on...

“Pleasant hotel in good location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2011

Having booked to stay at the sister hotel, Doña Lola, I was surprised to be told when I arrived, that I was now staying here. It was late and I imagined it was going to be the same style etc, so I didn't press the point. Whilst it is a perfectly nice hotel, it's style is far more traditional than its more contemporary sibling - which is why I had chosen it - so I was a little disappointed on that count. The lady on reception was efficient, but not particularly friendly and didn't offer any explanation about the change except to say the price would remain the same.
The room itself was on the small side, but fittings and facilities were all in excellent condition.
The downside was that it had no external window, only one which opened onto the internal patio.
The wifi signal was excellent in the room and there was also a PC downstairs for those requiring other internet access.
The location is pretty good, especially if shopping is a priority. If culture is the main focus the walk to the cathedral etc is a little longer, but still within easy reach. The area is lively and is full of restaurants and bars, but the square where the hotel is situated was busy but not noisy on the weekend I visited.

Room Tip: Mention an 'external' window when booking if that is important to you.

“Pleasant, clean basic hotel with friendly staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 March 2011

Pleasant hotel. Very clean with helpful staff, although they have limited command of English, they did their very best to help out with our enquiries. No information was provided in the rooms and no tv channel that was English speaking, not even the news! Firstly,the breakfast was very poor, just juice, bread and drinks. It was self service and drinks were dispensed from a beverage machine in paper cups, with plastic plates and utensils for the food, accompanied by paper signs saying what you could or could not do. Secondly we paid for an upgrade to a room with a balcony at the front of the building. This was a very pleasant room, in my opinion well worth the extra cost, but other guests who were staying in the property found the interior rooms dark and noisy and would not recommend them. If you intend to use the room as a base for seeing Seville this hotel ticks the box, clean, slightly away from the centre but easily accessible, with very helpful polite and pleasant staff. As a footnote please ensure you have an exact cost when using a taxi, not an estimate, as we found to our cost the taxi drivers will argue and overcharge if given the opportunity.

“No windows - horrible”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 February 2010
1
person found this review helpful

The hotel is in a great location. It is very well priced. The hotel has been nicely restored and redecorated and everything was spotless and the bed comfortable. However the room has no exterior window so is dark in the daytime and HOT. As I was only staying one night it was bearable and this was in the winter. I would not even consider a room like this for summer.

“Be careful when booking!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 April 2009

There was some mix-up with my booking so instead of my original hotel I was sent to Hotel Casona de San Andres - and that was my loss!
I was told it was better hotel but I got a room where the only window opened up to an indoor corridor so everyone passing by could hear and see everything. The aircondition did not work so the temperature in the room reached 28 degrees C. A ventilator could not be found. But even worse than the claustrophobic heat was a large group of German guests. Apparently they had a very nice time - but they also made sure that noone else got more than 2 to 3 hours of sleep before they started again at 6.30 am. And no, they were not teenagers! I just had to get out - and yes, I paid.
The receptionist was so sorry and when I returned to my originally booked hotel they had made sure that I got a very nice room but still it does not make up for that horrible night.
