“Great service”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 November 2011 via mobile

We arrived by train and walked to the hotel. It was a bit of an adventure to get to, but we did manage. The area immediately around the hotel is a bit dodgy, but we encountered no trouble.

The lady on reception was excellent. We asked many questions during our stay and she was very helpful and nothing seemed too hard or bothersome.

Our room was good but the walls were paper thin. We consistently heard people in the halls and other rooms. There were some school groups there while we stayed which was part of the noise.

The bathroom was ok but the shower was quite small and tight. Unfortunately we could not get the wifi to work, so we used the computer downstairs.

There was a LIDL supermarket just 2 minutes away as were the bus stops to get around. We generally walked around the city with most places being within 40 minutes.

“A cozy place though not exactly in the city center”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2011

This hotel is not really in the city center – all the main attractions are about 25 minutes’ walk away – and not very close to the railway station, either – a walk from the station takes about 20 minutes. It is a rather small hotel in a corner building, and the hotel sign is not very noticeable, so it was not very easy to find. On the other hand, if you don’t mind walking (and I don’t), it is a very nice place to stay in Seville – it faces a small square with the church of Santa Lucia, and my room was fairly quiet with a nice view.

My room was not big but it was air-conditioned with a very comfortable bed. There was a safety box, which was another plus point. The bathroom had all the necessary toiletries and was impeccably clean. Free wi-fi in the rooms was a big advantage.

The cold buffet breakfast was average but quite adequate a choice of ham, cheese, rolls, and some fruit.

The staff speak very good English; they are all very friendly and the receptionist will give you a city map and supply you with all the necessary information. Generally, a very nice place to stay if you don’t mind being a little bit away from the main sights.

“Good value if you don't mind walking a bit”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 June 2011

person found this review helpful

We stayed here during the off season and it was very good value for money. The rooms and bathrooms were a very good size and the staff were helpful when we requested a room change due to a smoky smell in the first one.
The hotel is a 20 to 25 minute walk from the centre of Seville. The quickest route is through narrow streets as previously described but we didn't find the route seedy or threatening at all. In fact both of us walked back on our own on more than one occasion without a qualm. There are several good local bars/restaurants en route and a couple of great pastry shops!
It is about a 15 minute walk to the station where we picked up the airport bus. I wouldn't walk this route at night.
I would certainly consider staying again although in the heat of summer, perhaps the walk would be too much!

“Good Hotel in Sevilla”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 May 2011

While the location was not as close to shopping/dining areas it was still walkable. The hotel manager spoke good english and provided us with great service. He helped us book one of the best Flamenco shows in town. The rooms were quiet and comfortable with a spacious modern bathroom.

“Scary location in a bad neighborhood / far from everything”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 April 2011
4
people found this review helpful

I recommend you stay at a hotel closer to the main attractions and in a better neighborhood....rather than staying here.

This hotel is NOT close to Santa Lucia station as they advertise. It's a 1 mile (20 min) walk and it's difficult to do with bags. We almost got robbed on our walk to the hotel as some guy snuck up behind us and tried to steal my bag pack...I yelled at him loudly and it scared him off and he ran away. The neighborhood this hotel is in looks run down and is very seedy. It's in a residential area very far from downtown Seville. It's a 25 min walk to the cathedral area thru narrow streets that are really seedy and scary. If you walk on the main road, it's a one hour walk. They do have a bus station 2 blocks from the hotel but the neighborhood is bad, so if you come back late at night, it's a scary walk from bus stop to hotel.

The rooms are small but clean. Bathroom is adequate and clean also. They claim to offer internet corner for 3 euros but it never worked. We asked them to fix it every day and they said they didn't know how to. Staff is nice but not too helpful.

There's no Metro in Seville, so you either have to take cabs or buses. Buses are plenty and easy to use once you familiarize yourself with the routes. Not as easy to figure out as Metros in the rest of the spain's cities.

Breakfast is expensive and not worth it.
