“Beautiful, Great Value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 July 2007
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed here for one night in Sept. 2006. It was my last night in Spain after a 14 day trip. This was a very memorable hotel. The decorations are beautiful and the furniture. We had a conopy bed. There is a beautiful library with free use of computer, the only one on our trip. It is tucked away on a side street next to the church. Although the streets are narrow we had no problem finding it. Carmona is a beautiful gem of a little town. It is also on highway to the airport away from the traffic of seville.

“Outstanding hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 May 2007

This hotel is a gem, the location is perfect and the staff attentive and caring. The rooms are very unique and comfortable. Due to it´s location near a famous church, they are not permitted to post signs, so follow their directions carefully.

“Quirky and romantic”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 November 2006

This small hotel is tucked away in the cobbled town behind the old defence walls. The building must be at least 700 - 800 years old and is a converted monastery. It is very higgledly piggledy with lots of interior patios with little fountains - all extremely beautiful. All rooms are differently decorated. Ours was a double superior, which meant it had bathroom, bedroom and separate lounge area. This cost us 68 euros per night including a simple breakfast for two people which I thought was superb value. Being such an old building there are a few things that wouldn't get in a more modern hotel, such as the radiators which must be decades old and dont work very well, but this shouldnt detract from the overall experience. The town centre is easy walking distance and there are plenty of bars and restaurants nearby.

One important thing to note - make sure you are very intimately acquainted with your travel companion as there are no doors to the bathrooms in your room! Sounds strange, but when you get there it all fits in with the decor. We had a morrocan arch through to our bathroom and it would have been tricky to put up a door without detracting from the charm of the decor.

There is no swimming pool and no minibar in the rooms - but what do you expect from such a cheap hotel? I would definitely stay here again should I return for its covenience to the town and authentic charm.

  • Liked — Charmingly authentic old monastary building, quaintly decorated.
  • Disliked — Lack of privacy between the room and bathroom.
  • Tips/Secrets — Upgrade to the double superior - it only costs 10 euros more and you get a lounge.
