“Hotel for coach parties and conferences situated in retail park outside Seville”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 March 2011
4
people found this review helpful

Hotel La Motilla proved to be a great disappointment. We booked it on the basis of its 4 star rating which is clearly misleading. The hotel is situated on an intersection on the main N-IV into Seville about 8 kms. from the city centre. La Motilla in Dos Hermanas is a large retail park and the area suffers from continuous heavy traffic with rumble strips approaching roundabouts which disturb sleep.

We were allocated a room which had grubby furniture and reeked of tobacco. After we complained, were re-allocated to another room with less odour but stained carpets and the same grubby furniture. Unlike most other Spanish hotels, La Motilla has carpets, but the cleaners do not hoover them. They use mops to clean them which add to the dirty surroundings. One overpriced buffet supper at the hotel was enough to prove that the food is nothing more than basic.

We asked reception if it was possible to transfer to another TRH Hotel of better standard and they were unhelpful, advising us there would be additional charges. The hotel is clearly designed for overnight coach parties and conferences and on 25th. March there was a large conference of police taking place. This attracted a demonstration about public expenditure cuts with the use of air horns and whistles supported by the twin tones of fire engines of the Bomberos. This proved to be the last straw, and we advised reception that we would be leaving a day early.

Tips for hotel - now that the smoking ban is in place, renew carpets and buy hoovers. Bar area is fine, but upgrade restaurant decor and food. AND Seville was hot at the end of March (up to 30c.). Open up the outside seating areas earlier.

Thank you very much for trusting the Hotel TRH La Motilla. We are working on improving facilities for all our customers. In the past 10 months have been renovated Hall, Restaurant, bar, terrace and some rooms. The rooms have changed all the beds are new and in anticipation of changing the carpet and wooden floors. We continue to improve so that we please even more customers. We regret that it has found the room as directed. That is unusual so we very much appreciate your comments. We hope to welcome you back to the Hotel in the near future with further improvements already completed and you can see that it is not usual that you have encountered in your last stay.

“Easy access to the city by bus, but don't rely on timetable at bus stop”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 August 2009
3
people found this review helpful

Good hotel, helpful staff. Restaurant fairly basic, as are the local bars/restaurants. However, the local places serve good Tapas at a very reasonable price. It is worth ordering several tapas rather than a full meal.
The bus to the city centre took around 20 minutes and cost 1.35 euros(single journey ticket available on bus), and drops you off at the gates of Maria Luisa Park, and very close to Plaza Espana. You get the return bus from the stop where you get off. The timetable at the bustop was incorrect. We were at the bustop at 9.45am, and the first bus to arrive was at 10.55am on the first day and 11.04 am on the second. Likewise, on our return journey, we waited approximately an hour at the bustop before a bus arrived. We travelled midweek. Perhaps the tourist office could give a more accurate timetable.
We parked free of charge at the front of the hotel. Also plenty of parking around.

“Good experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2008

My wife and I stayed at this hotel because it was recommended by friends in the area. The location is great. It is a short trip to Seville by car or by bus which picks up right across the street. The staff was friendly and helpful. I spoke broken Spanish, they spoke broken English... we were able to communicate as needed. We had only one gripe and that is that the walls seem thin and you can hear the people next to you and above you. Also, the elevator quit the night before we left and we had to carry our bags down the stairs. If I had asked, the gentleman at the counter probably would have done it though.

There is a supermarket and some places to eat right next door as well which is helpful... hotel food and drinks can get expensive.

Overall, it was perfect for our trip and the price was reasonable.

“Great Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2008

people found this review helpful

This is a great hotel, in a great location. In fact for those who love to shop it is paradise as it's right across the motorway from Sevilla Factory which is a large outlet mall housing lots of Spanish and European high street stores at great discounts. The hotel is situated in Dos Hermanas and is only a short 8KM taxi ride from Sevilla city.

I visit this hotel quite a bit and have never had a bad experience. The staff are extremely helpful and never forget a face (or a drinks order). The food in the restaurant is nice but if you are looking for something a little more authentic I would recommend dining in one of the cafés across the road, particularly for breakfast. Breakfast for two people, consisting of coffee and continental pastries is €4.50, which is fantastic value.

A great hotel, I will continue to stay here on my trips to Seville. However, be advised that Seville can get EXTREMELY hot as it is inland and while the hotel does have a pool it is, to my knowledge, only open June - September.
