Dona Carmela

"Our fourth stay in this hotel and never disappoints. From reception staff , who are very helpful , to the cleaning of room excellent. It may be situated a short distance outside city centre but there is an excellent frequent bus service , 37 1.40€ pp flat fare , that takes you to its terminus in the city centre close to main attractions. The hotel’s cafeteria also serves great food having eaten twice on our recent visit or enjoying a drink. Would certainly visit again."

"We stayed for four nights. The room and bathroom were a decent size, the breakfast plentiful enough. A big thanks to Maria in the Reception, she arranged a tour of Real Betis football stadium and a bus trip to Cadiz for us. Muchas gracias Maria x. Thanks also to Salla in the reception x. We ate in the downstairs bar every night, a big thanks to Carlos and Joaquin, great barmen. The bar is great value for money and used by the locals, a sure sign that it's good. The hotel is approx 30 mins from the centre of Seville, use the No. 3 or 37 busses to take you back and forth, it costs about €1.80 and busses run regularly. All told, for what we paid, a nice little hotel made all that better by friendly staff. The Mercadona supermarket is opposite if you need any food or drink. Tip, it helps if you can speak some Spanish."

"Booked this for our 35th wedding anniversary. Hotel is very clean and staff friendly and helpful. Rooms are comfortable and airy with a mini fridge, although do note no electricity once room card removed, although keeps everything chilled. No kettles in rooms so we took a travel kettle with us. Breakfast was good and they had gluten free bread on request for my wife who is coeliac and also gluten free cereal if required, not to mention a good continental selection. We ate at the hotel both evenings, had a delicious gluten free tapas selection first night on request, goats cheese, walnuts and green leaf salad drizzled with honey glaze, cod cheek gratin with ratatouille and thin pork slices with a few fries, plus breadsticks and bread plus lovely cake and gluten free option for the wife. Second evening we had beefburger and fries, which was also very nice, and freshly cooked. Would definitely recommend this hotel, and the tapas bar is very popular with the locals which stands testament to the quality of the food. The hotel is located in a suburb a little way out from the city therefore we chose to take two local buses, the airport bus can be located just outside the airport to the right by the bus ticket office. We bought a ticket into the City to Prado San Sebastian, crossed the road and looked for the 37 bus stop. Got off approx 25 mins later at Eduard Muira bus stop in Bella Vista, then the hotel 5 minute walk through the streets to the hotel which is almost opposite the Mercadona supermarket. The bus trips to the hotel cost 13.60 Euros for the two of us each way as against 40 Euros for a taxi and they run very frequently approx every 10-12 minutes. When going back to city catch the bus from opposite side of road to see all the beautiful sights of the city, get off at Prado San Sebastian to walk through the park with palm trees, fountains and parakeets flying around and continue on into the city to see the stunning Plaza De Espana and beyond."
