Hotel Alminar - Seville

7.5

the service was excellent and the recommendations for restaurants absolutely perfect.....

8.2

The check-in staff was absolutely wonderful. The woman who checked us in gave us a very detailed map of the city with recommendations of sites, bars and restaurants and she even booked us a flamenco show our first evening which was an incredible experience. The room was rather small and we could only get a room on the first floor which was a little noisy but overall it was a great stay!

9.8

The hotel is just a few steps away from the church and Alcazar, which is the best location to be situated in. The staff was very personable and eager to please. The breakfast was very reasonable at 6 euros.

8.6

Great find and fantastic location. Close to everything. Staff was extremely helpful with everything. Not the plushest of rooms, but certainly acceptable for the price/location, etc.

Room 13 at The Alminar may be the noisiest room we have ever booked. All street noise and a door that you had to slam to close. The lady at reception assured us that all of their rooms were the same and "you can't find a quiet room near the center of any large European city" We paid 120 Euro fee and left. We walked half a block and got 3 good nights sleep at The Hotel San Francisco in larger quieter room for 56 Euros per night.

Outstanding hotel - superb customer service and a fantastic location

Lovely small hotel. Very nice rooms. Excellent location only a minute from the cathedral. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay there again.

8.8

The hotel was located on a pedestrian only street right behind the Cathedral. You are centrally located to all attractions and restaurants. The rooms were spacious by European standards. Our only difficulty was in finding the hotel by automobile even with a gps and then parking. I suggest that you park outide the center and taxi in. Some of the views talk about street noise and the cathedral bells- but in January with the windows closed we had no problems woth noise.

Terrible experience in this hotel due to the infestation of flies in room 3.When complained Manager just told us that they weren't mosquitos and won't bite!We must have killed at least 100 on our 1st night and when we woke up to just as many the next morning we decided to leave.We were booked for another night which hotel didn't charge but really they shouldn't have charged us at all as the experience was so bad. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone!

Excellent location. Situated about one minutes walk from the cathedral. Receptionist was fantastic. So informative. Great service.

9.4

I had a serious problem to deal with while at the Hotel Alminar. The staff could not have been more helpful. The manager spoke perfect English. He lived in the US for a while. The hotel is only a couple of hundred feet from the Cathedral. Overall, it was excellent by any standard. For the price it was amazing.

9.5

great staff - a true home away from home

9.1

The hotel was great! The front desk was very helpful. The only issue is the wake-up calls. Either the front desk called too late or not at all. Otherwise the hotel is in a great location and is reasonably priced.

7.9

El hotel está muy bien ubicado, la gente es muy servicial y agradable. Las habitaciones son limpias, el precio es razonable.

Fantastic hotel right where the attractions are, superb service of the staff.

9.2

Klein aber fein! Hat Stil. Sehr nett designed. Sehr zentral. Alles zu Fuß erreichbar in wenigen Minuten. Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Nachts hatten wir die Fenster zu und Lärm war kein Problem. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Tolles Hotel in einer tollen Stadt.

8.5

The hotel is in a great location. It is just around the corner from the cathedral and Alcazar. The staff are all very nice, very friendly and knowledgable of everything. This is a three star hotel but they really act like a higher ranked hotel. They even had stamps and mailed my post cards.(Some 4 star hotels do not do that.) The room was very clean and looked exactly like the photos - contemporary and simple.

7.9

Maria and Fransisco are amazing -- funny and informative. Great location -- would stay here again for sure. We did have one of the patio rooms on top of the building and would strongly recommend those.

9.8

The hotel has a friendly and competent staff. Hotel manager Francisco was delightful to encounter and very informative about both the area and the local culture. Maria and Jose as well as the other employees who worked the desk were always helpful and cheery. My room was clean and tasteful. It's in a great location - a little too great. Always seemed to be lots of loud conversations or arguments late at night in the alley near the hotel's front door. Not the hotel's fault, obviously, but a bit of a nuisance just the same.

8.7

We stayed for 4 nights and had a great time. Brilliant location in the centre, yet quiet enough (pedestrian street). The hotel staff is extremely helpful (and fun) and gave us many useful tips - as well as some good laughs! We didn't have breakfast at the hotel as we preferred the buzz of the nearby bar. We had the best meals at the Taberna del Alabardero hotel school on Calle Zaragoza - lunchtime menu del dia was absolutely the best value for money.

8.0

I really enjoyed my stay at the Hotel Alminar. the Hotel is located near all of Seville's major attraction, yet still offers a bit of privacy in a noisy part of Seville. The staff was great, I highly recommend this hotel. The room was clean, the bathroom spacious and the bed was comfortable.

9.8

Great Location beside Cathedral & Tapas Bars ! Reception very helpfull on directions and places to go.

9.5

I spent 3 nights at Alminar hotel in Feb. 2008. All staff members were very friendly and helpful, especially the manager Fransisco who was generously informative. His tips proved to be very valuable indeed. There is free coffee/tea service in the small but tasteful public area, and the first bottle of water in the minibar is also free. Excellent location and the rooms pleasant and tasteful. I highly recommend this hotel.

this property was excellent in terms of location, value and staff service. I picked it based on feedback that I'd read from travellers who had stayed at the hotel recently and in this case it was bang on. The extra amenities such as beverages and wi-fi access were a nice touch and very welcome.

6.8

We had to move rooms after one night. The first room (second floor) was good, the second room (ground floor) was poor. Hotel location and staff were very good.

9.6

Maria and Francisco at the front desk were marvelous, and it helped greatly that they were totally fluent in English. Wonderful location. All in all, a very nice experience, which we will highly recommend.

9.0

Excellent hotel, wonderful staff, great location.

7.7

Primarily tourists, with excellent access to all sites and the core of the city. It is a very small hotel located on a laneway les than a block from the Cathederal.Altough it is located in what appears to be an old building it is all new inside. Space is at a premium but well used. Rooms are tight but well organized with a very stylish bathroom. All items in room worked and staff was very helpful.

9.3

throughly enjoyed my staff at the hotel alminar. very central location. staff very friendly. if i do go back to seville will definitely stay there.

5.4

The hotel is located in a very noisy area as people use the street coming home from bars until 4AM on week-ends. The street level rooms are VERY noisy, can't sleep. Staff were extremely helpful, but wouldn't stay there again due to noise.

8.7

lovely hotel - great situation but would not suit people who expect grand public areas. Helpfull staff, quiet rooms, close to the main sights ( Giralda about 2 minute walk ),reasonable breakfast, good value for money. We will definitely go back.

8.8

The hotel is very near city centre, everything you want to see is few minutes walk. The employees are very nice and they have suggested us interesting places and event to see.

8.9

We can deffinitly recommend the Alimar. The staff was very nice and the rooms are small but in great shape. The location is right in the center of Sevilla, which has the downside that you hardly can get there by car. The only negative point that we saw, is that there is a contruction in the house across which was creating some noise. Go there!

9.8

Had a fabulous time in seville staying at the Alminar.staff could not have been more helpful and welcoming and we will definitely be returning in the future .A beautiful hotel in a very central location.Thank you so much Alminar

7.1

I would say that the staff was excellent. Their customer service skills are among the best of any place I have ever stayed. The room was comfortable, but the noise from the street and from other guests was somewhat bothersome. The location was good. I would stay here again.

9.8

Es un hotel realmente excelente en la relación costo beneficio. Excelente recepción y atención, excelente ubicación y muy agradable y familiar ambiente. La habitación sencilla es pequeña pero cómoda y suficiente, el baño es precioso y funcional. Sólo recomendaría ampliar un poco el espacio del comedor, que auqnue agradable resulta insuficiente y prácticamente "pegado" al elevador. Definitivamente volvería a hospedarme en este hotel.
