Hotels near Raccon, Seville

My wife and I spent three nights at this hotel as part of a tour of Andalusia. It is a very historic hotel comprising of a collection of mansions acquired over many years and subsequently converted into an hotel. Consequently it seems to be a bit of a rabbit warren and you can easily forget how to locate your room from the main entrance. Many of the internal features had a Roman villa feel and to access our room we had to go through a tunnel which separated one part of the hotel from the other. Our room was comfortable and provided all amenities, although no tea/coffee making facilities but was quite dark due to the proximity of other buildings in this historic area. We also experiened noise from a lane beneath our window which was a cut through used by other tourists/locals. Please note this hitel does not have a restaurant for dinner but there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Breakfast was included and car parking was available at a 24 hour car park for circa €25 per day. The main attractions including the Alcazar and the Cathedral were a relatively short walk away and the Plaza de Espana was walkable but slightly further.

The location and value of this hotel was notably better than many competitive properties in Sevilla. Perhaps the most impressive was the service at reception. The gentlemen on the front desk really were gentlemen and did everything to ensure a smooth check-in. It was all very professional and in a beautiful reception area that was light, bright, nicely decorated and comfortable. A 4* lobby for sure. They had managed to accommodate our wishes to be on or above the 3rd floor along with our friends' room close by. However, we did feel that the room was a little dated although large and comfortable. We actually were attending a photo shoot the next day so light was an issue for us and the room had only a small window and 'cold' LED bulbs in the light fittings - 'warm' LED lights would have been much cosier. For us, we really needed natural light and so requested that we move to another room. The hotel was full but the lovely reception staff accommodated us in a beautiful room from the next morning, where we were far more comfortable and able to prepare for our day. They pulled out all the stops to ensure the room was clean and ready from early morning. We were very grateful and on that basis, we will definitely stay here again as we travel to Sevilla a lot. Special thanks go to Dario, Alajambro and David - and I think at the last minute, I may have met another front desk gentleman but I didn't get his name! All - in all, a quiet, reserved, comfortable hotel in a super location. Thank you Pasaela Hotel - we will be back!

Very good location. Close to the major sites. Difficult to find since it is in a set of alleyways. You cannot drive a car here, so if you have a vehicle, research parking first. The nearest underground lot at Jardine Murillo was full, so we found the San Bernardo Parking Lot, but it was a half-mile walk dragging luggage over cobblestones. This was not a deal-breaker; I mention it to be aware. The hotel was fine, the staff were rather cool and not too very friendly, but they were helpful enough. The room was fine and our room faced the alley with the outdoor restaurant, so we heard the noise until they closed, which was early enough. The rooftop terrace has a spectacular view of the cathedral and the Giralda tower, but the bar is not open. There is also no dinner at the hotel, but there are so many places nearby. The best thing is the location. It's pretty interesting staying in these medieval allies. The Real Alcazar palace is a must-see and you can spend all day there and still not see it all. The gardens are wonderful. The cathedral is huge and different from any that I have seen prior. And of course, you must walk up the 37 ramps of the Giralda tower. Take a stroll down to the river. Even the bull ring is nearby.

A great ”Quirky ” hotel in a very central location. Set amonst little back streets with lacal tapas bars and quiet squares a few hundred metres away. Large rooms with air con which was needed in early July and the beds were large and comfy. Breakfast was self service with plenty of choice. We loved eating outside on the rooftop and also liked the suntrap option for an afternoon siesta. Staff were polite and friendly and always happy to help. If(When) we return i will look to come back here.

Great hotel - perfect for a solo stay! I was in the Premium Standard, which included two little tub chairs, a king bed (two singles pushed together but they didn't move!) and a huge bathroom with a great shower, bidet and two sinks. The location is great, 10 mins away from the Giralda and central city, and opposite you have a great department store with a supermarket underneath as well as Aldi on the other side - no more than 30 seconds, if that! I opted not to include breakfast, and there are no shortage of options in the locality. There are also a ton of fast food eateries - McDonalds, Burger King and Taco Bell are around the corner if you need an emergency feed. The room was spacious, and came with a kettle - but no coffee sachets, only tea. The bed wasn't as comfy as other hotels, however it was by no means uncomfortable. The pillows were soft, and the room in general was lovely and well decorated. The wardrobe had a lot of hangers - a plus - but there was no iron. The window opened (a big deal for me!) and I was overlooking a side street. I could see the top of the bell tower from my room, so that was nice! The cleaning staff were really friendly, and did a great job day after day - lovely team all round. There is no complimentary water, you have to pay for the ones in the mini fridge which, given it was late spring/early summer and was very hot, I thought was an oversight. One of the reasons this is getting 4/5 rather than 5/5 is that the room is not sound proof - I could hear everything going on in the other room adjacent as well as all the traffic from the corridor. Which also means they could probably hear what I was doing in mine too - worth bearing in mind if you play music or have the TV on loud! If you're looking for total quiet, this might not be the right place as evenings start late in Seville and go on until at least 11pm, so people come back to the hotel around midnight. Overall, I would come back - I loved it! Location is 5*, and if you're travelling alone as a woman, this hotel is safe and in a busy area on a main(ish) street. I felt absolutely safe the whole time in the city and around the hotel. Definitely worth the cost!

My husband and I spent 5 nights in Hotel Monte Carmelo and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this hotel. The front desk staff was extremely helpful with recommending restaurants, directions to sites, and arranging a tour for us to Cordoba. Also, the members of the wait staff in the breakfast area were friendly and very attentive to the presentation of the breakfast items. The hotel is around the corner from a lovely pedestrian mall and is a short and pleasant walk to the bridge that is crossed to arrive at the main area of downtown Seville. The room was a good size and nicely decorated. We would definitely stay here again on a return trip to Seville!

This is a very large hotel some 2km from the centre, I chose this especially as I wanted to be out of the tourist centre. My room was quite large, very clean, with a terrace and view over the city and gardens. There is a lovely pool but limited opening hours and smoking is permitted in ALL areas around the pool which may mean that, if you hate smoke, there will be nowhere to sit and relax. Pool towels require a 10euros refundable deposit. Most of the staff are super friendly and helpful, the Reception staff particularly so . The Breakfast choice is excellent BUT the room is large and incredibly noisy after about the first half an hour or so, dinner is served in the same room but is slightly less noisy. All are buffet meals, the food is fresh with a good choice BUT the main dishes are mostly a bit overcooked and rather bland, the desserts are a bit boring and there is minimal dessert choice for those with food allergies and intolerances. The chef is very good at ensuring there is something available in that case but the choice can feel extremely limited if staying for several days. There is a separate paying restaurant with a very limited choice if one has food intolerances, the food is a bit tastier though I found the understanding of problems less good. I really disliked the lack of information in the room and did not realise that there is a QR Code hidden somewhere in the room, no one told me on arrival and when I did use it it didn't work, not every phone has the ability to scan. There is a Tourist Desk and trips can be booked there, several trips start from the hotel. There is a bus stop a couple of minutes walk from the hotel which ends near the Plaza España. On balance I would recommend a superior room for the view and space. Bed really comfortable with a choice of firm or softer pillows.Air conditioning was quiet and worked well. Detection monitor ( smoke?) above bed flashed red all night which was really annoying. Antonio in the restaurant is an outstanding star along with the Head Chef. The Pool Bar and the Paying Restaurant each had one member of staff that stood out as being a long way from super. It is such a shame as the the latter really ruined a day for me. I am used to frequently staying in hotels, sometimes for long periods, and am fairly tolerant so it takes a lot for me to react to a bad experience. Would I stay there again, yes but would not do half board.

This was a little new to us, after booking online we got some pass codes that allowed entry to the building then to key box for apartment. There are no staff although there is an intercom to call staff if required. The apartment was clean and well equipped,the views are nothing special but we wasn’t there for views. It was our touring base. The only noise we heard was people in next apartment moving tables /beds ,sound carried. I think overall the passcode system worked and could well be the future of economy apartments. We would use again when in the area.

The hotel is very expensive and every little thing must me paid extra: you want to park you car? You pay. You want some water in your room? You pay. You want to have breakfast? You pay. You want to check out 30minutes later? You pay. There is not much clean (I have some beer in my room on the first day, on the fourth day the empty glass was still on the table), and is also very noisy, there is no insonorization between rooms. I’ve even wake at the middle of the first night thinking someone entered my room, and it was my neighbour enter his room. We listen every step, every door, and even some conversations between rooms! Overwall, it could be a better hotel if staff were nicer, but they must learn lots of things from some premium hotels they willing (or wishing!) to be.

We stayed at this hotel in the covid 19 pandemic so we were unable to use all of their facilities We were given a warm welcome when we arrived. Check in was quick and as they were unable to us their restaurant we were given a breakfast pack to put in the fridge in the room. Check out was quick and efficient. Due to the problems which were out of their control we had a pleasant night in a very comfortable room.
