The building has been restored to be adapted to the particular necessities of a small hotel of only 12 rooms in which attention to detail is a priority in order to offer the guests a cozy space in the very heart of Seville, just 50 metres from the Cathedral and its minaret ( or alminar ), the Giralda, true symbol of the capital of Andalucía.
The Santa Cruz district ( old Jewish Quarter ) lies only 5 minutes walk from the hotel and offers the true flavour of the old Seville with its narrow and winding streets, its gardens, patios and squares with orange-trees. There the visitor can approach the Flamenco dancing and singing at Los Gallos, Plaza de Sta. Cruz, 27. Also interesting are La Carbonería and El Tamboril with live music on week-ends.
For those who love relaxation in an exceptional setting, the Arab Baths ( Aire de Sevilla ) offer their services only 5 minutes walk from the hotel.
Also nearby, the Arenal district, gives the visitor a different scope of the city with its streets facing the River Guadalquivir and its world-famous Bullring, La Plaza de Toros de La Real Maestranza de Caballerías de Sevilla. Another good Flamenco show at El Arenal, Calle Rodo, 7.
The shopping is also easy from the hotel. Both the traditional shops of the historical centre or Calle Sierpes and the newly developed commercial streets like Tetuán or O´Donnell where Zara, Mango, H&M and the type are placed.

Location, room, room rate, and service. Location is one of best in Sevilla old town. Room and service were outstanding. Easy walk to all key destinations. Best to take a taxi there. If you drive, must park car some distance away, then easiest to take taxi if lots of luggage. Other than a small breakfast room this hotel just offers an outstanding hotel room. |

The hotel location is excellent. We could walk to all sites we had targeted which was quite a few (from the old city center, to the river, to the bull ring, to flamenco and more). The staff was very helpful and accomodating (directions, where to buy stamps, called a taxi for us). |

The staff were fantastic, were warm and friendly and had wonderful recommendations. Our room was cleaned beautifully every day. The bathroom was excellent. We felt entirely happy, safe and comfortable and the environment was tasteful and carefully maintained. The room was a little on the small side but we had everything we needed. The only thing we could have done with was a chest of drawers. As it was in the city, the noise outside meant we had to keep the windows closed and it was difficult to turn the heating/aircon down. The breakfast room was rather small but this didn't bother us on the occasions we used it. |

It is in a good location and the staff were very friendly and very helpful The room is very small and somewhat sparse (one towel, no washcloth); and the shower door leaked on the floor. The internet access is only in the small lobby area and is very slow. |

Hotel Alminar is a clean, small hotel with good facilities like Wifi Internet access or free soft drinks an coffee. It's in the heart of the city of Sevilla. However it's easily reachable and good to find. The staff is very helpful. The hotel is a bit too expensive. 120 € for a double room per night (excluding breakfast) is too much. Even the room is clean, but not special at all. |

You cannot ask for a better location. The hotel is pretty and modern. The room was spotless. They were extreemly accomodating. I especially like the staff. I met 3 staff members and they all were outstanding. They were very responsive to my e-mails about getting me directions to their hotel from the bus station. They were very helpful finding us a restaurant and outlining our sightseeing plan. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone. |

The owner Franciso is only part of what makes this a fabulous property. Located half a block from the Seville Cathedral (taxi can't take you right to the door) is just one of the best things about the hotel. The rooms are modern and clean. Fridge in the room is stocked with water and soft drinks at no extra charge. Breakfast is available and more than adequate (fridge is always open and stocked). The hands one approach of the manage only enhanced our visit to the Alminar. He was so willing to stop and chat, give insight into the city and help with any suggestions about touring. He even recommended the Flamenco show (located right next door to the hotel) which was great value. We can\t say enough about the hotel - FABULOUS! |

The friendliness of the staff; the availability of breakfast albeit an extra 6 euros; coffee or tea at any time of the day, closeness to the centre of Seville. |

What I like most about the hotel is that all the staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. They are willing to give guests tips and information which normally only local people have. Even when they were busy, they tried to take a few minutes to talk friendly to guests. During my stay I really enjoyed talking with the staff when I had a breakfast. That made me feel like I was not staying in a hotel but with a friend or a family! The room is chic and neat, very comfortable. The location is perfect. I would definitely stay there again. |

The staff was fantastic - savvy, friendly, and cool. We also loved the location - close to everything but on a quiet sreet. The view from our room was pretty bad (looked onto a building being renovated), but that will change as the other building gets fixed. Also, the WIFI service was flaky. |
