88%Samay Sevilla Hostel

one of the best hostels we have stayed in. it was very clean and felt like a hotel. the roof terrace must be awesome in warm weather.

There was a creepy guy staying up on the terrace who stayed in the hostel for a few nights but then checked out and was living on the roof!! He harassed both my girlfriends and mumbled some stuff to me. We told the staff twice and they still did not get rid of him so they deserve this review.... more There was a creepy guy staying up on the terrace who stayed in the hostel for a few nights but then checked out and was living on the roof!!

I can't say much else about the place because having some weirdo around kind of killed it.close

Really liked this hostel. Well situated just on the out skirts of the city. Walking distance to everything as well as the bus terminal and trains. Very clean and tidy and pretty flash too.

the hostel itself was very good, although it would benefit from a bigger communal area (apart from the amazing terrace) and breakfast. kitchen and terrace were great spaces. if you want something in the heart of the city then this isn't the place, but it is quite close to many of the attractions... more the hostel itself was very good, although it would benefit from a bigger communal area (apart from the amazing terrace) and breakfast. kitchen and terrace were great spaces. if you want something in the heart of the city then this isn't the place, but it is quite close to many of the attractions and easy to reach. a really comfortable stay.close

We had problem only with hot water. Sometimes was a little bit cold and then hot. But the rest was everything perfect. It's like a hotel hospitality. Very good!!!

Had a great time here, the staff are wonderful, helpful, and speak very good English as well as Spanish. The mattresses were thick and comfortable, and the shower was nice and hot. Will definitely consider staying here again next time I'm in Seville!

Over all, this was a great hostel. Although a bit of a walk from the station, the directions are great and its really only two streets. The kitchen was great and the computers were really nice, if you get a chance, check out the rooftop terrace, nice.

Great roof terrace for enjoying the sunshine over breakfast and a cup of tea (there is a communal kitchen.)close

Very nice, if not slightly sterile, hostel. However, I prefer sterile and clean over mangey anyday. Staff were nice enough and the place was surrounded by restaurants and bars which helped.

Location is very good, can walk to the famous sight in the city. The staff is nice and helpful. The bathroom in 4 female dorm is big. There are 3 computers for usage and there is also a time limitation, so do not need to wait so long.

The room we stayed in has got bed bugs! Myself and my boyfriend are covered in bites. We stayed in room 3 on the first floor and we both think you shouldn't rent out this room to guests!! The rest of the hostel was fine but cleanliness was very very poor after we found out we had bed bugs!

The place is nice, new and clean. Security is great. The only problem is that if it's not nice enough outside to sit on the rooftop terrace, it's really difficult to meet people.

This is one of the cleanest and most organised places I've ever stayed in. The location is fantastic, you are a ten minute walk from The Cathedral, The Alcazar or Plaza de Espana. I was really ill at one point and the staff were brilliant. Thank you Samay.

It seems that security is priority at the hotel. Nice kitchen and very specious bathrooms in both dorms I steyd. And, of course, on top of all above- a fantactic rooftop for gathering or seclusion.
