Abanico Sevilla  

I stayed two nights at the hotel Abanico with my son. The hotel is very pretty with its own patio inside. It made us feel like stepping into the old fairy tale.Our room was a big one and facing the Calle Aguilar which was the only bad thing about it; Calle Aguilar was quite busy one way street all through the night and also loudy drunken people used it on their way home in the middle of the night. So it was not so good for sleeping.As in many Spanish old towns it was quite a hard to find the hotel, and almost impossible to stop nearby for going to ask at the hotel where to park!The front door opened directly to the Calle Aguilar (the pavement was about 10 cm wide) so it was a little difficult to leave or enter the hotel safely. I wouldn't recommend the hotel for travellers with baby carriages! It was difficult enough with luggage.The hotel breakfast buffet was nice and the staff kind enough to charge us the lower price even though I had understood the procedure wrong with my poor Spanish!The location was ideal for walking to Giralda and the old town - actually you are there in the city centre when staying in the hotel Abanico.

Pros: The abanico had a lovely sevilla character and charm and was within easy walking distance of all the sites, restaurantsetc. it was also very good value for money.

Pros: Very nice hotel, excelent staff very helpfull, excelent location to the historic site, we diffently go back again
Cons: No
