Located just outside the historical center, the Garden Backpacker offers a great atmosphere to backpackers from all over the world! Fredrico greeted us at 6am, and even switched his schedule around to make sure we could go back to bed for a few hours... We definitely appreciated going back to bed after a long overnight bus! Breakfast was served from... More

The Tapas tour with Philippo was amazing. Anyone going to The Garden Backpacker should do the Tapas tour, but make sure not to eat before because you need to taste everything. The Tapas tour brings you to three different bars to taste drinks and Tapas from the region, its a great way to taste different things. The hostel is great,... More

I stayed here twice and loved it. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, and they make it easy to sign up for various activities (tapas tour, pub crawl, risotto night etc.) so as a solo traveller it was a great place to meet people. The building is really cool, with a rooftop terrace to dry your washing or lie... More

I stayed here for 3 nights it was clean and the breakfast set you up for the day. The staff were very helpful and friendly and if you're travelling alone its worth going on the walking tour. The lounge is an ideal place to meet others and as I was travelling alone the lounge made it easier to see some... More

This is a nice hostel with a really great garden and bar. All the staff who work here seem to be Italian and were really friendly! My room was a 4-bed dorm and was a little bit small, but reasonable enough. Bathroom facilities were pretty good and the free sangria for an hour in the evening was great :-) Seville... More

This place is fantastic if you are a solo traveller. I've been backpacking for a year and this place was almost as good as hostels in South America. In Europe it's really hard to make connections with other travelers but this hostel had so many organized events and really helpful fun staff so it made my stay in Seville amazeballs.... More
