“I'm in Love”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 6, 2013

Absolutely adore this hotel. The location couldn't be better - mere minutes walking from shops, bars, cafes, the cathedral and alcazar and the Murillo Gardens. The rooms were clean and cute - bathroom space very generous. What I really love about this hotel is all the extras - free wifi throughout (which works), water on every floor and in your room, nice toiletries (more than most hotels), free bikes, the rooftop, the jacuzzi, included breakfast.

The staff is also incredible. I had planned my trip rather last minute and hadn't had the time to research how to get everywhere I wanted to go. The front desk staff helped me with train schedules and how to get to the station and back and also made terrific recommendations on what to see and do in Seville as well as Cordoba and Granada. They also had wonderful recos for where to eat. I can't say enough good things about the staff.

I didn't find it all that hard to find. The taxi drops you off in a little square and you go right and keep walking around till you reach the hotel on the left. I love that it is quiet and close to shops. We stayed in casa 27 and it was tucked away from the courtyard and elevator and was very nice.

I found the breakfast perfectly fine. Lots of different breads, meats, cheeses. They had yogurt, cereal, hard boiled and fried eggs as well as a few other hot plates. They also had many packaged choices like pastries and donuts. The highlight was certainly the fresh squeezed orange juice.

Seville is lovely as is the El Rey Moro - we will be back!

“True Boutique Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 4, 2013

Stayed last week for two nights & think it's a very cute boutique hotel with lots of character and charm. We stayed in Casa 29 on the rooftop, it's a very pretty room with spacious bathroom, small hallway with gorgeous furniture and a reasonable sized double room. If you're over 6ft you may find the ceilings a bit low but it wasn't an issue for me. The bed was soft & appeared to have a dip in the middle (could be two beds pushed together) but we were so exhausted after walking the beautiful areas nearby that it didn't bother us. That said there is a fair amount of noise during the night with local bar deliveries, bin collections etc so light sleepers be warned - you will be awoken but that's not the hotel's fault. The bathroom toiletries were plentiful & replenished each day; the free cold water bottles on every floor were a nice touch.and it's a short, meandering walk to the cathedral/alcazabar. The hotel is in a very narrow street but that just adds to the charm & sense of romance in the historic Barrio Santa Cruz. The free bikes are a bonus, the central terrace very charming and overall the hotel is really good value for location etc. Our only problem was with the wifi which continuously dropped after a couple of minutes BUT considering the beauty outside the room I wouldn't let that put me off!

“Good hotel in a charming area”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 3, 2013

The hotel is tucked away down a very narrow street. The receptionist was very helpful and efficient. One then walks through to the lovely courtyard and up the stairs to the rooms which open out onto the balcony. The room was attractive with Moorish furniture and tiles and the bathroom was more than adequate with lots of items such as sewing and dental kits, they seem to have thought of every thing. Every thing is fresh and clean. In the library there is a computer and bottles of free water in a small fridge.

Star of the breakfast is the orange juice which is squeezed before your eyes. The selection for continental breakfast was good with cooked meats and cheese, fruit salad and a variety of baked goods, the almond cake is particularly delicious. Coffee is from a machine but is strong and you can top it up with hot milk.

We ate in the restaurant in the evening and although it lacked atmosphere the food was delicious and reasonably priced.

Room Tip: Casa 14 seems to be the only room which doesn't have a table and chairs outside.

“Comfortable Boutique”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed March 1, 2013

Looking for a convenient, comfortable, and very clean accommodation with an authentic Spanish feel, than the El Rey Moro should be a location you consider. Located ideally for walking to all the main attractions around the center of Seville the hotel is nestled on a street reminiscent of old Europe. We choose to take a cab from the airport (recommended). The street where the hotel is located is too narrow for the auto traffic so it’s a short pleasant walk from where the cab drops you off. We had room 25 on the second floor facing the center courtyard. The courtyard has a warm comfortable feel more reminiscent of a home than a hotel.
Our room was larger than expected with a beautiful updated bathroom- really hard to beat for the price.
The Hotel location allows for lots of spontaneous activity because you can walk to anywhere then return and change or rest between venues without a lot of effort.
The desk managers are both cooperative and helpful with suggestions about the best local flamenco and some restaurants.
Breakfast can be included in your package or added per day depending on your arrangement. The restaurant is located in the lower level. Seville has lots to offer just outside your door so If you can, I suggest discovering the little cafés in the area for a quick stop in the morning. The breakfast served at the hotel is very basic and lots of items are packaged goods.

Room Tip: If you are a light sleeper, rooms facing the inner courtyard are quieter. The south facing courtyard...
