About

Hotel Simon

Hotel Simon occupies a classic Sevillian townhouse in the Old Town, just off Garcia De Vinuesa. Guests consistently praise the building's character: ceramic tiles, a quiet courtyard, and public areas that feel like a grand family home rather than a standard hotel. With 40 rooms, the scale stays intimate.

The location is the standout – a two-minute walk to the cathedral, close to the Alcázar, and surrounded by tapas bars and local shops. The hotel is pet-free and smoke-free throughout, with a 24-hour reception and tour assistance for exploring the city.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable Old Town location — A two-minute walk to the cathedral, with the Alcázar and old town sites close by. The bullring is at the end of the street.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • 1-star rating may mislead — Several guests note the hotel feels better than its official one-star rating, but it still lacks some modern extras like TVs and minibars in rooms.
  • Some rooms vary in condition — While many rooms are charming, one guest reported a third bed in a sitting room with worn furniture and a non-functioning air conditioner.
  • No pets allowed — Despite the hotel being pet-friendly according to the description, the official policy explicitly states pets are not allowed.

“The location was unbeatable, set in lovely surroundings.”

“I don't understand why Hotel Simon only has 1 star – it's beautiful, clean, quiet, and efficient. The bathroom was perfectly adequate, the air conditioning worked, and there were three tapas bars and a place like Betty's between the hotel and the cathedral (50m). No TV or mini bar, which was fine for us.”

8.6Verified guest

“Excellent location near the cathedral, making it easy to explore the area.”

8.6Verified guest

“We loved our room – spacious, with walls decorated with various tiles that made it charming, romantic, and exotic. The toilet was spacious and the bedding had a romantic design. However, the third bed was in the sitting room and the air conditioner wasn't working, so that third person had no AC and worn-out furniture. The courtyard is very nice and the hotel has a charming Moorish style giving traditional ambiance. It's a few steps from the cathedral, the Alcázar, and the old town, and rates are reasonable for the location.”

“The hotel was quiet, clean, and very near the town, with excellent views of the castle and the town.”

“It's designed like a big house with guest rooms, feels kind of homey.”
