This hostel was great! Especially for socializing! They offer free Sangria everyday from 8pm to 9pm and do free walking tours. The staff is also very knowledgeable of Seville and places to go out and eat. The showers were clean and the water heat and pressure was great--which means a lot when you've been traveling for a while. Really take advantage of the atmosphere and sit in the common area outdoors and chat up other people and exchange info.

The staff here are amazing, so friendly (multi lingual) and always ready to hook you up with the best parts of the city, not just the tourist experience. Probably the best hostel experience I've ever had.

A really cool hostel, and the garden courtyard is a great feature. Loved the one hour of free sangria and cheap bar. Most of the staff were exceptional. Overall an excellent hostel. Breakfast is fairly basic but standard for a hostel. Everything else is excellent. I Highly recommend this place.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff. A great place to stay because it is easy to meet people with free sangria in the garden each evening.

Really good hostel, seemed to have everything you would need - from a guitar to jam to a hammock on the roof terrace! Fun hostel, with great facilities, good wifi, and outdoor bar and garden area.

This was my first time at a hostel and the Garden backpacker left a very good impression. Lovely staff, the place was clean and had a great atmosphere. Useful advice on tours and activities - all staff well informed and eager to help. The garden courtyard offers great comfort and a great place to sit, relax, chat and play...

Great hostel. I'm blanking on the name of the Italian guy working the front desk but he was super helpful when I checked in. Nice garden in the back and a cool rooftop (which gets overlooked b/c of the garden). They organize events on most of the days, which are nice as well. Good location, pretty central within the city - easy to walk to the main tourist sites.

The atmosphere of the Garden Backpacker was great- lots of community activities and the free sangria was great! The area is a little confusing to get around, but its close to a lot of things so if you're good with a map I'd definitely recommend it! The staff was amazing and always offering to help with suggestions or directions.

Overall, excellent hostel. Lockers were quite small. It's a 10-15 minute walk to most of the major sites. The staff were very helpful and kind. They charge 1 euro to leave your luggage after checkout, which is a bit silly... but oh well.

Great hostel, rooftop area a nice touch, kitchen and common areas were great. A bit of a walk to the old town and interesting areas, but might be worth it compared to the other hostels? Free Sangria was great, staff were really nice and helpful. Only complaint was my locker door was very easy to remove, even when locked!

Probably one of the best hostels I have been at. Too bad it was only for 1 night. The one thing that I wish was different was the bathroom situation. Sort of a scavenger hunt for open bathrooms. Really liked it and everyone (especially Valentina) was super helpful. Plus, a FREE sangria!

Great spot! The location is very good, the beds are comfy, and the drink specials and free sangria at the bar are awesome! My friend and I had a blast in Seville.

Great atmosphere, very friendly, people hang around the free sangia in the evenings not only for free drinks but great company. One person in our group had a misplaced passport issue and Valentina provided incredible attention and service until it was recovered. Sheis the BEST staffer ever, can't thank her enough! We are returning in a few days and can't wait to be back!
