I can't really complain about anything with this hostel! For the price I paid, it was perfect! The staff were great! Even when we had bus troubles getting to Sevilla and didn't check in until 5 in the morning. They were super nice and even offered us a beer because we had such an awful night. The only thing may be that there were only 3 bathrooms (each with 2 showers) for the entire hostel so in the morning it was a little hectic. Other than that, it was great! A great place to meet people.

This was the nicest hostel I've ever stayed in. The amenities were very well kept, and the staff was extremely attentive. The hostel activities were diverse and actually quite active and the breakfast was standard, but nicely presented. Although it was a bit farther from the main tourist areas than the Sevilla Inn hostel, it was a much nicer hostel experience. If you're staying for a longer period of time, choose Garden. Lockers were included too with no extra security deposit. Free sangria!

Awesome staff!! Exceptionally kind, friendly and helpful. Individual lockers a bit small, just enough to keep valuable items.

we enjoyed our stay at the garden backpacker, especially the free sangria in the evenings. however, we found that our rooms were very humid which was not pleasant. our towels and handwashed clothing never dried.

really great place very friendly staff. The curly haired lady who works afternoons seemed so genuinely happy to help it made me happy. Decent breakfast make your own crepes always a great option. The walking tours are really great Alice and Sam really know there stuff. I'm not usually interested in tours but Im really glad I took that opportunity. I would definitely stay at this hostel again.

For somewhere that was just ranked in the top ten of hostels, I was very disappointed. So many kitchen appliances didn't work, the toilets didn't always flush, the hot water didn't always last and they control the temperature for bedrooms centrally so it was either freezing cold or boiling hot.

The location of this hostel is about 10-15 mins walk from the central train station. Not so much of a problem locating this place. I was greeted by Daniel, a very friendly guy. I shared the room with another girl, and was fortunate she's very nice room mate too. Wifi's a bit off in the room but works perfectly fine if you're near the reception area (or above it). I truly appreciate the free usage of computers and the free breakfast was good too. I'll definitely return! :)

Great staff. Take their time to answer your question, open for small talk. Just a bunch of fun guys who enjoy working there. Helped me also retrieving my headphones which I forgot in the hostel and had to be sent through international post back to The Netherlands. Kitchen has all you need, breakfast is simple but good. Free Sangria in the evening, the Paella that Ana makes is delicious, drinks at the bar are so cheap. Beds (12dorm) and bathroom is alright. Good place to meet people, recommended!

The hostel and staff were amazing! We arrived and were starving they immediately told us a wonderful place to go eat and then guided us in the direction of where to go out at night. The hostel offered activities for us and allowed us to leave our bags there during the day since our flight was at night. We also did a tour through the hostel which was a great way to see the city. Would recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Seville!

The staff was very helpful when we were trying to plan our short trip in Sevilla, always looking for the best deals and giving us solid recommendations.

The community at The Garden Backpacker was great. The outdoor space really brings people together so it's very easy to meet other travelers, and to relax. The rooms were very clean, and the beds comfortable. Additionally, the staff was so kind and accommodating...they made me never want to leave!
