The Hostelz.com Review
Triana Backpackers is a very charming hostel that is nicely located near the bus station and easily accessible by foot or bus to surrounding areas.

The Location

The hostel is located near the bus station and the bus stop is nearby. Triana Backpackers is within walking distance to the Guadalquivir River, the Giralda Tower, Seville Cathedral, and Torre del Oro.

Rooms and Bathrooms

The rooms are spacious. Room options include either a two- or three-bunk room or a full-sized bedroom. There is an air conditioner with remote control in the room. There are several bathrooms.

Common Spaces

This is a subdued but social hostel. The kitchen and three computers are located upstairs, as well as a reading area next to the computers. There is also cool music to listen to while you wait to get online. There is a sitting area that is very Moroccan if not bohemian. The rooftop is a nice spot to unwind and chill.

Summary

We only stayed here for one night, but we like the place and staff. The food near the river is very pricey, but you pay for the view of Seville. It is a terrific location to catch the early morning bus to Portugal.

5 Excellent
This hostel was hands down one of, if not the, nicest hostels I stayed in during a nine-week backpacking trip. Although it is located on the opposite side of the river from most of the attractions and landmarks, they are all within easy walking distance. The comfortable beds, small rooms, overall cleanliness, free internet, and friendly staff made this a great choice if you need a hostel in Sevilla. I wish I were back there daily!

5 A beautiful hostel just across the river, full of tiles and open spaces. It's clean and friendly with free Wi-Fi and computer access and a well stocked kitchen. There is also a lounge and a rooftop terrace which is being redone this year. An excellent hostel!

5 This was by far the best hostel we stayed in during our two months backpacking around Europe. They live up to everything they claim, free breakfast (including yummy little muffins), free internet, a big tv room fully stocked with English and Spanish DVDs, a great kitchen, clean bathrooms with ample hot water. You only shared your bathroom with one other room, and the rooms are for two people each, so that's one bathroom for only four people. The staff/owners were lovely, they went out of their way to help you in any way possible, and were happy to chat with the guests. There was a communal lounge/dining/internet area where all the guests hung out, so everyone got to share travel stories and arrange to go out for tapas and flamenco nights. The roof terrace was lovely (but very hot in the day in summer!), with tables and chairs, and also clothes lines if you do your own washing. The ambience, design, and layout of this hostel was wonderful, very cool and breezy for hot summers days. Highly recommended.
