Home2Book Amelia’s Pottery, Triana

Hotel Description

You know what really struck me about Home2Book Amelia’s Pottery when I first walked in? The place actually feels like it belongs in Triana — and I mean that in the best way possible. This isn’t some generic hotel chain that could be anywhere in the world. The whole pottery theme makes perfect sense when you’re literally in the heart of Seville’s ceramic district, where you can still hear the hum of working kilns if you listen carefully in the early morning.

The location is honestly brilliant if you want to experience authentic Seville without the tourist crowds breathing down your neck. You’re right across the river from the cathedral and Alcázar, but here in Triana it’s like you’re in a completely different city — one where locals still hang laundry from wrought-iron balconies and old men play dominoes in the plaza. I loved walking down Calle Betis in the evening (it’s maybe a five-minute stroll) to watch the sunset paint the Giralda tower golden while sipping a beer at one of the riverside bars. The Puente de Triana is right there too, so getting to the main sights is actually easier than staying in the touristy Santa Cruz neighborhood, where you’d be fighting crowds just to leave your hotel.

What really won me over, though, were the small details that show someone actually thought about what travelers need. The rooms have this warm, earthy feel that echoes the pottery workshops scattered throughout the neighborhood — I’m talking hand-painted tiles and rich terracotta colors that somehow make the space feel bigger than it is. The kitchenette situation is legit too, which matters when you want to grab fresh ingredients from the Mercado de Triana (seriously, their fish counter is incredible) and make breakfast without paying hotel restaurant prices. Parking was surprisingly painless — they’ve got a deal with a nearby garage, and honestly, in this part of Seville, that’s worth its weight in gold. The staff seemed to actually know the neighborhood; when I asked about flamenco, they didn’t just point me to some touristy tablao but mentioned this tiny bar where locals go on Thursday nights. Check-in was smooth, none of that awkward hovering around the lobby waiting for your room to be ready. The whole operation feels well-run without being stuffy — like staying with friends who have their act together. At 8.2 rating, it’s not perfect, but the imperfections feel human rather than neglectful. Sometimes the Wi-Fi gets a bit sluggish, and you might hear your neighbors if they’re really going at it, but honestly? That’s just old-world charm mixed with thin European walls. For the price point and the experience of actually living in Triana rather than just visiting Seville, it’s a solid choice.

Reviews

• Ivan from Croatia – 2 October 2024 (7/10)

  The apartment was very nicely decorated. It had everything we needed, and the location was good.
  
  What could be improved: The apartment should have been cleaner. There was a strange smell from the closet. The location in the building is very uncomfortable because if you open any window, everyone in the building can see inside your apartment.

• Ahmad from Canada – 6 May 2025 (9/10)

  The home was beautiful located in an amazing area. The home being in the ground floor helped significantly
  
  What could be improved: Nothing.

• Lisa from Australia – 29 April 2025 (6/10)

  The location
  
  What could be improved: The musty stale smell, we needed to run the dehumidifier for hours to make it smell better.
  The shower is very small

• Teresa from Spain – 29 January 2025 (9/10)

  Estupenda estancia en Home2Book Amelia's Pottery. Ubicación en el encantador barrio de Triana. El apartamento está prácticamente nuevo, muy cómodo y completamente equipado. Sin duda, una excelente opción para disfrutar de Sevilla.

• Yamile from Spain – 25 June 2024 (8/10)

  La decoración y el confort. Estaba todo cuidado y nuevo. Además el aire acondicionado estaba genial dado el calor que hacía en esos días en Sevilla, aunque ya de por si es bastante fresco.
  
  What could be improved: El sillón es bastante incómodo. Tuvimos la mala suerte que estaban haciendo obras al lado y la verdad que desde la habitación se oye todo.

• Sergio from Spain – 7 May 2024 (7/10)

  Muy limpio, bonito y bien ubicado. Tranquilo

• Victoria from Austria – 25 October 2023 (8/10)

  Unmittelbar in der Nähe haben wir einen kostenlosen Parkplatz ergattert. Die Ausstattung ist ok. Zutritt ein wenig eigenartig. Gott sei Dank war die Reinigungsdame anwesend.
  
  What could be improved: Trotz der Fenster alles sehr düster.

• Anabel from Spain – 20 May 2025 (9/10)

  La decoración y la ubicación.
  
  What could be improved: Un poco de humedad en el interior y el baño no estaba limpio de todo.

• Luise from Spain – 8 January 2025 (8/10)

  Apartamento bonito y bien ubicado
  
  What could be improved: Mucha humedad y pocos utensilios de cocina

• Noelia from Spain – 20 November 2024 (8/10)

  El apartamento está bastante bien conservado y limpio, y de menaje también va bastante bien
  
  What could be improved: Al ser un bajo y dar a un patio de vecinos, todas las ventanas deberían tener cortinas para preservar un poco la intimidad
