El Rincon De Las Descalzas

Excellently situated in the center of Carmona

Quirky very old property in the heart of this ancient town. Individual well appointed rooms in this lovely old building. Very good continental breakfast. No dedicated parking but safe public parking nearby. Reception closed from 2- 4.00 pm but given instructions for access for early check-in and key for the room.

Lovely old palacio in the middle of old Carmona. Quiet apart from the bells occasionally. Lovely patio areas. Buffet breakfast very adequate with fresh bread and topping options. Friendly efficient service. Very good value.

Can not fault the accommodation. Room suited our needs. Hotel location was superb for exploring the town and surrounding areas

no parking spot

Beautiful hotel. I had self check in and the entrance was cluttered...at first I had difficulty figuring out where and which door I was supposed to use to enter the hotel. Luckily with prior communication through WhatsApp, I re-examine the photo and finally figured it out. The hotel is gorgeous. Decor, quiet, beautiful location. I parked and had to walk about 10 minutes back to the hotel. Lots of unusual signage on the streets about parking... Proceed with caution.

It was a beautiful building but the staff didn’t speak English! Even a word that made it difficult to communicate

Fantastic traditional building inside and out. Staff were great. Absolutely loved the decor in the room. Place was immaculately clean. I witnessed constant floor mopping everywhere. Two things that were a bit lacking and didn’t need to be. Bedside wall lamp had no bulb and was not secured to the wall. Breakfast which was extra clean cost ,was a bread role , either toasted or not. Plenty of jams etc to go with. A single selection of bread role lacks a little imagination even if you haven’t a kitchen facility. Fruit / cereal / cheese / yoghurt might be just as easy and expand choices and dietary requirements?

Quaint hotel secretly tucked away down a side street - little hidden gem! Beautiful on the inside!

I like the ambience

Quaint older hotel, a former large residence. Nice place but many other options are available.

A quaint hotel in the centre of the historic district. Extensive buffet breakfast available. Everything is in easy walking distance, even the necropolis. Lots of good tapas bars nearby. The hotel is not easy to find but we found car parking nearby.

Carmona is a great place for a quiet long weekend to get away from it all. For a couple winter-battered Brits it was just the ticket -- long lunches sitting outside in the town square, leisurely ambles through the scenic lanes, and watching the resident storks with their fledgelings. Like Carmona itself, it's brimming with history, and peaceful and doesn't stint on comfort. Our room was light-filled and spacious, with double doors opening onto a small balcony overlooking an interior courtyard, with views onto the lovely church tower and adjacent convent. Everything you'd want to explore

Local staff was very helpful, recommending a good local restaurant for dinner.

Both our rooms were completely interior, and the en-suites were actually just behind partitions so the rooms smelt of damp, toilets, drains, showers. Parking is almost impossible - the staff offered no solutions. I reserved three nights but had to leave after two nights because of a family emergency - the hotel insisted I paid for three nights anyway. My companion then moved to Alcazar de la Reina 200m away and said it was wonderful...

Great little place to stay right in the heart of Carmona, Spain.

No privacy in the bathroom-only swinging doors, awful pillows, and smelled like cigarette smoke.

What a charming little hotel in one of our favorite towns in Spain! Small, intimate, quiet. Rocio was a very pleasant employee (she needs to give Carmen a couple of lessons in how to be nice to customers). The little courtyards and sitting room were delightful.

Very nice hotel, super nice staff. And yes, the bells DO stop at night

Carmona is such a picturesque town of cobbled, narrow and winding streets. El Rincon De Las Descalzas was a little difficult to find on our first pass through the town (we used our GPS) but once located it proved to be an enjoyable stopping place for touring the area. There is no designated parking area near the hotel for your car but we were always able to find a spot within a few blocks radius of the hotel. Our accommodation had two tiny balconies - one off the bedroom and one off the living area. Those who enjoy tub bathing would find the bathroom more to their liking than those of us who prefer to shower (hand held with frequent water temperature changes). A hair dryer is not supplied and the electrical lighting is quite dim but all spaces in the hotel are very clean. There are several interior, outdoor patios to enjoy - whether at breakfast or at other times. Here you can sit among the lovely potted plants and listen to the song of a myriad of birds. The breakfast offered was not as plentiful as some but perfectly adequate and the coffee was excellent. The staff are all very friendly and willing to be of help. Do not pass up their restaurant recommendation - it is a bit more costly than some establishments you might find but the food and presentation are exceptional.
