Sevilla Travel Forum

I am looking for an answer for my daughter and her friend who are traveling in Europe right now. What is the best way to get from the train station in Sevilla (Estacion de Santa Justa) to the Alcora Hotel in Sevilla? Is there a specific bus to take? Any other means of getting to their hotel?

The hotel website (http://www.hotelalcora.com) has only pages in Spanish at the moment, as the English pages are not available. However, the Spanish pages say: "Transporte en nuestra Minibus gratuito a la estación de AVE, centro Ciudad e Isla Mágica ( previa reserva, plazas limitadas )" or "[we have] free transport in our minibus to the AVE station, the city center, and to Magic Island (prior reservation, limited seats)". I see in the Spanish language Wikipedia that Santa Justa is the AVE station, so this is good...

However, I saw on tripadvisor.com someone complaining about the difficulty of getting the shuttle bus to come get them (the website site does say prior reservations...maybe just calling them when you arrive may not work or you may have to wait a while)...

e hotel location is in Aljarafe/San Juan de Aznafarache which is on the western side of the city quite near two very large stores: CARREFOUR and EL CORTE INGLES/HIPERCOR.
The CARREFOUR ALJARAFE may be closest.
The hotel website specifically offers free pick up at Santa Justa station so I would definitely try for that ! Otherwise it would be a taxi fare of perhaps about Euros 15 or taking the bus which would mean a grasp of Spanish & Map reading. A change of bus from outside Santa Justa station would be necessary but I don't have my Seville bus map on me. The hotel itself can advise you on best route if this is the way you decide but I think it sounds like (1) hotel transport (2) taxi (3) bus

Thanks everyone for the help

the following site map shows the hotel about 7km SE of Santa Justa (http://www.holidaycityeurope.com/alcora-seville/map.html) A bit too far to walk. I would do the taxi and figure it part of the travel costs.
