Welcome to
Belockal!

We want to make sure that you enjoy your experience with us as much as possible, so we would like to clarify a small detail about our establishments.

We have two places:

Local del Postigo: Located near the Cathedral, right in the heart of the city. Easy to recognise by our big yellow sign above the main entrance and a small window.

Local de Puerta Carmona: Located next to the Puerta Carmona pharmacy, right at one of the entrances to the centre.

Before booking, we recommend that you make sure you are selecting the right place to store your luggage. We have already had more than one incident of a traveller who got lost and booked in another location, although they have been few and all of them have been solved, we do not want you to go through this bad experience, so we repeat: BEFORE BOOKING PLEASE LOOK WHERE YOU ARE BOOKING.

The truth is that we are very happy with the great reception and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Especially to those who even bother to leave a comment on Google maps.

A big hug and have a good trip

Today we are going to talk about torrijas, an Easter classic.

Torrijas are slices of bread, usually several days old to make them harder, which are soaked in milk with cinnamon and sugar, dipped in beaten egg and then fried. Then they are sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon, and ready to enjoy!

If you have a passion for sweets and want to try something traditional from the land, I recommend you try them at:

1. Casa Morales: A classic in Seville, famous for its tapas but also for its exquisite torrijas.

2. Confitería La Campana https://www.confiterialacampana.com With more than 100 years of history, it is known for its traditional confectionery, including torrijas.

3. Bar Giralda https://cerveceriagiralda.es Located right in the heart of Seville, this is another place where you can enjoy top quality torrijas.

But please, don't go carrying your suitcase, that's what I'm here for: either at the Postigo or at Puerta Carmona.

Let me know what you think, and bon appetit!

As you stroll through the narrow cobbled streets, you are enveloped by a soft, sweet scent that transports you to another world. This olfactory spell is courtesy of the orange trees that adorn every corner of the city. In spring, the orange blossoms, the small white flowers of the orange trees, unfurl their charm and saturate the air with their intoxicating fragrance.

Seville becomes a perfumed garden where every step is a sensory immersion. The orange trees, with their white blossoms and green leaves, create a visual palette that combines with the scent of orange blossom, turning every corner into a dreamlike scene.

Whether you are a curious traveller or a lover of unique experiences, the spell of orange blossom will take hold of your heart. Stroll through the bustling squares and let yourself be enveloped by this gift of nature that transforms Holy Week in Seville into an unforgettable experience.

So, if you ever decide to lose yourself in the streets of this enchanting city during Semana Santa, first leave your bags at Belockal and prepare to fall in love with a perfume that will linger in your memory long after your visit. Welcome to the spell of orange blossom in Seville!

How are your pockets? If you are generous and want to treat yourself to possibly the best seafood and fish in Seville, next to the Arco del Postigo you have the restaurant la Isla.

As soon as you see those shop windows with that genre, you get teary-eyed.

Starting with the attention given by the waiters who are professionals, followed by the table, as they dress it with tablecloths, cloth napkins, beautiful cutlery, the restaurant is very nice and comfortable.

I recommend you to let the waiters advise you because the truth is that everything is spectacular, prawns, shrimps, small shrimps, oysters, tuna belly, octopus, rice, pargo....

If you go, tell me about it, I love to know about your gastronomic experience.

This time it's my turn to talk about flamenco, what a marvellous thing to do! Well look, next to the local Postigo in Arfe street, specifically at number 11, there is a very small bodeguita where people with a lot of art start singing and dancing. Practically every day there are performances and you can have very generous drinks. If you are not used to drinking, be careful when they serve you because if you don't, you can get a good tipple.

Don't miss it because it's worth listening to pure flamenco.

Let me know if you've started dancing, tell me about it, because every time I listen to flamenco my legs go.

First of all, I'm going to introduce myself because I'm going to be your guide to this wonderful city. My name is Lola and I am passionate about Seville, especially the bars and nightlife.

Every week I will be giving you ideas of where to go, what to eat, what to see or what to dance, these are my tips, but as I have been living in Seville for 51 years to be exact, I know the city very well, and I am also a party animal.

Today I'm going to recommend a little bodeguita that is very close to the Postigo, it's called Bodeguita Antonio Romero and they have a montadito... that brings tears to your eyes! It's called "piripi" and it has cheese, bacon, tape lomo, tomato and their secret, which they are incapable of sharing, is like coca cola... anyone knows the formula.

Go and try it, you'll be amazed, and then let me know what you think.

Thanks and I hope you have a good day, follow me for more tips.

Last Sunday was the 39th Zurich Seville Marathon.

What an atmosphere there was in the city! The race numbers were sold out two and a half months before the event, about 12,000 runners ran, with 250 of them being real elite athletes! Many people of all nationalities, more than 5,700 participants were foreigners, over 2,100 women, representing 17.5%, dared to run it and we cannot forget the 3,000 Andalusians in the mix, with more than 2,000 Sevillians giving their best!

Several records were broken, including Belockal's record for the most lockers rented out on the day..... What a rush! Many runners decided to leave their belongings and go to the street to run, and as our place is next to the finish line it was a fantastic place to deposit all the backpacks and suitcases.

Are you more of a runner or a supporter? I clapped my hands and cheered everyone on, but I'll leave the running to others.

And from here I would just like to thank the runners who made our day so happy.
