I am coming to Spain for a last minute project May 1, and traveling to Seville May 4 by Renfe to cover the festival. Unfortunately, our hotel reservation got messed up and I now need to find a hotel open to hosting journalists (as I work on a fixed budget and am a freelance writer/editor on three assignments with three magazines). Since all the hotels we looked at in city center are booked for the festival, can you please suggest:

Nice hotels outside the city center (i.e. residential sections of Seville, or suburbs accessible by bus)

Small towns near Saville located on the RENFE train route or a short bus ride from the city center, like Carmona, and decent hotels there?

You can check out my materials and tear sheets at ElyseGlickman.com...any guidance would be appreciated. The tourism board here in L.A. has been helpful in the past, but they have more limits as to how much they can assist journalists than they did back in 2004 when I first worked with them. Rest assured, they are nice people, and quite instrumental in helping me establish my travel writing career many years ago.

On behalf of my colleague, who's coming a bit earlier to Spain on April 24 for a conference, can you recommend hotels in Madrid that may be open to press comps or discounts? Thanks! She's looking on her own through her own sources, but I thought I would try to help her out.

All the best,

Elyse

I intend to establish a global virtual network recently .. The company's main idea: Let the friends around the world unite together to create more wealth, sharing of resources. . . Theme in the international tourism, collection networks, import and export trade, the Internet-building, information consultation, luxury hotels and other areas. Provided that the period requires you to start offering free services, you can provide the service will be recorded. As an upfront investment. Are now recruiting talent, do you wish to join it? What skills and experience do you have.

Por otro lado, díme por favor si Made For Spain tiene ofertas en Barcelona y Camino de Santiago, y os agregaremos a la lista de vendedores en esos grupos.

Otro saludito!!!
