Palm Studios – A detailed look at a modern Seville residence
Palm Studios (also listed as Yugo The Palm in some reviews) is a purpose-built student accommodation located at 38, 41012 Sevilla, Spain. It offers both non-ensuite rooms and private studios, with monthly rents ranging from €750 to €1,260 (indicative — confirm with the operator). The property includes a gym, a game room, and all utility bills in the rent. On Google, it holds a 4.5-star rating from 73 reviews.
This article gives a factual assessment of who will find this residence a good fit, what current residents say, how its price compares with the broader Seville market, which room type to choose, and when to book.
Who this residence suits (and who should look elsewhere)
Suits:
- Students who want an all-inclusive, hassle‑free setup. Bills (electricity, water, internet) are covered, so no separate accounts or unexpected charges.
- Residents who value on-site amenities. The gym and game room are available 24/7 without extra memberships.
- Those who prefer a modern, well-maintained environment. Multiple reviews mention cleanliness, comfort, and modern furnishings.
- People needing short stays. The minimum lease is just one month, making it practical for summer courses, internships (like the Erasmus+ stay mentioned in reviews), or short placements.
- Individuals who feel safer in a building with professional, English-speaking staff — several reviewers specifically mention helpful staff.
Less suitable for:
- Budget-conscious students. The entry price (€750) is significantly above the cheapest student accommodation in Seville (city-wide from-price is €167/month — indicative — though that figure likely refers to shared rooms or basic rentals in less central areas). Palm Studios is a premium option.
- Students who want a very central location. The address is in the 41012 postal district, which is a residential zone a short bus ride from the historic centre. The nearest bus stop is within walking distance (as a reviewer notes), but it is not a walk-everywhere location.
- Anyone who strongly prefers a fully self-contained private bathroom. The “non‑ensuite” room type shares bathroom facilities, which may not suit those who want total privacy without sharing a corridor bathroom.

“I stayed here for 3 weeks as part of my Esasmus+ internship abroad. It is very modern and has a nice pool that is permanently cooled.

Common positives: Cleanliness, helpful staff, modern amenities, calm atmosphere for studying, good supermarket proximity. The third review adds that a pool (permanently cooled) is available — this amenity is not listed in the tags but is confirmed by a resident.
No negative reviews were provided in the data, so we cannot report any criticisms. However, the overall rating (4.5) suggests generally satisfied residents.
Price positioning vs the city’s from-price
The data shows a “city_from_price” of €167 (indicative — confirm with the operator) for student housing in Seville. That low figure usually corresponds to a shared room in a less modern building, or a weekly rate. Palm Studios starts at €750 monthly for a non‑ensuite room, rising to €1,260 for a studio.
- Relative to the baseline: Palm Studios is roughly 4.5 to 7.5 times the cheapest city option, which confirms it is a higher-end residence.
- What you get for the premium: A newer building, a gym, a game room, a cooled pool (per resident feedback), all bills included, and English-speaking staff. For many international students, the convenience compensates for the higher price.
- Important: Always confirm the final price with the operator, as promotional rates or seasonal variations may apply.
Room-type guidance
The residence offers two categories:
-
Non‑ensuite room (lower price end, around €750 – precise amount indicative):
- Private bedroom but shared bathroom facilities, typically with other residents on the same floor.
- Suitable if you are social and don’t mind sharing a bathroom. Usually the more budget-friendly choice within the building.
-
Studio (upper price end, around €1,260):
- Fully self-contained: private kitchen, bathroom, and living/sleeping area.
- Ideal for those who value maximum privacy and the ability to cook their own meals without shared spaces.
- Higher cost but also greater independence.
Neither type includes private laundry; check with the operator whether there are on-site machines.
Booking timing
- Available from: Not specified in the data. Assume standard academic cycles (September/October start) with some flexibility for shorter stays.
- Minimum lease: 1 month, which is unusually short for student residences. This works well for summer programs or exchange semesters that require temporary housing.
- Advice: Since the property has a strong reputation and limited units (16 properties listed in Seville on the platform, but Palm Studios appears to be a single building), early booking — at least 3–4 months in advance — is wise, especially for studios and January/September intakes. For short stays, check last-minute availability directly through the operator.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the rent include utility bills?
Yes. The tags list “bills_included,” and resident reviews confirm that the stay is hassle‑free with no separate accounts for electricity, water, or internet. Always double‑check with the operator which bills are covered (e.g., sometimes internet or cleaning is extra) — but the available data suggests all utilities are part of the monthly price.
What is the minimum stay?
The minimum lease is one month. This makes Palm Studios one of the more flexible options in Seville for short-term accommodation. You can rent for a single month or extend as needed.
How far is it from the main university areas?
The address is in the 41012 district (Reina Mercedes / Los Remedios area). This is a residential zone about 2–3 km from the historic centre where several university faculties are located. A reviewer notes that a bus stop is within walking distance and supermarkets are nearby. The exact distance to any specific campus depends on your department; the property does not appear to be directly next to a university building. Check public transport routes with the operator or local transport maps.
