Many thanks in anticipation:) I have no idea where he would read there are no toilets in Seville...really. Of course there are toilets...if you can find a McDonalds,a dept store or even a cafe (where you may need to buy something as in coffee if for customers only) I am sure he will be ok.Spain is not a third world country.

Pet Nit Noy Posted October 19, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Sorry, should have said public toilets - I also apologise for my sticky finger mistyping! lolThanks cberge for your reply - he read online that all public toliets were closed which set off the panic Frankly, Cberge's advice is excellent and useful for most of Western Europe. While there are always available public rest room facilities in museums or inside major department stores, tourists should plan on using the facilities in McDonald's or cafes the majority of the time. Always plan on buying something for the privilege of using the facilities. Not everyone in the group needs to buy something, but one or more tourists should buy make a purchase. The item can be as inexpensive and useful as a bottle of water or a cup of coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pv girl Posted October 19, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 19, 2014 A lot of toilets in Europe are for a fee. There is an attendant outside collecting a fee and sometimes giving toilet paper. Usually a small fee, 20 to 50 cent Euro, so have some small change with you. It is worth the fee as they also keep the places pretty clean. They don't like to give change for a 5 Euro note. Have even had this at McDonalds in Europe. The large better hotels usually have nice restrooms in the lobby, my secret place to go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonTowner Posted October 20, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 20, 2014 There are not many public toilets in Spain, but as already suggested just go to the toilet in a bar, restaurant, shop, museum etc. That's what Spaniards do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockdoctor Posted October 20, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I can't remember the last time I used a public toilet in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pet Nit Noy Posted October 20, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I can't remember the last time I used a public toilet in the US. How are you defining public rest room? Are you saying you haven't used the public restrooms in the food court of the mall? I'd call that a public toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmartellama Posted October 22, 2014 #11 Share Posted October 22, 2014 It works just like anywhere else in the world. Use museums, bars, restaurants etc. I don't think McDonalds toilets are the cleanest around, to be honest. Just go anywhere nice enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKBayern Posted November 6, 2014 #12 Share Posted November 6, 2014 It is not a strange question, it is one a lot of people struggle with because of different reasons: children, seniors, people with certain medications, diabetics, pregnant women, etc. My mum and I are both always looking for the public toilets, and I cannot remember it being a real issue in Seville when we were there for a week. Once you know where to look, you notice there are many around, you can try following places: Fast food places (McDo, Starbucks, Subway, etc) Railway stations Petrol stations Municiple parks, especially near the kids playground or near a stage/band stand/coffee stand Parking garages Large hypermarkets Large Furniture stores Malls Tourist informations/city hall/public libraries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
