It’s then between 5-15 mins walk to all the main areas of Palma and down to the sea front/cathedral (about 20 mins stroll) - our room 1703 was nice. Large enough and comfy bed - windows didn’t quite seem to close properly so was quite noisy but we still slept fine - shower was a bit temperamental but not too bad - no kettle in the room but reception provided one when we asked

The staff were very friendly and helpful and even arranged for my friend and i to be in rooms next to each other. I booked 2 x Superior double rooms. one of the was great, very roomy, comfortable bed and good room layout, the second room which was a corner room was a bit odd. the bed was in the middle of the room, there were no bedside lights an the plug sockets were in the floor and although covered were in places where you had to step over them, the one for the tv i tripped over at lease twice. On the plus side the beds were extremely comfortable and the corner room had a baclony. overall for a one night stay it was great and in a very central location.

“Central location for sightseeing”

I had a really early morning flight so I arrived at the hotel already after 9:30 am. I had informed them beforehand, and was really happy to find that they had my room ready for me this early in the morning. Thank you!

I had a really early morning flight so I arrived at the hotel already after 9:30 am. I had informed them beforehand, and was really happy to find that they had my room ready for me this early in the morning. Thank you! Check-in was quick and friendly and all receptionists spoke English well. I had booked a superior room. My corner room was furnished in a peculiar way, with the bed in the middle of the room, making it feel a bit cramped as there was little room for anything else with this layout. Converting old buildings into hotels can be tricky sometimes, I guess. But the room did have a small table with two chairs, a closet, a safe and a fridge. The A/C was efficient and wifi worked well. The bed was comfortable. Due to the layout of the room, outlets had been placed on the floor, and charging your devices by the bed was possible. There was no water bottle in the room. While the room could have been bigger, especially as it was labelled superior, the bathroom was large and came with a deep bathtub that I very much enjoyed. Amenities consisted of wall-mounted containers of hand soap, a combined shampoo & shower gel as well as conditioner. Brekafast was served on the 1st floor from 7 to 11 each day at a price of 14 euros. I did not try it this time. The hotel is located opposite Plaça d'Espanya. The location is excellent in many respects; the airport bus stops right outside (bus A1, every 12 minutes, ticket 5 €, pay the driver in cash), a 2 min walk from the hotel entrance. The vintage train to Sóller is a 5 min walk away and the old town starts right at your doorstep. There is a large Mercadona supermarket on the top floor of Mercat de l’Olivar, a 5 min walk away. The seaside and cathedral are a bit further away. This is a city hotel, so there is no swimming pool, but it is a perfect base for exlopring Palma. The only letdown was the price, which in high season was a whopping 188 EUR/night without breakfast. While the room did not feel worth it, the hotel was almost fully booked so I guess the price was sort of right anyway.
