Palma de Mallorca Hotels

Known as one of the leading hotel brands in the world, St Regis Mardavall lives up to its reputation by providing the finest service, facilities and setting in Palma. Set 9km (6 miles) away from Palma’s city centre, the hotel enjoys an exclusive spot overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. As well as 24 hour butler service, the hotel has a Michelin-starred restaurant, Es Fum, and a spa.

The city's most exclusive luxury hotel is housed in an opulent 16th-century palace. Located at the heart of Palma’s historical quarter, Palau Ca Sa Galesais is just a few steps away from the cathedral. The palace has just 12 rooms, all of which are designed differently, and each named after a famous musician.

A product of contemporary style and chic architecture, this ultra-modern design hotel draws a trendy crowd to its funky interiors, hip bar and a small rooftop swimming pool. Originally an 18th-century town palace, Puro has been transformed into an oasis where new-age luxury meets Spanish history. The hotel’s Opio Bar and Restaurant is also a popular nightspot for a stylish crowd.

Fusing stylish urban designs with rustic traditional architecture, this hotel is an excellent representation of modern-day Palma. As its name suggests, it is also a fully equipped spa, so be sure to check out its Jacuzzi, sauna, and steam bath too. There's also a rooftop terrace with sunbeds.

Originally a property of Mallorquin nobles, this elegant, family-owned Renaissance townhouse near the cathedral contains 14 tastefully decorated rooms. Most of its sleeping quarters, featuring chandeliers, canopied beds and tapestries, are centred on a citrus-shaded courtyard. Check in to the penthouse suite, which has a terrace, a Jacuzzi and views of the cathedral.

Just off the sea front and two minutes away from the Cathedral, Palau Sa Font is a small, atmospheric hotel converted from a 16th-century episcopal palace. Rooms are on the small side, featuring minimalistic designs and soothing pastel colours, but the rooftop swimming pool is cosy and private.

With good-value facilities for budget travellers, this guesthouse has long been one of the top economical accommodation choices in Palma. Set in the heart of La Lonja, amid a myriad of bars, cafes and museums, Hostal Apuntadores has an excellent location to boot. One of the biggest draws of the hotel is its roof terrace with arguably Palma's best view.

Amic Horizonte is a no-frills 2-star hotel based a little way from the town centre, but within easy reach of Palma’s main shopping and nightlife areas. Most of the 199 rooms have views of the sea and some have their own private Jacuzzis. The large swimming pool is an extra bonus.

Set in a narrow street in the old part of Mallorca and close to restaurants on the seafront, this friendly, family-run guesthouse is set in a traditional 19th century Mallorcan house. The decor, too, is reminiscent of a bygone age, although it's rustic; some rooms have shared bathrooms. Communal areas include three lounges, a patio and a rooftop terrace, as well as a communal kitchen.
