21 Picture-Perfect Hotels in Mallorca, From Historic Castles to Wellness Hotspots

"From a platinum-pedigree family of hoteliers, owner Andrés Soldevila Ferrer embarked on the refurbishment of a 19th-century palace and turned it into a savvy showstopper with an independent spirit. Thoughtful extras in the rooms include a handy waterproof bag for wet swimwear and the gift of a black handbook with the owner’s favorite island haunts. In the process of its transformation, table number 42 (where Michelle Obama once dined) has become a must-have in the Quadrat Restaurant & Garden. Formerly the stables, the kitchen serves fresh, seasonal Mediterranean fare—the signature dish of scarlet shrimp socarrat rice created with the island’s famed Soller red prawns is rich and creamy thanks to preparation in a traditional paella pan. At breakfast, try traditional ensaïmada, snail-shaped pastries made by renowned bakery C’an Joan de S’aigo. —Anna Nicholas" - Roxy Kavousi-Walker, Stephanie Rafanelli

Inside the hotels of the Balearic Islands

"At some point Palma de Mallorca’s best hotels came to rival those in Barcelona and Madrid, two cities that have been in the top league for luxury and boutique hotels from the start. That’s thanks in large part not to the big chains but to one-off independent hotels like Sant Francesc Hotel Singular." - Guide MICHELIN

Sant Francesc Hotel Singular

"Tell us about your first impressions of the place.Mallorca has really come of age in the past decade, especially with this sophisticated, grown-up hotel with most probably the city’s roomiest roof terrace and its most inviting pool, shimmering in the shadow of the looming basilica. So what's the story behind this hotel?From a platinum-pedigree family of hoteliers, owner Andrés Soldevila Ferrer embarked on the refurbishment of this 19th-century Mallorcan palace, collaborating with leading architects and designers to create an emblematic hotel that still felt like home. He enlisted his mother, interior designer and art curator Nuria Ferrer Klein, to commission the showstopper modern artworks in the lobby. During the renovation, a grenade from the Spanish Civil War was unearthed—fortunately defunct. Sant Francesc Singular has hosted Hollywood royalty, and Michelle Obama once dined at the must-have table, number 42, in the Quadrat Restaurant garden. What are the rooms like? Any special details that make your stay that much more comfortable?All 42 rooms have a quirky, independent spirit thanks to the historic character. Decor, such as in Room 210, is a graceful fusion of white wood rafters, French oak, and stone flooring. Stylish Keeley amenities by the bathtub. Thoughtful extras include a handy waterproof bag for wet swimwear and the gift of a black handbook with the owner’s favorite island haunts. A room to covet is the Sant Francesc Suite, with its frescoed ceilings and private balcony with views to the old town. How's the restaurant on site?Quadrat Restaurant & Garden, formerly the stables, serves fresh, seasonal Mediterranean stuff—the signature dish of scarlet shrimp socarrat rice created with the island’s famed Soller red prawns is moreish and creamy, thanks to preparation in a traditional paella pan. At breakfast are Mallorca’s classic ensaïmada snail-shaped pastries made by renowned bakery C’an Joan de S’aigo, and the island’s sobrasada cured paprika sausage. How do the staff treat you?Any request is carried out with genuine warmth. General Manager Miguel Feliz is always ready to welcome guests personally. Concierge specials such as creating your own gin at a nearby Palma distillery or watching espadrilles being made in Palma’s Olivar market are original diversions. We like it! What kinds of visitors are likely to select the Sant Francesc if staying in Mallorca?Savvy, cosmopolitan, inquisitive. They might listen to Lana del Rey or José Gonzales with a glug of Adele and The Weeknd thrown in for good measure. Julian Barnes’s The Only Story and Sudden Death by Alvaro Enrique might hit the right note at bedtime. What are the highlights of the neighboring area?Secreted in peaceful Sant Francesc Square, adjacent to the 13th-century church of the same name, the hotel has a certain anonymity while being in the heart of the historic quarter. It’s close to galleries, boutiques, and niche restaurants, as well as leading sights such as Palma Cathedral and the Arab baths. What else should we be sure to check out while staying here?All the perks: a rooftop terrace and pool, gym housed in a former ancient water cistern, wellness suite, and a sanctuary of a cocktail bar and olive tree-clad inner courtyard. A helpful doorman on hand with bottles of mineral water when the sun sizzles. Were there any potential downsides to staying here?Unseasonal weather that curtails feasting on the scrumptious sushi served on the roof terrace from May to October. So if you were to give this restaurant a tag line, what would it be?This may be an uber-chic urban bolthole, but it’s as cozy as a cashmere blanket." - Ana Nicholas

We loved our stay at Sant Francesc Singular!! The staff was so kind and accommodating. Especially Diego at the front desk, he went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our time in Palma. Including helping us make and adjust reservations around the city. He also had great recommendations for food, shopping, and site seeing. Rooftop is awesome too!! Very relaxing and quiet.

Delightful hotel in a quiet location of Palma old town. The hotel’s Quadrat restaurant is excellent in the evening and the Sunday lunch is highly recommended. The rooms are lovely and clean and there is a relaxing rooftop pool and bar.|But the most important asset of this hotel is the staff who from the reception team to the restaurant and bar and housekeeping are all amazing. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we felt welcomed and looked after. We received genuine and exceptional hospitality and can’t thank them all enough for a wonderful holiday.

Amazing hotel. Theres a reason why it is fully booked and hard to get into. The decor of this hotel and the rooms is great. The rooms were very spacious, amazing bed and all the amenities you need. Our room had a nice terrace too. The staff were very helpful and organised a boat trip for us which was really good. Rooftop pool area is fantastic and the bar there a good added touch to get drinks by the pool. Location is great right in the centre and has parking which was useful for us. The gym area was small but had everything you need for a bit of a workout with modern equipment. Only downside if I had one is that booking a massage was a bit tricky as they bring in masseuses from outside the hotel so getting availability was a bit delayed and made it harder to sort (maybe we were planning badly so make sure you book well in advance of when you want). Overall definitely recommend and thanks for a great stay!

Sant Francesc is a beautiful former private mansion and now an ultra-modern, luxurious boutique hotel. We did a wedding there, our bride chose the typical Majorcan courtyard of Sant Francesc, as it combines the mansion's original architecture and olive trees with its ultra-modern new design. The staff is absolutely brilliant and kind. We love this place! We absolutely recommend it as a base for your destination wedding.

We choose tis Hotel given that my daughter was getting married near it Church, and it's been to long since we've received such a level of service, attention, courtesy. Hotel members at all times helping us in all matters, lobby, terrace, and restaurant A1. Rooms delightful. Front desk courteous and efficient. Location excellent. Between friends and family we rented about 6 different type of rooms and all were excellent. Nothing to improve.

The public areas of the hotel are very well maintained and that’s where it ends. The rooms are very shabby, it’s pretty dated, the pool area is quite run down, scruffy old beds, no umbrellas and no shower facilities. The gym isn’t a gym, it’s a broom cupboard with a treadmill. Similarly the spa isn’t a “spa”, a couple of small treatment rooms, no showers, pool, etc. Completely agree with other reviews that state it’s not 5 star, particularly for the price. Those giving it 5/5 must not have experienced very many 5 star hotels before, because this certainly isn’t. The grandeur in the lobby isn’t matched anywhere else, and the service wasn’t elevated. Just want you’d expect from any normal hotel. There are much nicer in palma where you get better VFM.

Leo the Legend! Service from all staff was excellent and really made the trip for us. Leo in particular was very attentive and went the extra mile for us and made our trip that extra bit special. He gave us lots of advice to explore the beautiful area and will definitely be back!

Amazing hotel. Would highly recommend as a tranquil setting in the centre of Palma. All the staff were amazing.||The room was well designed and spacious. ||We didn’t have breakfast as we wanted to explore the city but the buffet looked good. We had snacks and drinks on the rooftop which were 5/5.

Very nice hotel with old world elegance, artistry and charm, but a bit dark and drab room and especially in the shower area. The shower pressure is non existent, even despite my asking the front desk to help us get more pressure. That is simply not acceptable, especially for the more than $1000 a night price. (The weak shower pressure delayed us in the morning as we tried to quickly get ready for breakfast, only to have the waitstaff tell us upon arrival that we only had 10 minutes to eat before closing!) I believe the room is priced at twice what would seem fair under the circumstances. Great location and walkable to everything. Hotel is small and elegant. Our Sant Francesc "suite" is not a suite by any standards but instead a mere room and should in no way be marketed as a suite just to add to the already hefty pricing. This suite had an uncomfortable mattress that was too soft and only a thin comforter. This makes me think the mattress hasn't been replaced in years. Further, upon checking in I gave the clerk my credit card and passports but she wanted both my spouse and my signatures because mine alone wasn't good enough to check in which I thought was odd especially given this was a birthday gift to my spouse. The rooftop is tiny so not really a pool place and the pool is not heated or meant for swimming due to its tiny size. Food is not bad but not anything special.The gym is also minuscule and you will get better exercise honestly just walking in town. We ordered a car transport from the hotel directly but the car came a half hour late and would not take our bags because they told us they can't keep a bag in the front seat. All of this makes me feel like this is a 4-star trying to be a 5-star but falls onto a 3-star when it's all said and done.

One of the most beautiful hotels I've ever seen. Modern restoration of historic mansion. Think Armani meets Spanish aristocracy. Service and staff also wonderful. About a 10 minute walk to the cathedral and center of old town but on interesting streets with fun shops, cafes and bars. You feel more like a local here being just far enough away from the tourist areas that you hear almost all Spanish as you make your way home for the night. Beds are so comfortable that we often enjoyed them late into the day, missing the heat and humidity of Palma (97 degrees F is too hot for me)! But 24-hour room service and an endless supply of ice really helped after staying up late in the city dancing and drinking! PS, the rooftop pool is relatively small and you'll find at least half the hotel there during the day. It's definitely a scene...
