allorca is, for a fact, much more than just sun and beach. This island offers endless possibilities for sports fans, for those who yearn for disconnection in the countryside and, of course, also for those who enjoy the hustle and bustle of urban life. The latter, those who want to immerse themselves in the city’s rhythm, get to know its architecture, spend an afternoon shopping and taste the varied gastronomic offer, will find unique places to stay in the centre of Palma. The boutique hotel concept has become more prominent in the Balearic capital and is now one of the preferred options of urbanites. Located in historic buildings that have been updated respecting their peculiarities, these hotels combine design and history to create a unique atmosphere. On its terraces, overlooking the cathedral and the promenade, the atmosphere is casual, ideal for a cocktail after a busy day. Every detail has been carefully taken care of in its restaurants, which offer all sorts of cuisines: from local to international and enticing fusion food dishes. Some of these charismatic hotels even feature typical Mallorcan courtyards, private gardens, art collections and spa areas.
