Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“Romanesque arches and a giant palm tree spectacularly cover the central courtyard and reception area of this shabby-chic hotel, which occupies the former mansion of a noble Mallorcan family. Guest rooms are modest, though some have the original coffered and painted ceilings and traditional Mallorcan furnishings.”

What guests liked

All you need to know

Located in the famous Old Town, the Born Hotel is an ideal property to stay in the capital with proximity to many landmarks. This is not another ordinary hotel in Mallorca. The property was once a palace dating back to the 16th century. Today, it holds great historical and cultural significance that is evident from its architecture. The hotel is only 8 minutes of walk away from the Royal Palace of La Almudaina, a few minutes away from Font del Sepulcre and the Centre of Palma de Mallorca is only 1 km away. The rooms at Hotel Born are decorated with beautiful Mallorcan furniture. Some offer stunning views of courtyards.

Along with free Wi-Fi, the hotel offers many other facilities such as breakfast in bed, laundry services, relaxing massages, 24-hour reception, and a bar terrace. They also offer airport transfers on request. There is a typical Mallorcan restaurant on the hotel’s ground floor offering delicious Mediterranean cuisine on a patio full of palm trees. The staff of the hotel is always happy to help you with anything such as renting a car. You can also book a guided tour through them to the major attraction in the city. If you are up for a ferry ride to the Balearic Islands, the port is only a 10-minute drive away. The hotel offers discounts on longer stays. Reserve now and enjoy your trip to Mallorca.

Great property with kind competent staff in a superb location.

I have stayed before. The staff is wonderful kind and helpful. They gave me a breakfast bag as I left for the airport too early for their lovely breakfast buffet. The location is superb in a wonderful palatial courtyard building. The rooms are small but very comfortable.

There is no elevator so elderly guests would need help w their luggage. The courtyard restaurant looked great but on both nights there were wedding receptions so we couldn’t even have a cocktail there.

Great on the whole just a bit disappointed about the bar - it was one of the reasons we booked

Lovely building in a great location

The courtyard bar and restaurant are not owned by the hotel so we were turned away twice despite there being tables as they were “too busy “- so despite you having to listen to their music all night you cannot be guaranteed to be served so we went to the bar in the hotel next door. The second time we were turned away they were quite rude to be honest.

Fabulous, would definitely stay again.

Excellent location, beautiful building, amazing breakfast, lovely bathrooms and bedding, great staff and service. A gem in the city centre with a gorgeous courtyard. Will stay again.

I wasn’t aware that the restaurant closed one night and also the bar is unavailable during a private event (pre-wedding) but this did not detract from our stay.

Great location. Small room.

Very good location. Huge bathroom. Great breakfast in the central garden. Friendly and helpful staff. Very comfortable bed.

Room 101 was too small for the large bed. A poorly positioned small desk made it very difficult to get around the room, so we moved it and the mini fridge beneath it. It was fine after that. Room 101 is also just above reception and noise carried up the stairs. The night reception staff member was very good in clearing the noisy guests from the lobby after my complaint around 12:30 am. Both the bathroom and the bedroom were relatively poorly lit. I needed to use my phone light to see in the wardrobe. We didn't feel it was very good value for €320 per night.

A perfect location, comfortable and spotless rooms. We can highly recommend it

Historic building beautifully renovated and well furnished. Spotless rooms with supremely comfortable bed. Efficient Air Con. The hotel is tucked away just off the Passeig del Born, an ideal central location yet a quiet and calm oasis away from the noise and bustle of central Palma. Easy check-in and check-out. Helpful staff at Reception. Charming courtyard restaurant for al fresco drinking and dining.

Breakfast Buffet was adequate but laid out in a dark, gloomy room just off the courtyard. Air Con was not working during our visit and it was uncomfortably hot which was not the most appealing place to serve cold meats and cheeses, fruits and yoghurts. Fortunately, we were able to eat outside in the courtyard when it stopped raining.

I recommend this hotel if you want to stay in the „center of everything” in Palma and enjoy cosy atmosphere.

Nice, design hotel in the old building, in the very center of Palma. Good, intim atmosphere. The guy in duty during breakfast (Carlos) was amazing - top professional but very relaxed in the same time. The whole staff was very attentive and nice.

A bit of noise coming from neighbouring rooms (it is wooden construction of the ceiling, I guess).

Wonderful.

Staff were fantastic, very welcoming and friendly. Small hiccup with our room but sorted quickly and professionally. Rooms were lovely, we stayed in a superior suite which I would choose again. Very clean. Hotel was full, however we were not disturbed once. Great bar and amazing food at restaurant. Location was brilliant, quiet location but within a 1 minute walk of the main areas.

A small welcome pack including more coffee pods and water put in the fridge so it's cool would have made our stay even better.

Fabulous

From the moment we walked in, the staff were warm and welcoming and keen to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The hotel is located in the heart of the main attractions of Palma and extremely convenient for all we wanted to do and see.

It was slightly noisy at night from some guests who were using the bar . (Our room was situated on top of the bar), but this did not entirely ruin our stay. During the day, the lovely facilities were not open for residents to use to relax in although coffee and drinks were available in the room.
