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.”

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.

Our stay at Born hotel was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The staff were warm, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make us feel at home (the star point of this hotel). Our room was spacious, beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable. We loved waking up to the stunning views each morning and ending the day by a drink in its bar. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Everything about this hotel radiates charm and attention to detail! Highly recommended!

Perfect location for staying in city center

The location is really stands out. It's located in the city center in 1 minute of shopping. It's also a 10-15 minute walk to the Palma cathedral. In a 10-15 minute walk on the other side, you can find shops in the local pantry. Breakfast is okay, the variety of dishes is not perfect, could be better. No parking spot, but you don't need car in Palma, everything is reachable by walk. You should try the espresso martini, it's really perfect. The best I have tried yet.

No lift, but that's what it is. The light in the room could be better. There's no general center light. Room feels dark some times, even with all the lights on.

Marvelous

What a marvelous place! Great location, 10 mins tops from the cathedral. Very stylish, clean and lovely. The room was spacious, with good AC, also there was a coffeemaker and tea. Beds and pillows are comfy, it's quiet at night. Breakfast was very tasty, with hot options and prosecco.

The only thing that perhaps might be improved - more pastry variety at breakfast)

Lovely location.

Location was perfect. Breakfast was nice. Reception was breathtaking.

Air conditioning didn’t work one night and the staff member who we spoke to on the phone was rude. He then came to the room to try and fix it and said we would have to move rooms if we wanted air conditioning. It was midnight. He also said they might not have other rooms available. He left without fixing it which was disappointing. We eventually resolved the problem ourselves. We were disappointed with his lack of interest.

Good value for the money

Good value for the money; the personnel were kind, and the room and hotel design were satisfactory.

Breakfast could have more variety and be based on local cuisine. I couldn't feel Mallorcan vibes, but it was decent.

Perfection. I’ll be back.

Gorgeous, stunning, perfectly located property with an equally sublime restaurant in a beautiful setting.

No lift - it’s an old building so I wasn’t surprised but worth being aware of. Also, the lovely charming guy at reception kindly offered to carry my bags to the first floor.

Fantastic hotel. Perfect spot.

Great staff, lovely rooms, perfect location. Cute sparrows that fly down during breakfast... They like corn flakes and granola btw 😊

We were facing the bar and restaurant area which can get a bit noisy, although it was always quiet come 11pm. It really wasn't an issue for us but maybe if you had young children, you might want to request a room facing away.

Just amazing 🤩

Everything!!! As soon as we walked through the door, we were welcomed into an oasis of calm in the middle of Palma. Staff were super helpful, breakfast was amazing, and the bar, a lovely place to relax after a busy day shopping! Bedroom was a good size, comfortable and with good quality toiletries. We will definitely return if we visit Palma again.

A fabulous hotel in a great location

The location is perfect, right next to the old town and main shopping area and a 5-10 minute walk to the cathedral. The hotel foyer and staircase are grand and the courtyard restaurant and bar area are stylish and fabulous for breakfast, dinner or drinks. Our room was very clean and had a small annexe with extra chairs, television and fridge, as well as coffee/ tea and kettle provided. Breakfast was very good with a wide range of sweet, savoury and fresh fruits provided.

This is more of a comment than an actual negative. Since the hotel was a 16th century palace, there is no lift. Therefore the hotel staff carried our suitcases up to our 4th floor room which they do for all guests. Just be aware there is no lift before you book, but the hotel is worth it!

Luxury stay in the centre of the old town

What an incredible place. My Mum and I have just returned from 3 nights in this lovely hotel, which is in a prime location in the old town near lovely restaurants and all of the shops. The room was huge, clean and comfortable and the staff were so lovely - special mention to Victor and another guy who was on reception today (17/07) who arranged our taxi to the airport.
