Hotel Born Palma, Mallorca

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!

Lovely, clean and spacious oasis in the heart of Palma; fabulous location surrounded by some excellent restaurants.

Location, restaurant, comfy beds!

It was beautiful. Very high end with a very comfortable bed and amazing bed sheets.

Hot breakfast wasn’t great but the breads and pastries were lovely.

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.

Absolutely excellent...beautiful hotel and rooms. Best location in Palma.

Historical building with plenty of style and character

Very lovely property excellent location Comfortable room , very friendly staff

It is historic and cool Gorgeous ceilings and marble pillars. The courtyard bar and restaurant was fabulous.

The bedrooms were a little tired and the sheets and towels need replacing.

Superfriendly staff. Quiet, spatious room. Perfect location. Nice bar and breakfast. I will be back!

Great location, friendly helpful staff, large comfortable room.

Bar and restaurant in hotel was closed on a Sunday and Monday. Courtyard Bar rented out for events during our stay to non residents for an event

The location and the building is amazing.

Better soundproofing between the rooms would be nice.

Beautiful hotel in a historic building with an authentic Mallorcan feel. Couldn’t be better located, right in the heart of the city at the top of the Passeig de Born just a few minutes walk from the cathedral, market and squares. It’s on the most beautiful narrow cobbled street surrounded by dozens more just like it, filled with amazing shops and cafes. The hotel foyer and outside bar and restaurant look particularly pretty when lit up at night. Would highly recommend.

Location was perfect, staff were lovely, hotel was beautiful

Fantastic building - staff and feel. Great location and just all round a great place to pop into

Beautiful hotel Perfect location to restaurants and activities! Everyone was so helpful and kind. Air conditioned large room was the perfect end to a long day! Highly recommend!

Everything! Beautifully decorated very stylish converted old palace . Lovely courtyard where we were able to sit and have breakfast and drinks in the evening or a meal from the restaurant Staff were very friendly and attentive especially Victor on reception who made us feel very welcome and was very helpful. Breakfast was great lots to choose from Location is perfect to Cathedral, shops , restaurants,tour bus and the port within 10-15 minutes walk . Don’t take any notice about the negative reviews re noise that you can hear from the courtyard in your room . If you’ve got the windows shut and air con on you can hardly hear anything and with the Tv on too you can’t hear a thing anyway it all stops by midnight and so enjoy your on holiday and relax !!!

Location and ambience

Make sure to get a room on 1st floor if you got bad knees like me

The location was great and within a 5-minute walk from two parking garages. The morning breakfast was the perfect way to start a day of activity, the rooms were clean and comfortable and the staff friendly. We would definitely stay there again.

Our flight did not arrive until after midnight and it was close to 1:30am by the time we rented a car. I had let the hotel know about our late arrival and they assured me that the front desk would be staffed. When we arrived, the hotel was completely locked. We rang the bell and there was no answer. I was able to call, someone answered and then let us in. That was our only negative about the hotel.

Breakfast in the courtyard was great .serves as a lovely bar in the evenings.wonderful location

No lift.

Very attractive courtyard setting. Based in the heart of the old town. Nice staff. Simple good quality breakfast. Rooms quaint but with all our requirements met.

Noisy at night. Some crashing of bottles and glass being collected late at night. Noise from outside in the street and from music playing in the courtyard No lift so you have to lift your luggage up a lot of stairs

Centrally located, near everything!

Minor points. No elevator, and not thier

Beautiful, great staff, wonderful food.

That I had to book through booking.com. Please book directly to the hotel website is my advice. Booking.com booked 2 rooms for me instead of 1!! I contacted them to say that I only needed one, and they did not respond. I thankfully visited the hotel the day before I needed to arrive, and between us.. we were able to sort out, and I was not charged for two room which would have been very expensive. I’m sorry, but I Will never again book through your website. I’m will book directly to the hotel website.

Beautiful hotel, helpful and friendly staff. Breakfast was lovely. The location was central to all parts of the city

Location was terrific. Rooms were on the small side. Breakfast was quite good. Staff very helpful. Be aware, no lift.

fantastic location, lovely building, lovely staff

small room and courtyard bar not open

Lovely smell everywhere, and the atmosphere was just breathtaking!

The location was perfect. We loved the character of the building the room was comfortable. We ate at Viu one evening and the food and the service were excellent. Terrible music! How about something more ethnic?

we quite like reading our books in bed, but there were two very thin pillows and a hard bed head. This could’ve been sorted out with some cushions or more pillows. The chairs were uncomfortable to sit in so this was not an option. The music in the courtyard was a little bit too loud (you could cut this out if you closed your windows, but it was nice to have the fresh air) and also I would strongly suggest that you change the type of music as it is really dreadful lift music. We were in Mallorca How about something more ethnic? Breakfast was okay but despite having mentioned the toaster a couple of times it still made no difference. It is not toast. It is warm bread that comes out regardless of what you do.

What a fabulous hotel, the location was just perfect. So central to everything, all in walking distance of the restaurant's, shops, cathedral and palaces. Love the style of the hotel, it had a very regal feel to it. Staff excellent, informative and helpful. Breakfast was delicious also.

Perfect location and beautiful interior. Room was spacious- clean and lovely decor. Nespresso machine in room with tea and coffee making facilities. Huge bathroom. Overlooking courtyard. Staff really friendly and breakfast was great value for money.

Nothing

Perfect quiet location, very helpful and efficient staff, very clean throghout, comfortable beds, air conditioning, very good breakfast.

The room was on the 4th floor without the lift. Whilst we had our lagguage delivered to the room on arrival and back downstairs on departure, it was not very easy to get back to the room after a day of sightseeing. A lift would be beneficial. It was also not very easy to find a parking space for the hired car.

Location was excellent 👍

Breakfast quality was poor.

Little gem of a place to stay. Super location for exploring Palma. The hotel was full of charm and the staff were extremely friendly. Serious thumbs up from me. Would stay again if in Palma.

Hotel rooms s in the perfect location and it was clean with a very helpful staff.

Great location/ decor/ reception staff/ cleaning. Bar facility not good as no atmosphere and cold outside. Heaters/ burners would have helped and encouraged customers. Breakfast was sub contracted and we didn’t feel the hot food offering was good at all. Raw bacon/ powdered eggs ( cold) and beans/ tortilla. Boiled eggs would be better. Toaster poor. Let the hotel down. Our room was on the front so very noisy late at night and early morning. Would request back room next time.

Great location. Nice room with view of patio. Walk in shower. Very quiet.

Wish bar in the patio had been open. Breakfast needed more choice and more fresh fruit.

Lovely atmosphere, comfortable and clean room with all the right amenities, fabulous staff, and a delicious breakfast.

Loved everything about our stay, room was lovely, staff very helpful and attentive and the location was perfect.

I missed not having a lift in the hotel in the first night carrying our bags pinto the room but the staff did offer to help. Only in arriving and departing, everyday no need for lift.

Beautiful building, decorated and furnished to a high standard.

The staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming! Perfect location!

Lovely hotel. Really beautiful building, as soon as you step into the entrance hall, with its beautiful marble floor and stone arches with high ceilings. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. We slept very well. The bathroom is well equipped with a walk in shower, lots of water flow, and really nice and hot. There is also a toilet and bidet. The staff were so friendly. They always recognised us, greeted us with a smile as they handed us the room key. Reception staff were happy to help with advice regarding buses and times to help us explore the island. Breakfast was included and a wide variety was provided. Again the staff in the restaurant could not be more helpful and friendly. The breakfast included juices, coffee, Cava (bit early for me) various breads croissants and pastries etc, cold meats, cheeses, fruits, and cooked breakfast. The cooked breakfast consisted of slices of tortilla (Spanish omelet) scrambled eggs, baked beans and jamon style bacon. This is the only area I thought could be a little better. Some fried or poached eggs, some sausages and some normal bacon would have suited my English taste better. The hotel is ideally situated just a minutes walk from the city centre, yet nice and quiet at night. Overall lovely hotel and I would happily stay again.

The cooked breakfast options were limited

Beautiful atmospheric property
