Born Hotel Review

Affordable and historical Hotel Born is situated right in the heart of Palma’s Old Town. Originally the 16th century palace of the Marquis of Ferrandell, it was restored in the 18th century to feature a typical Mallorcan interior patio. This attractive patio, dotted with huge palm trees and tables and chairs, is now the centre piece of Born and its 35 rooms.

The hotel has been modernized but still feels as though it's from a bygone age. The entrance hall echoes the building’s original grandeur as pillared arched ceilings, gleaming marble and a sweeping staircase leads up to the hotel's four floors. With such an entrance, guests may forget this is a two star budget hotel. However it is a budget hotel, so despite the setting and the traditional dark wood antiques, the en-suite rooms are simple and clean, with basic beds and furnishings. The best rooms in the hotel have large French windows looking out onto tall palm trees and the pretty patio below.

Hotel Born is a welcoming place to stay and boasts an enviable central location. Set down a quiet street, close to Palma’s sights, restaurants and shops, it’s an ideal base from which to explore the city. The impressive cathedral and stretching seafront are just a walk away. Whilst the main shopping streets of Palma are metres away, so what you save on accommodation can be spent in Camper, Zara and Loewe!

Guest Reviews

Visited this 2* Hotel with husband & daughter aged 7 - we had a fantastic time, we were very very impressed with what we got - hotel was excellent & room was very spacious looking onto courtyard. Staff very very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was excellent with plenty to choose from - will definitely stay there again - location way ideal, central for Cathedral etc. We loved it.
What an amazing find! Tucked away down a cobbled back street but only seconds from the centre, amazing decor friendly staff good breakfast!10 marks!
Ten out of ten! Great location, friendly staff, traditional Mallorcan style. Amazing breakfast - even Bucks Fizz, if you feel like it! Very good value at €108 for a "junior suite" with view of the cool, tranquil courtyard and its 2 majestic palm trees.
