Can Cera Boutique Hotel, Palma

Like the restaurant, the modern bar is out of step with the rest of hotel's traditional decoration. It has floor to ceiling white shelving displaying a wide variety of wines and spirits that can be enjoy either on the beautiful covered terrace or in the low lights of the bar itself.

The restaurant in contrast to the hotel, is very much in the 21st century with modern art covering the walls, dark ceilings and hanging lamps. It offers a first rate Mediterranean tapas menu using local, fresh, seasonal ingredients.

Children are welcome at the hotel and cots are provided free of charge.

You’ll need to organise your own bike hire when staying here.  Things to consider are the type of bike you want to rent such as road, mountain, hard trail and/or an electric bike; and whether you’ll need helmets and protective clothing with your rental. You’re best off choosing a shop that is close to your accommodation for ease of access, and making it quicker to return the bike and pay at the end. Some companies may also deliver so it’s worth looking at all the options.

• "An exclusive and personal boutique hotel is all about getting the right feeling. And we did. The entire staff are friendly, professional and very polite. Breakfast is great!!! The Majorcan cuisine they offer in the restaurant is delicious. Our Junior Suite was very spacious, bright, comfortable and the bed to die for.... The location was perfect as well. This is real luxury. We have already recommended this beautiful hotel to our friends.Thank you for making our stay so memorable!" - Trip Advisor
• "I stayed here on a recent business trip. I loved the central location and the warm welcome which greeted me upon arrival. I was given a brief tour of the hotel and then shown to my fabulous room with an amazingly comfortable bed and huge bathroom. All of the usual five-star touches were in place but the friendly and personalised service (a constant theme throughout the stay) were a refreshing change from chain hotels. I had dinner and breakfast in the restaurant - both of which were perfectly paced, very tasty and great value for money, with great local wine options. One huge bonus is the spa which you can book out for exclusive use - with a large jacuzzi, sauna and steam room it really is a treat. I travel a lot for work and stay in countless hotels each year, yet this hotel stood out as something really special. Enjoy it!" - Trip Advisor

• "Historic Hotel Can Cera in Palma has stood proudly in its place since 1232, taking a turn along the way as a 17th-century palace. These days, it’s a princely boutique hotel instead, with an elegant air, antique wooden furnishings and a host of stately salons." - Mr & Mrs Smith
