Sa Rota d'en Palerm Hotel
Finca hotel with apartments in rural Mallorca
Away from tourist resorts and densely built up areas, this hotel is a 18th-century stately residence in a picturesque area of the centre of Mallorca. Built on a hill overlooking a fertile valley and the northern mountain range of the island, the house is surrounded by 28 hectares of fig trees, almond trees, carob trees, fruit trees and a forest of oaks and pine trees.
The house and its annexe buildings, today converted into five apartments (one of them with two bedrooms) and 3 double rooms, have been carefully restored using materials typical of the indigenous architecture and preserving its original features. The rooms are decorated in the typical authentic Mallorcan style, both simple and traditional, with homemade materials and antique furniture restored by the owner of the house.
Beautiful panoramic views of the countryside and mountains can be admired from all the terraces and bedroom windows. The apartments are equipped with sitting room, bathroom and equipped kitchen, air conditioning / heating, hairdryer, satellite television, and safe.
Breakfast,either served in the stately dining room in the main house or outside when the good weather starts, gives the visitor the opportunity to taste the homemade jams and cakes made by the owner of the house from homegrown products. Fresh fruit juice, squeezed from recently picked fruit, and the famous Majorcan sobrasadas and ensaimada are well worth trying too.
There is the possibility of organizing typical meals at the hotel, should guests previously request this.
