I loved my stay at Hotel Balear. The hotel itself (decor and architecture, fixtures) reminded me in the best way of childhood experiences in European hotels in the 70s and 80s. Everything was clean, nice, well kept, and comfortable (I slept very well). The single room was large, with plenty of storage space if one were staying for a week or so. I loved the hallways of the building and made a point of taking the stairs to look at the artwork. Breakfast was good, with many options. I especially appreciated the reading room/library/lounge on the second floor, as a pleasant place to escape to write in a journal or compose a postcard, or just read or simply sit on a comfortable sofa and look out the window.
The location is great if you're in Palma for the beach! Plenty of good restaurants and takeaway places around; noise was not an issue; the hotel is easy to find and has the front desk staffed 24 hrs.

Super close to the beach and available on a pinch for a 1 night lay over. The bed was memory foam so it retains some heat and the ac was at max with not enough impact for my comfort.
One extra odd blast from the past was using an actual key to enter my room. You had to deposit the key at the front desk to leave every time and collect it up returning. Inconvenient and the room was hella hot when I returned as the key was attached to the key fob for electricity.

It's close to the beach and they serve breakfast . No business center and they do not store luggage.

Close to the airport (10min by taxi). Very basic room (though it was huge). No drinking water in the room and quite dusty feeling. Lots of stairs to get to the room and not easy to find certain rooms! Quite pricey for what it is.

Upon our arrival we were met with the front desk. She was very kind and helpful.

Once we exited the elevator on our floor, we began to see the lack of care this building receives. The floor was dirty, dead bugs were present on the floor.

We entered our room and were taken-back by the dirty walls, stains on the furniture, and two moths flying around the room. It also had a damp old smell.

We were honestly grossed out and didn’t even want to sleep on the bed. My wife refused to get under the blankets and just laid on top.

Overall, I would not recommend staying here. This is a far cry from an 8.2 rating and is more akin to a shady motel.

***WARNING*** property is not what it looks like in the photos. Very dirty / unsanitary / unsafe for families. Although the staff is friendly the room was disgusting. Hairs (as in many) all over our sheets along with unknown residue. Mold in the bathrooms and on different parts of the rooms. Electrical problems, previous burn marks on fridge, when you shower dirty water starts filling the tub and comes out of the sink & bidet. It does not drain properly. The lights in the bathroom flickr because of exposed terminals.

Our flight arrived late in the night which is why we booked this hotel, because of its proximity to the airport. We got the kids ready for bed and the more we looked the worst it got. The staff was willing to switch us rooms at 1:30am but the other room was not much better. This is years of neglect not a random fluke.

I wish I would have looked more closely, I highly suggest anyone booking here go somewhere else for your safety and your money. Worst hotel my family and I have stayed at in.

Subpar yet expensive hotel

I would stay far away from this hotel. The front desk staff are incredibly rude. Our AC was “working” but even at the coldest and highest setting, it was blowing out hot air. The WiFi is very spotty and did not work half of the time. The only positive aspect is the hotel’s close proximity to the airport. We stayed here at the end of August 2025 and it was pricey for what it was.

5 min från boendet ligger busstationen som tar en direkt till Palma, finns även flera bussar att välja på! 35, 25, 23 och någon mer om jag inte minns fel!

Rummet var perfekt! Bra AC! Balkong, kyl och fräscht badrum! Ända negativa var att det är extremt lyhört, MEN inget vi störde oss på.

The hotel is in a fantastic location - just a short walk from the beach and surrounded by plenty of shops and restaurants. There’s also a long, scenic marine drive nearby which is perfect for running, cycling, or using a scooter. Great choice for anyone looking for a well-connected base to explore the area!

Check in, trajalo je 45 minuta da nas Sidney prijavi. Nije radila aplikacija za prijavu, ali on je uporno tvrdio da ne može drugačije, pa nakon dosta pokušaja je ipak odlučio da nas i on može prijaviti. Strašno! Uz to je bio drzak, bahat i arogantan. Uz to je bio ljut što to mora sam napraviti, te potom lupio dokumentom o pult. Nikada nisam vidjela tako neprofesionalno osoblje, a putujem negdje gotovo svaki mjesec u različitim zemljama.

Clean city hotel close to the airport

I have to rate this place as excellent as it had exactly what we were after and met all of our needs. We arrived on a late flight so we stayed here purely for convenience before heading to our resort the next day. The rooms were basic but clean and comfortable. It was very quiet and was near plenty of amenities with easy access to Palma.
We had a family room with separate bedroom which was perfect for travelling with two young children. The breakfast was good enough for what we needed.
There’s a taxi rank outside and it’s walking distance to the marina and beach which looked lovely although we did not stay around to explore this part of Palma.
We would stay here gain if arriving on a late flight.
