Aristocratic manor showcase
A restored neoclassical manor centered around a traditional stone patio, where contemporary Spanish artwork meets sun-drenched sandstone arches.
“This may be an uber-chic urban bolthole, but it’s as cozy as a cashmere blanket.”

The rooms and suites apply a near-monochrome, minimalist scheme to the well-preserved architectural details.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet cobblestone alleys lead directly from Plaça de Sant Francesc to the Arab baths and Palma Cathedral in just five minutes.
The rooms
Minimalist French oak floors complement historic detailing, while select suites feature original nineteenth-century ceiling frescoes and private balconies overlooking the square.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The rooftop lap pool looks directly onto the sandstone walls of Sant Francesc Basilica and old town church spires.
The spa and gym
Treatment cabins overlook the garden courtyard for French skincare therapies, and a gym occupies the vaulted stone cistern below.
Quadrat Restaurant & Garden
Set in the former stables, tables open into a garden courtyard serving Mediterranean cuisine and Sóller red prawn rice.
Remaining unchanged for 135 years, the neoclassical mansion commanded a specially appointed team of creatives to carefully enhance the building’s authentic character.
At the table
The lobby bar pours craft cocktails beside the courtyard patio, and the rooftop bar serves drinks over the skyline.
How it began
Built in the nineteenth century for the aristocratic Alomar Femenía family, the palace was carefully converted into a boutique retreat in 2015.
