Request a high-floor, sea- or harbour-facing room with a balcony—especially on floors 4 or 5—for better views; front rooms can be noisy.
Guests tend to appreciate Hotel Feliz for its intimate design-hotel atmosphere, helpful location near the harbour and pleasing views from the upper terrace. The rooftop area, balconies and sea-facing rooms receive particular attention, while many visitors also mention the breakfast and easy bus access into Palma. It is generally seen as a stylish, good-value city base rather than a resort: the rooftop pool is small, and those wanting extensive facilities or a large beachside pool may find it limited.

Hotel Feliz is a compact, personality-filled stay with a distinctly Scandinavian edge: bright rooms, clean-lined furnishings and a sociable mix of lounge, cocktail bar and outdoor terraces. Its real calling card is the rooftop, where a small cooling pool and broad views across Palma Bay make it especially appealing for a sunset drink or a lazy break between sightseeing sessions.
The hotel sits beside Palma’s harbour, placing waterfront walks, marina restaurants and city bus connections close at hand. Palma’s historic centre is within easy reach, while Bellver Forest is a handy option for a greener morning stroll. Cala Major’s beach lies roughly a mile away. It suits couples, solo travellers and design-minded visitors who prefer a smaller base over a large resort; rooms include flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi and comfortable contemporary interiors, with some categories offering balconies or bay-facing outlooks.
Guests regularly single out the friendly boutique feel, the top-floor terrace and harbour views as highlights. Breakfast is often part of the conversation too, as is the convenience of getting around by bus. The pool is best thought of as a compact place to cool off rather than somewhere to spend the whole afternoon, but the setting gives it more charm than its size suggests.
