Book a balcony room for outdoor space and an avenue outlook, but expect a busy-street setting.
What guests mention
Guests tend to come away impressed by Nakar’s immaculate condition, contemporary look and welcoming, capable staff. Its central position makes exploring Palma on foot particularly simple, and the rooftop terrace, small pool, spa, comfortable beds and well-regarded breakfast add to the appeal. Many feel the modern rooms and fairly priced food offer good value for a design-led city hotel; some also appreciate conveniences such as Apple TV. The main caveats are that the pool and wellness area are modest in scale, while a minority of guests experience noise from the surrounding streets.

Top tips
Choose a street-facing room for excellent soundproofing and minimal traffic noise.
Choose a jacuzzi room for a spacious, luxurious terrace, but avoid it if privacy is your priority.
Request a high-floor room for quieter surroundings and proximity to the restaurant; floor 7 has higher ceilings but may be warmer in summer.
Park in the nearby Passeig Mallorca public car park, as the hotel has no dedicated parking; expect about €27 per 24 hours.
Compare superior-room benefits before paying the premium, although superior rooms are generally more spacious.
Choose a suite for a spacious, quiet room with a bathtub.
Book a junior suite for more space than a standard room.
Bring plenty of sunscreen because the rooftop pool has no umbrellas or shaded areas.
Book a larger room if possible, especially when upgrading from the basic category.
Take the A1 airport bus to Passeig Mallorca; the stop is about a one-minute walk away and costs €5 one-way.
Use the hotel as a base for a central Palma city break.
Book directly with the hotel for the best deal and extra perks.
Request a rear- or courtyard-facing room to avoid overlooking the street or neighboring buildings.
Reserve the spa in advance because sessions are limited to four people or one-hour slots.
Arrive before 7:30pm at the rooftop bar, as capacity is limited and it gets busy.
Use a taxi from the airport for a quick, convenient transfer.
Try Bianco e Rossi in Santa Catalina for open-air dining and a lively atmosphere.
Book a non-standard room if having a bathroom is essential.
Avoid room 76 beneath the restaurant unless staying on a Sunday, when the restaurant is closed.
Avoid room 73 because of a reported toxic-mold smell.
Avoid room 45.
Avoid room 19 if you do not want to pay extra for a jacuzzi terrace.
Choose room 74 for a very quiet room without a balcony.
Choose room 67 when booking a superior room.
Choose room 28 for a quiet room with an excellent shower, but no bath or view.
Choose room 42 for a quiet, clean room with a double balcony.
Book room 34 for a highly regarded stay.
Choose a corner room for more space and natural light.
Order the delicious Mallorcan Tinto.
Try CUIT, the restaurant on the eighth floor.
Visit La Paloma restaurant for a worthwhile meal.
Visit La Rosa restaurant, about a ten-minute walk from the hotel.
Book cathedral tickets online in advance to skip long queues.
Request early check-in in advance.
Pack fewer toiletries because the hotel provides shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, shower gel, a toothbrush, and toothpaste.
Use the gym early because the small space accommodates only about one or two people comfortably.
Use the sightseeing bus stop directly outside the hotel.
Do not dive into the pool.
Use the rooftop pool earlier in the day, as the area becomes busy during the afternoon.
Reach the rooftop around noon to secure a comfortable lounge chair.
About Nakar Hotel
Nakar Hotel brings a polished, contemporary edge to Palma, pairing sleek design with the sort of small comforts that make a city stay feel easy. Its 57 rooms are technology-minded and restful rather than flashy, while the rooftop terrace, compact pool and spa provide welcome places to pause between sightseeing. It has an intimate, grown-up feel that works particularly well for couples, though families looking for a smart city base will also find it convenient.
You are on Avenida Jaime III, one of central Palma’s liveliest thoroughfares, with the Old Town, cathedral, shops and Santa Catalina all within easy reach. This is a strong choice for a weekend escape or a first visit to Mallorca’s capital, especially if being able to walk to restaurants and landmarks matters more than having a large resort-style pool. The rooftop and spa are thoughtful extras, and the hotel’s restaurant makes staying in an appealing option too.
Guests regularly admire the spotless presentation, fashionable interiors and genuinely helpful team. Beds, breakfast and in-room touches such as Apple TV get frequent praise, as does the quiet feel of many rooms despite the central setting. A few visitors find the pool and spa smaller than expected, and occasional street noise can intrude, but the prevailing view is of a well-run, comfortable hotel in an excellent Palma location.
