What guests mention
Guests tend to be won over by this refined former convent’s peaceful character, handsome design and unusually quiet old-town setting. Service is a standout, with staff frequently described as genuinely attentive and willing to help beyond the basics. Rooms are widely considered smart, comfortable and very well kept, while breakfast, the Marc Fosh restaurant and rooftop area add to the appeal. The pool is appreciated for unwinding after Palma sightseeing, though several visitors find it rather small. Minor practical grumbles include requests for additional towels, but satisfaction is overwhelmingly high.

About Convent de la Missió, Grand Luxury Boutique
Set within a sensitively restored 17th-century convent, Convent de la Missió pairs Palma’s historic character with a polished, art-minded boutique feel. The mood is hushed rather than showy: elegant interiors, landscaped courtyards and thoughtfully styled spaces make it feel like a retreat tucked into the city. Its small scale adds to the sense of privacy, while details such as the sauna, quality toiletries and rooftop terrace reinforce the indulgent side of a stay here.
The hotel sits on a quiet lane in Palma’s old town, surrounded by the narrow streets, galleries, bars and restaurants that make this part of Mallorca’s capital so enjoyable to explore on foot. Many key sights are only a few minutes away, making it particularly well suited to couples, food-focused breaks and anyone wanting central access without the bustle at the door. Marc Fosh, the hotel’s Michelin-starred restaurant, is a major draw, and some rooms offer private terraces.
Guests regularly praise the warm, proactive team, from concierge help to the welcoming arrival, and describe rooms as spacious, immaculate and stylish. Breakfast earns plenty of enthusiasm, while the rooftop pool is valued as a relaxing post-sightseeing spot, even if its compact proportions mean it is more for a cooling dip than serious swimming. A handful of guests would welcome a more generous towel supply, but the overriding impression is of an exceptionally calm, well-run Palma hideaway.
