Hm Palma Blanc, Palma de Mallorca

Book breakfast with your stay for freshly made smoothies, pastries and a wide choice of fresh food.

Expect a small, crowded rooftop pool with limited umbrellas, especially from around 2 pm.

Bring your own coffee, preferred tea and drinking water; rooms may provide only herbal tea and no coffee facilities.

Arrive at the rooftop pool before opening to queue for a sunbed, though spaces may also free up later.

Use the spa and spa pool; access is free and the facilities are well regarded.

Book a superior double or larger room for significantly more space without much extra cost.

Request an inner-courtyard room for a better view and less noise; exterior rooms may face the surrounding mesh.

Use the spa from 9–10 am or during the final hour before closing if children need access.

Consider Hotel Cappuccino instead if you can afford a higher-end five-star hotel.

Consider a junior suite for a more comfortable stay.

Ask for a suite if possible.

Request a room away from the road side.

Bring a USB charger or adapter because rooms may not have USB ports.

If you arrive before 3 pm, leave your luggage and explore Palma because check-in is busy and rooms may not be ready.

Watch for shower flooding and limited room layouts when choosing your room.

Use the hotel car park behind the building, but approach carefully through the small street and tight entrance; spaces are generous inside.

Avoid renting a car if possible; parking and driving are difficult, and Palma offers many alternative transport options.

Carry some cash because certain buses accept cash only.

Pre-book a taxi during tourist season because airport and local taxi queues can be long.

Visit the pool in the late afternoon for a better chance of finding a sunbed.

Explore the restaurant-lined street between the hotel and Palma town for restaurants, secret bars and indoor markets.

Check the Palma open-top bus tour timetable carefully; service effectively runs from 11:00 to 18:00 and may skip advertised stops.
