What guests mention
Travellers tend to rate Icon Rosetó highly for its excellent old-town setting, where dining, sights and nightlife are close by but the hotel itself feels pleasantly removed from the bustle. They like the immaculate, modern spaces, characterful building, courtyard and rooftop dip pool, while breakfast receives frequent praise. Staff are usually described as warm and helpful. On the other hand, rooms can be on the small side, occasional noise and uneven service arise, and some question the value or limited amenities.
What guests who stayed here recommend
Real advice grouped by theme — drawn from guest reviews of Icon Rosetó.
Top tips
Request a terrace or balcony room, preferably overlooking the courtyard for a quieter outlook.
Ask the staff for Palma recommendations; they can suggest restaurants and prepare printed information.
Request a higher-floor room; third-floor rooms can offer rooftop city views, while higher suites may reduce noise.
Request Room 305 for Cathedral views and a beautiful exposed wooden-beam ceiling.
Book directly through the hotel website for the best rates and deals.
Walk out and visit Palma Cathedral while exploring the surrounding culture.
Ask for a kettle and bring tea bags, since the coffee machine is not ideal for making tea.
Use the gorgeous rooftop terrace for Cathedral views, since the hotel has no pool.
Look for the hotel on a small back street just off the main street, near Plaça de Mercat; follow the signposts.
Choose a first-floor room for a terrace; Deluxe Rooms on this floor are especially appealing.
Expect narrow streets and ask taxi drivers to drop you on the main road if they cannot enter.
Use the central location to reach restaurants and the main tourist areas on foot.
Skip renting a car if convenient; the main bus station is close and serves many routes.
Try Little Italy or Agra Indian restaurant, both recommended nearby.
Request Room 105 for a terrace overlooking the walled garden.
Expect limited views and nearby buildings in this historic city; prioritize a courtyard outlook if that concerns you.
Request a Cathedral-view room if the outlook matters.
Choose a street-facing room for more quiet, but expect less of a view.
Choose the ground-floor Minorca room for an especially attractive stay.
Avoid Room 108.
Avoid Room 104.
Avoid Room 209 if you are a light sleeper because the nearby fire door slams.
Request a named room, such as Menorca, instead of a numbered room.
Avoid Room 107 when booking a Superior Room with Terrace.
Study the hotel website and local history before arrival so you understand the property and its surroundings.
Check the breakfast timings before planning your morning.
Request larger towels and a box of tissues if needed.
Arrange your own taxi instead of booking through Booking.com, which may cost around twice as much.
Take the bus outside the hotel to Ses Illetas and Balneario Illetas beach club.
About Icon Rosetó
Icon Rosetó feels like a quietly stylish pause in the middle of Palma: a historic-minded hotel with clean-lined, contemporary interiors and a notably peaceful atmosphere. The courtyard brings a little breathing room to a city stay, while the rooftop terrace and small plunge pool offer an appealing place to cool off after a day out. It is polished without being overly formal, making it a comfortable choice for a short city escape or a work-focused stay with some character.
Set on a calm lane in Palma’s old town, the hotel puts the city’s restaurants, bars, shops and key sights within easy walking distance. That central position is its real strength: guests can spend the day exploring Mallorca’s capital without relying heavily on transport, then return to a more tucked-away setting. It suits couples, solo travellers and business visitors who value an attractive central base over lots of in-room space.
Guests regularly praise the spotless presentation, smart design and welcoming reception team, and breakfast is often singled out as a particularly strong start to the morning. Many also appreciate how tranquil the hotel feels despite its location. The trade-offs are worth knowing: some rooms feel compact, noise can occasionally travel, and a few visitors feel certain facilities or the overall price do not quite match expectations. Streets nearby can also seem a little dim after dark.
