Request a rear or pool-facing room for quieter nights, pool-and-mountain views and afternoon or evening sun; front rooms may have traffic noise.
What guests mention
Guests tend to love L’Avenida for its intimate mansion-house character, carefully retained architectural details and attractive mountain setting. The staff are widely seen as attentive and willing to help, while breakfast, the pool terrace and the calm garden are recurring highlights. Its position near Sóller’s main square is especially convenient for a short stay and the tram to the port. The most practical downside mentioned is the lack of a lift, which can make upper-floor rooms less suitable for some travellers.

What guests who stayed here recommend
Real advice grouped by theme — drawn from guest reviews of L’Avenida.
Book a balcony or private-terrace room for outdoor breakfasts, evening drinks, and pool views.
Request a ground-floor garden or pool room for direct pool access, breakfast tables and sunbeds; expect less light, limited privacy and sometimes no window.
Ask about stair-free entrance-level rooms if mobility is limited, because the historic building has no lift.
Choose a higher-floor rear room for better mountain views and privacy, but be prepared for more stairs.
Choose a top-floor or second-floor room for more space, light and mountain views, but avoid it if stairs are difficult; there is no elevator and terraces are uncommon.
Choose a garden room for direct pool access, privacy, and a private seating area, although these rooms are smaller.
Choose Room 3 for a particularly large, luxurious layout with a four-poster bed, high ceilings, and a huge bathroom.
Ask the hotel to match your priorities carefully, since room layouts, views, privacy, and outdoor space vary considerably.
Request Room 7 for spacious accommodation and excellent mountain views, but expect a top-floor climb.
Book a junior or grand suite for considerably more space and a special-occasion upgrade; keep suite windows closed if street noise bothers you.
Book a suite for substantially more space, with features such as a roll-top bath and double shower.
Choose a front or street-facing room for mountain views, large windows and morning sun, accepting that some rooms may hear traffic.
Check room details before booking if you need an opening window or bathtub, as garden rooms may offer neither.
Avoid pool-level rooms if you need maximum light or quiet sleep; they can be smaller and closer to pool activity.
Consider Room 4 for a bright, airy room with mountain views, but note that it faces the main road and has no bathtub.
Request a balcony room for extra space and tranquil pool views, but confirm whether the balcony is private.
Choose Room 1 for privacy and a secluded, private-pool atmosphere; it may be worth the extra cost.
Call the hotel directly to discuss your room preferences; the staff can help match the many different room layouts.
Check public parking opposite the main road and allow about 15 minutes to walk to the hotel.
Request Room 7 for a vast, well-appointed room, impressive views and a particularly good bathroom.
Request Room 3 for a large, spacious and very quiet stay.
Request Room 9 for excellent views, but expect a top-floor climb with many stairs.
Avoid duplex rooms if you prefer simpler access and layout.
Choose a room at the end of the reception-floor balcony for more privacy and less foot traffic.
Choose Room 4 for a spacious, quiet room with an excellent shower.
Choose whether to have breakfast inside or outside, as both options are available.
Be aware of the nursery next door when sunbathing, especially if you are recovering from a late night.
Pack mosquito repellent for Sóller if you are prone to bites.
Use one of the nearby bars, as the hotel itself does not have a bar.
Have lunch by the pool when you want to stay close to the hotel facilities.
Stop at Santo Cristo in Carrer de sa Lluna for a midday snack.
Book dinner at Nacarat in Carrer de sa Lluna, just off the main square.
Avoid bringing a large vehicle into the hotel street, as the narrow cobblestone road cannot accommodate it easily.
Turn right at Gran Via when driving, because the changed one-way system may send satellite navigation the wrong way.
Check whether you are comfortable with split-level access before booking a duplex room.
Bring earplugs or limit air-conditioning use if sensitive to noise, as the air-conditioning can be loud.
If driving, park free on the main road and walk about seven minutes to avoid car-park or meter charges.
About L’Avenida
L’Avenida brings a polished, grown-up edge to Sóller: a restored mansion with high ceilings, a sweeping marble staircase and thoughtfully mixed classic and eclectic furnishings. Original details give it real character, while the atmosphere stays intimate rather than grandiose. Rooms and suites lean into the setting, many looking out towards the Tramuntana mountains; suites add a freestanding bath alongside generous walk-in showers.
It sits in Sóller, around 30 minutes from Palma, close to the town’s main square and within easy reach of the tram towards the port. The secluded garden is a particular asset, with a sizeable pool, sun deck and terrace for leisurely lunches. This is a strong choice for couples or friends planning a stylish short break, especially those who prefer a small hotel to a larger resort. Do note that there is no lift, so guests with mobility concerns may wish to request a lower-floor room.
Guests particularly appreciate the warm, accommodating service, often remarking that requests are handled with genuine care. Breakfast earns frequent praise, as do the peaceful terrace, mountain outlook and beautifully preserved features. The smaller scale and central town setting are part of the appeal, making L’Avenida feel like a refined local base rather than a conventional beach hotel.
