Frommer's "A 16th-century palace in the exact city center was vastly altered and extended in the 18th century with a Mallorcan courtyard." Full review
Michelin Guide "This hotel occupies a former 16C palace with a delightful lbizanstyle patio. The rooms are quiet with tasteful decor."
DK Eyewitness "The Marquis of Ferrandell’s town mansion, built in the 16th century and restored in the 18th, makes a splendid hotel."
Rough Guide Star
"Comfortable and justifiably popular hotel in an excellent downtown location."
Insight Guides "In a restored 16th-century palace just off Plaça Rei Joan Carles II, this hotel is one of Palma’s best bargains."
Fodor's "Guest rooms are modest, though some have the original coffered and painted ceilings. The rates are more than reasonable, and a buffet breakfast is included." Full review

"The four-pearl Sant Francesc Hotel Singular is a boutique property set in a meticulously renovated 19th-century mansion." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "If the exacting symmetry of a Piero Lissoni sofa or the measured restraint of an abstract artwork make your heart race, Sant Francesc Hotel Singular will thrill you with its big-deal statement pieces." Full review
Independent "A chic urban retreat...with showstopping bespoke art, rooftop bar and pool, and destination restaurant Quadrat, it’s no wonder visitors flock here year on year."
Michelin Guide "The rooms and suites apply a near-monochrome, minimalist scheme to the well-preserved architectural details...a glamorous little spa makes use of Anne Semonin products, alongside a fitness room" Full review
