At a Glance
Hidden away on a hard-to-find back street in Palma’s Old Town is this chic boutique hotel.
Review
The owners of Convent de la Missiò have tastefully filled this former convent with unique modern art objects and created fourteen individual all-white guest rooms that feel both modern and calm. The second-floor living room is the chill-out room of choice, with a fireplace-cum–art installation taking up one wall, and white cloudlike rugs, huge luxurious beanbags, floor lights that resemble sculptures and a scattering of great design books. Another reason to stay here is the popular gourmet Refectori restaurant, with its stylish black bar and exotic hidden outdoor terrace. It’s very popular with a fashionable local crowd, which dines on creative dishes such as watermelon gazpacho and Iberian tenderloin stuffed with asparagus and roasted strawberries.
Who Should Stay
Those looking for a more modern experience in Palma will prefer this hotel over the Can Cera.
