Sant Francesc Hotel Singular
mallorca, spain · ★★★★★
El veredicto
¿Vale la pena para su luna de miel?
Sant Francesc Hotel Singular is Palma's defining boutique address — a 42-room 19th-century neoclassical mansion on Plaça Sant Francesc, two minutes' walk from the Cathedral La Seu, transformed in 2015 by Asturian designer Lorenzo Castillo with a respectful mix of preserved frescoes, Carrara marble staircases, and contemporary art. The rooftop plunge pool overlooks the Sant Francesc basilica's medieval cloister; the Singular Spa occupies what were once the mansion's wine cellars; and Quadrat, the central courtyard restaurant under a glass roof, has become one of Palma's serious dinner addresses. For honeymoon couples who want to base themselves in the heart of one of the Mediterranean's most underrated capitals — walking to the cathedral, the Born boutiques, the seafront promenade, and the city's best dinner tables — and supplement with day trips by car to the Tramuntana and coves, this is the right Mallorca address.

Recomendación de habitación
Qué habitación reservar
A Junior Suite Plaça is the honeymoon room — a corner suite on the upper floor with French doors opening to a Juliet balcony over Plaça Sant Francesc and the basilica's medieval façade, a deep marble tub, and the hotel's signature dark-wood and Carrara details. For ultimate splurge, the Sant Francesc Suite at 90 sqm occupies the mansion's original principal floor with two balconies and a separate sitting room. Avoid the standard Singular rooms facing the inner courtyard — they are beautiful but lack the city-square magic that defines this hotel.

Día a día
Su itinerario de luna de miel de 7 noches
Arrival at Plaça Sant Francesc
Palma airport is 15 minutes from the hotel. Check into your Junior Suite Plaça, take the lift to the rooftop for sunset cocktails as the cathedral and basilica light up, and dinner at Quadrat — chef Òscar Cerdá's Mediterranean kitchen in the glass-roofed courtyard.
Cathedral & the Born
La Seu opens at 10am — go early for the Gaudí-restored canopy and the Miquel Barceló chapel. Lunch at Marc Fosh (Michelin-starred). Afternoon walking the Born's high-end boutiques in converted palaces — Loewe, Rialto Living, the Joan Miró Foundation a short taxi away. Aperitivo at Hotel Cort's rooftop, dinner at Adrián Quetglas (Michelin-starred, Mallorcan-Russian fusion).
Day at the Coast — Cap Rocat for Lunch
A 15-minute drive south to Cap Rocat for a long lunch on the fortress terrace overlooking Palma Bay (open to non-guests by reservation). Afternoon at the Es Trenc beach (a 45-minute drive south-east) — Mallorca's longest natural sandy beach. Return for a quiet dinner at the rooftop bar of Sant Francesc.
Tramuntana — Valldemossa, Deià, Sóller
Drive 45 minutes north into the Tramuntana — Chopin's monastery at Valldemossa, the cliff-edge village walk in Deià, lunch at El Olivo at Belmond La Residencia, the wooden tram down to Port de Sóller. Late return for a final cocktail on the Sant Francesc rooftop.
Pool & Spa Day
A full day inside the hotel — morning at the rooftop plunge pool with breakfast service, a 90-minute couples treatment in the wine-cellar spa, long lunch at Quadrat, and an afternoon nap. Dinner at Forn de Sant Joan in the Born — a long-running market-fish bistro that locals love.
Boat Day from Port d'Andratx
A 30-minute drive west to Port d'Andratx for a day-charter along the south-west coast — Sa Dragonera nature reserve, the cliffs of Cala Egos, lunch anchored off Camp de Mar. Return for an aperitivo on the rooftop as the cathedral lights come on.
Slow Morning & Departure
Breakfast on the rooftop overlooking the basilica cloister, a final walk to La Seu before the cruise crowds arrive, and the 15-minute transfer to the airport. Sant Francesc is the rare city hotel where guests routinely come back the same year.
Evaluación honesta
Lo que debe saber antes de reservar
Sant Francesc is a city-centre hotel — there is no beach and no sea view. Couples wanting both city and sea should pair it with 3–4 nights at a coastal property (Hospes Maricel or Cap Rocat) for a split-stay.
The hotel sits on an active city square; Plaça-facing rooms have light city-square noise in the early morning (markets) and evening (locals dining). Triple-glazed windows handle most of it; couples sensitive to noise should request the inner-courtyard Singular rooms instead.
The rooftop pool is small (plunge-scale rather than swim-laps); the hotel uses it more for cooling-off and sunset cocktails than serious swimming.

FAQ
Preguntas frecuentes
Good for honeymooners?
Excellent for couples who want city-and-culture honeymoon rather than beach-resort. Palma is one of the Mediterranean's most underrated capitals — walkable old town, three Michelin-starred restaurants, serious art, and 20-minute access to Tramuntana and coast. Sant Francesc is the city's defining boutique address and a perfect base.
Best time to visit?
April–June and September–November are ideal — pleasant city walking, terrace-dining weather, and the cooler months let you enjoy Palma's gastronomy without summer heat. The hotel stays open year-round, unusual for Mallorca; winter is a serious option for a city-focused honeymoon.
Book in advance?
Junior Suite Plaça categories need 3 months for high season; the Sant Francesc Suite books 4–6 months ahead in summer. Shoulder months often have availability within a few weeks.
Adults-only?
No, but the city setting, design-focus, and absence of family facilities mean it skews heavily adult and couples. Children are welcome but the property is not designed with family activities.
Best room type?
Junior Suite Plaça on the upper floor for French-door views over the basilica and city square. For honeymoon splurge, the Sant Francesc Suite has two balconies on the original principal floor.
How to get there?
Palma de Mallorca (PMI) is 15 minutes by taxi to the hotel. Direct flights across Europe make Sant Francesc one of the most convenient luxury city hotels in the Mediterranean. The hotel arranges transfers for around €60 one-way.
