Highly recommended for those who want both of city and beach!
Our perception of the island is a mixture concept of local culture/history/food and beach resort. If you agree with this, then stay at this hotel and you can go to beaches by a rent-a-car (or you may wanna go to Valldemossa village to learn about the island's history) and at night you can walk from this hotel (which locates on the very center of Palma de Mallorca) to restaurants in the city, which, from our experience, serve much higher quality food than those near beaches. We've actually stayed at a different hotel near Port Adriano, though we had started to miss the city atmosphere just after we spent one day at this hotel near beach and yacht harbor.
This Hotel Can Alomar is the only place we've stayed within the city of Palma de Mallorca, although we're quite sure that this hotel is one of the best hotels in the city (or in the island more precisely). Our stay experience with this hotel is simply the best throughout our life - all hotel staff are very professional and kind, food/drinks from the second floor restaurant are just great, room/bed/bath were all clean and tidy, and again the location is literally on the heart of Palma de Mallorca.
On the way back to our home country Japan, we agreed that we'd like to come back to this beautiful island again in near future, and we realized that our happiest experience with this Hotel Can Alomar is now a major reason why we want to come back to Mallorca!!
