“Excellent value for a central location in Palma”
I stayed two nights at the Hotel Colon in March, choosing it based on TripAdvisor reviews. The location is particularly good if one is coming into the city, or exploring Mallorca by bus/train, as the station is about a 10 minute walk.
The hotel itself is very basic, but clean and well kept. The rooms are small, and have tiny bathrooms, but I even had a small terrace in mine. But the staff are friendly and very accommodating. There are some restauarnts nearby, but there are all fairly basic, and seem to be frequented by locals. The heart of Palma is about a 20-minute walk, so not too far for most people. What was great for me, is the number of small bakeries in the immediate neighbourhood, with great pies and pastries.
Overall, I was extremely happy with my choice, and would gladly return the next time I am in Palma.
