Dining at Hotel Es Princep is in keeping with its refined, design-forward setting. Expect contemporary Mediterranean cuisine that leans on seasonal Mallorcan ingredients, along with a carefully curated wine list and inventive cocktails.

Mornings usually centre around an elegant breakfast service, especially if you choose Bed and Breakfast, with hot and cold options, artisan breads, cheeses and charcuterie. Later in the day you can graze on gourmet snacks and light bites, or linger over a more formal dinner in the main restaurant.

The showpiece is the rooftop terrace bar, where signature cocktails, local wines and chilled music meet panoramic views of the bay and skyline – the perfect place to start or end an evening exploring Palma’s tapas bars and nightlife.

Menu offerings and opening times can vary seasonally; some items and premium drinks may carry a supplement, payable locally.

The hotel’s elevated position really comes into its own on the rooftop, where a sleek outdoor infinity pool appears to spill towards the Bay of Palma. A fringe of loungers and daybeds lines the deck, creating a chic, grown-up sunbathing spot with city and sea views.

• Outdoor rooftop pool with infinity edge
