Restaurants and Bars

Breakfast is taken à la carte from a curated menu, while later in the day you can drop in for leisurely lunches, dinners and snacks. Highchairs are available for little ones, and there’s a smart casual dress code – beachwear isn’t permitted.
Up on the rooftop, El Cielo del Born is the hotel’s lounge bar, open roughly 08:00–23:00. It’s the place for barista coffee, sundowners and crafted cocktails with a view over Palma’s terracotta rooftops, with weekly DJ sessions in season creating an intimate, sky-high club feel.
