Frommer's Review

This 17th-century manor house next to a nature reserve nestles in a lush mountain valley 15km (9 miles) from Palma. It was converted from a private residence by David Stein, a California tycoon and art collector. Apart from the setting, the hotel boasts works by artists such as Hockney, Stella, and Christoph, and there's even a small Chagall on one wall. A classical Majorcan aristocratic sense of decoration has been followed faithfully, with white walls, stone floors, and dark-wood beams and shutters. The rooms are spacious, and the most idyllic corner units on the top floor have a southern exposure.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; outdoor pool; tennis court; health club; whirlpool; sauna; salon; room service; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning; rooms for those w/limited mobility

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
