Boutique Hotel Bosch

Boutique Hotel Bosch is a small hotel at Carrer de Ca'n Brondo 7 in the Born area of Palma's old town, Mallorca, Spain, a short walk from the Passeig des Born. Palma Cathedral is about 0.4 km away in a straight line, and the Plaça Major, the harbour and the boutiques of Avinguda Jaume III are all within a few minutes on foot. The hotel's website is hotelbosch.com. The building is a traditional old-town property in a quiet side street, and the hotel sits in the boutique category with rates of about €110 to €260 per night, which is relatively moderate for the central location. Rooms are offered as double rooms, superior rooms and suites. As a small hotel, it offers a personal service character and is well suited to couples and independent travellers who prefer an intimate base to a large hotel. Palma's old town is compact and largely pedestrian, so most of the main sights can be reached on foot within ten to fifteen minutes: the Gothic cathedral La Seu, the Almudaina Palace, the Passeig des Born, the Plaça Major and the tapas bars of Santa Catalina and Sant Miquel. Cars are restricted in much of the historic centre, and many streets are narrow, cobbled and uneven. Palma airport (PMI) lies roughly 8 km east of the centre and is linked by the A1 bus and by taxi, while the main bus and train station at Plaça d'Espanya is a short walk or taxi ride away. The Balearic climate means summers are hot and busy, with spring and autumn offering milder temperatures and easier sightseeing; air conditioning is therefore a practical feature in July and August. The Born district is known for its tree-lined promenade, fashion shops and restaurants, and in the evening the nearby streets fill with locals and visitors enjoying tapas and cocktails. Guests should check with the hotel about breakfast arrangements and any rooftop or terrace facilities, since small boutique properties vary. Because streets in the old town are narrow, taxis may drop guests at the nearest accessible point, and luggage may need to be carried a short distance. Prices rise in peak summer and at Easter, and the winter months offer the lowest rates alongside quieter sightseeing.
