An 18th-century palace in La Lonja
Palacio Can Marqués occupies a former palace in Palma’s historic La Lonja quarter. The building dates to the second half of the 18th century and was adapted into a hotel. Its entrance is understated, but inside, the scale of the rooms becomes clear: a light-filled atrium rises above the central staircase, and the ceilings reach 11 metres.
Baroque vaulted ceilings and marble pillars mark the lobby. The inverted imperial staircase is one of the building’s distinctive architectural details, connecting the palace’s grand interior with its upper floors. The hotel is about a five-minute walk from Palma’s port, with the old town, marina and cathedral area nearby.
Suites and shared spaces
The hotel is made up of suites, with contemporary themes, individual colour schemes and carefully chosen furnishings set against the older architecture. Design details described for the rooms include Murano lighting, handwoven rugs, custom furniture and international artwork. Some suites have kitchenettes; the Cathedral suite is one of the named room options.
A garden courtyard provides an outdoor place to pause within the hotel. The roof terrace gives guests another place to sit, while the property also has a gym, sauna and treatment room. Free Wi-Fi, room service and laundry service are among the listed amenities. An airport shuttle is available as a hotel amenity, though the details are not specified here.
Dining at the palace
The courtyard restaurant serves local dishes at breakfast and has fine dining in the evening. One menu item noted at the restaurant is blueberry risotto. A Champagne bar is located by the check-in area, and The Merchants, a steak and grill restaurant, is also based at the hotel. These give guests options to eat or have a drink without leaving the palace.
The setting is a particular draw for travelers who want historic architecture alongside hotel comforts. The location also makes it practical to explore La Lonja on foot, with the port a short walk away and nearby galleries, design studios and bars in the historic quarter.
