ARA Alcudia

Our 3 night stay at Ara was perfect.
Paco was the most friendly host, contactable at all times of the day, so informative and helpful. We appreciated his suggestions of where to visit and which restaurants to eat at it — service was truly unmatched.
We loved our buffet breakfast, the location was sensational and so was our room. Perfect size, so peaceful at night despite how close you are to the centre.
We can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful boutique hotel with 5-star staff. Thank you Paco & Catalina for the incredible hospitality and customer service. The junior suite was spacious, comfortable, and clean for our 4 night stay.

A beautifully renovated Mallorcan hotel within the city walls an easy 5 min walk from the bus stop and car parks. 10 rooms tastefully decorated with all mod cons situated in a buzzing alley with two high quality restaurants next door but which becomes calm and quiet from 10 at night — enough to sleep with our windows open. Lovely patio areas on each of the three floors to sit out and read in the sunshine at the back of the building. Breakfast was calm, plentiful and good quality taken on the ground floor.
But the best experience of all was the care and help given by Paco on arrival and throughout the stay. He recognises the type of visitor you are and provides relevant advice on what to do and where to go. He provided us with two high quality walks with interesting lunch spots and enabled us to thoroughly enjoy our three night stay in Alcudia.

We stayed at Hotel Ara in Alcudia for three nights and absolutely loved it. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by a very friendly receptionist who made us feel right at home. The rooms were spotless and comfortable, the location was perfect, and the breakfast was delicious and well-prepared. We also received plenty of great local tips about the town and nearby restaurants, which made our stay even more enjoyable. We would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Alcudia!

An appealing small-scale lodging, squeezed into a quiet corner of the bustling tourist town of Alcudia; warm and professional welcome from Paco, ready to help with advice and assistance. Excellent buffet breakfast (but no cooked options). The Junior Suite is apparently the largest room, but it just means there's room to fit a small sofa in (not a separate lounge area). Manage your expectations (noting that Mallorca is not a cheap destination), and you'll love it.

This hotel simply is fantastic. You should not hesitate to book whatsoever.
The staff: generous, kind and welcoming. The breakfast is well thought out and more than enough options to choose from. Coffee machine very good.
Location: Fantastic, you are in the center of old town Alcudia with so many great restaurant options and great boutiques with a lot of offerings. Jewelry, clothing, normal gift shops, it is all within the hotel’s distance.
Stay here if you can, you will not regret it!

We spent one night at the hotel yesterday and we had a brilliant experience. Great service from the reception with help whenever we needed. Rooms were modern, quiet and with laid back vibe. We really enjoyed the breakfast.

If we could leave 6 stars we would. We loved the room. It is built in the old city so it literally has 500 year old walls. The hotel was perfect. The bed was comfortable, and the bathrooms functioned well. There was a fridge in the room which was nice. Free parking just a few minutes from the Hotel. The staff that checked us in and out was excellent. My Spanish is poor and they accommodated us with zero problems. They had a complimentary breakfast which was fresh and well stocked. Again I can’t stress how great this place was. If you get the chance to stay here take it.

Beautiful hotel in a perfect location, right in the middle of the old town. All the staff were super friendly and helpful, with great recommendations for food. They were incredibly accommodating and helped store our bike boxes safely during our stay. We stayed in the room with the small pool, which was perfect after a day’s cycling to refresh our legs.
Good breakfast included to set you up for a ride.
Highly recommend!

A superb small hotel right in the centre of Alcudia.
We spent seven nights here and we thoroughly enjoyed it.
The hotel is quite small and is situated in a quiet street in old Alcudia.
The welcome is warm and genuine. We had room 1 (possibly called romantic room). This had a small plunge pool — too cold in April unfortunately. The room was spotless, although relatively small. The bed was very comfortable.
Breakfast is excellent, minor changes each day.
The street is pedestrianised, but parking is less than five minutes away — a flat walk, and free (but very dusty).
We would highly recommend staying here if you want to visit Alcudia.

Beautiful hotel in the heart of the old town with brilliant recommendations for places to visit and restaurants by Paco. Highly recommended.

This is an excellent hotel. It should be five star but is small and doesn’t have gym facilities and the like. We’d stay there again in a heartbeat. It’s in the old town so you do need to park outside the town walls and walk to it.

Great place to stay, everything accessible. Lovely and quiet, felt very safe and secure. Staff very helpful and friendly, recommending where and what to do. Rooms pleasant and clean. Food very good. Lots of things to do close by, including excellent restaurant a couple of doors up.

A beautiful hotel within alcudia historic town. The service is excellent, and the staff are great. It is well worth a visit.
Thank you for making our stay very enjoyable.

Don’t believe in the recommendations from the staff. We parked our car in the place that was sent by pictures from the hotel and we got a fine of 162€. At check in we asked if it was ok to park there and also because we don’t speak Spanish so we we could not understand the papers that were at the parking lot and the lady from the reception told us several times to don’t worry, that was ok and to park there. When we went to the police station to pick the car they told us that the hotel should have told us that place would be forbidden for this day as they were telling everyone since 3 days ago (much before we arrived)
When we said to the hotel, they said it was not their fault and basically did not care, well if you are not sure you should not tell your clients to park there and ensure that it is fine! It is best to don’t tell nothing then what you did!
Breakfast was ok.

There are no words to describe this incredible place but let's try. This is with no competition on this green planet the most welcoming host. Besides this the interior is selected so well balanced with the heritage and history of the island. The breakfast is a fine selection of tasteful treats without being opulent. Our recommendation is to book longer as planned because you definitely want to stay.

We were guests at the ARA for a short trip and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Catalina and her son were incredibly attentive and gave us great local tips. The hotel itself is located right in the old town, it's very beautiful, with a lot of attention to detail. All in all, we felt very comfortable and would love to come back.
