Hotel Sant Jaume

This small hotel is located in the old town of Alcudia. It has been carefully renovated without losing any of its original grace. Guests enjoy romantic summer evenings in the lovely patio where a Gaudi-esque fountain delivers a burble of sound, or in winter, in the cosy lounge where there is an open fireplace.

The six double bedrooms put a modern twist on the traditional decor of a Mallorcan "Casa Señorial" - a gentleman's house. They glow in an atmosphere of relaxation, while providing facilities like satellite television, a direct-dial telephone, minibar, air-conditioning, heating and bathroom luxuries such as bathrobes and a hair dryer.

Alcudia is a fabulous centre for a holiday in Mallorca, with easy access to miles of sandy beaches, rocky calas and cool mountains. There is an abundance of bars and restaurants nearby if you want them, yet you can easily retreat into your own world of peace and serenity.

Meals

There is no restaurant, but being in the centre of old Alcudia, there are abundant restaurants on the doorstep to suit all tastes. Breakfast is served in the breakfast room, or in the patio.
