We stayed at Ca’n Abril for 5 nights in July on the last leg of our two week holiday in Majorca. It was everything we had hoped for & lived up to all we had read about by previous reviewers. The owners obviously take a pride in their hotel and in giving a warm welcome aiming to make guests feel comfortable without being obtrusive.
We opted for a superior double as it had air-conditioning. It was beautiful, traditionally & comfortably furnished with a large modern bathroom. The room had three windows, two full length shuttered windows which looked out onto the narrow street.
The street it was situated in was just a short walk from the main square in Soller & we enjoyed strolling down for an early evening drink opting to make use of Bar Turisimo, very popular with locals, just off the square, however with plenty to see as the trams ran past the outside seating area on the way to the station.
Pascal, the owner, provided both useful suggestions for places to visit up & down the west coast & ideas for where to eat on an evening. As we had a car we very much used the hotel as a base & explored the area around Soller & that side of the island fully. Pascal also directed us to a free carpark further up the street within walking distance of the hotel. We were fortunate each time on our return to be able to find a space, however there is also a paying car park that Pascal can make available if required. It did take us a couple of days & attempts to get our bearings as Soller has a one way system & plenty of similar looking narrow streets, however we soon got the hang of it! Prior to our stay Pascal was in email contact & kindly sent us directions to Ca’n Abril which proved very helpful.
Initially it seemed to us as if it had always been a hotel, however there was a rolling slideshow on a laptop computer on the reception desk, which, when we took the time to study, made us realise the hard work & care that had gone into renovating a large old Soller townhouse to make it into the comfortable & tranquil establishment it now is. I really hope we will be able to return there again in the future!
