Old Town

Palma’s Old Town is the most elegant and historic part of the capital. Grand architecture, impressive façades and centuries of history define its streets, with the cathedral overlooking the sea anchoring the Old Town as one of the island’s most powerful and recognisable landmarks. Behind these historic exteriors, many buildings have been carefully modernised, creating refined apartments and town palaces that combine period character with contemporary interiors. Old Town living is architectural, sophisticated and entirely walkable, with everything close at hand.

The Old Town is where Palma’s cultural, social and culinary life comes together.

Michelin star restaurants sit comfortably alongside long established local favourites and international dining, while an ever-growing collection of five star hotels continues to earn global recognition, including regular Condé Nast awards. Independent boutiques, galleries and bars give the area its authenticity, ensuring it never feels formulaic despite its sophistication. Hidden behind historic façades are beautiful courtyards, roof terraces and converted palaces, often set along quiet streets that lead into hidden squares with striking churches. Life here is enjoyed on foot wandering between cafés, restaurants, shops and the waterfront, with the beach only minutes away. The Old Town is timeless, elegant and genuinely lived in, offering one of the most refined urban lifestyles on the island.
