Mallorca, a land of contrasts, is still capable of surprising even those who know it well. Beyond the beaches and cliffs, in the heart of the Sóller valley, a hotel proposal with deep roots in the island's history flourishes: three small hotels with character - Hotel Can Abril, Casa Bougainvillea and Solleric Petit Hotel - that share the same essence, born from the renowned Hotel Saratoga in Palma.
Founded in 1962, the Hotel Saratoga was one of the pioneers of quality urban tourism in the Balearic capital. Today, its legacy beats strongly in these three unique accommodations, managed by the same families that turned that hotel of jazz, art and elegance into a benchmark of hospitality.
A legacy that reinvents itself in the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range
The story of these families is the story of a vision: to offer an authentic, close and characterful hospitality experience. After decades of success in Palma, the project evolves northwards, to the privileged surroundings of Sóller, where nature, calm and authenticity become the focus.
This is how these three accommodations with their own personality were born, different in style and approach, but united by the same philosophy: a taste for detail, a love for Mallorca, a friendly service and a sincere commitment to quality. Three different ways of experiencing Sóller, with the same common thread: hospitality with soul.
The Hotel with the most character is Hotel Can Abril which is located in a carefully restored old Majorcan manor house. Its stone walls, high ceilings with wooden beams and a cosy inner courtyard create an atmosphere that combines tradition and comfort.
This boutique hotel, with a refined rustic aesthetic, offers tastefully decorated rooms and a peaceful and authentic relaxing experience. It is ideal for those seeking the essence of a mountain village with all the comforts of modern life. Breakfast in the courtyard, surrounded by plants and silence, is one of those moments that invites you to slow down and simply enjoy.
In a quiet street, in the shadow of the mountains, lies Casa Bougainvillea, an intimate retreat wrapped in flowers, lemon trees and the unmistakable scent of the Mediterranean. This small hotel is perfect for those looking for a close, simple and cosy stay, with a strong sense of home.
Here, every guest is treated as part of the family. Its bougainvillea-covered courtyard is the heart of the place: a lively, colourful corner where homemade breakfasts are served with local produce and where time seems to stand still. Thanks to its location, it is also an ideal starting point to discover the Serra de Tramuntana, both for those who enjoy hiking and for those who simply wish to connect with nature at their own pace. The rooms, decorated in soft colours and natural materials, reinforce this feeling of warmth and serenity.
The most modern and unique, the Solleric Petit Hotel, represents a contemporary vision of Mallorcan hospitality. This hotel is committed to careful design, the finest materials and a refined aesthetic that does not compromise on the local soul.
Located right in the centre of Sóller, on Carrer de Sa Lluna, its bright and functional spaces are designed for relaxation. It is the ideal choice for those who value architecture, culture and direct contact with the essence of the place.
The three hotels share the same family roots and a way of understanding tourism based on proximity, real sustainability and respect for the environment. Without large structures or automatisms, they offer a hospitality cultivated for more than 60 years, where the guest is treated as a guest, not as a number. At Can Abril, Casa Bougainvillea and Solleric Petit Hotel there is a passion for Mallorca, for attention to detail and for offering an authentic experience. They are a reflection of Sóller, of the Tramuntana and of a history that began at the Hotel Saratoga and which is still alive today, faithful to its roots.
