    Hotel Portixol

    Posted by karl1969 5 June 2007

    A beautiful hotel about 20 - 25 minutes stroll along the coast from the cathedral (and a 5 minute bus ride into town).

    Modern but not cold or boring (Scando style).
    Lovely sized rooms (enough room for a big bed and sofa). Discreet TV hifi combo, with a free DVD and CD library (good selection too).

    Beautiful coastal views (amazing for the sunset).
    A good bar, great breakfast, great burgers (on room service - in fact the room service food is better than the main restaurant which was a bit nouvelle).

    Wonderful staff, just really super helpful.

    Bistro Santa Catalina

    Posted by karl1969 5 June 2007

    We went to Mallorca for 2 weeks and this was the best food we ate while we were there.

    It's a small restaurant, seating maybe 20 at the most - it's business card says, Bistro, Cocina de Mercado.

    The food was amazing - they have a fixed 5 course menu that changes each month for 22.50 Euros and it was just incredible: I remember mostly the caramelised pate, chicken and asparagus in filo, there was a fish dish, and a beautiful desert that had fresh strawberry or raspberry sorbet.

    Much better than the restaurant at Hotel Portixol by a coutry mile or three.

    I'm thinking of going back every month.

    15 C. Fabrica, and the phone number is 871 94 16 04
