Antiguo Brondo is worth booking if you want the cheapest well-located room in Palma's old town and are happy with self check-in and no confirmed breakfast. Light sleepers and anyone wanting hotel services should look at our other two picks.

This is our Budget pick in Palma. It works for couples and solo travellers who want to walk everywhere in the old town and spend their money on food and sights, not on the room. As the name says, check-in is self-service, so you will deal with messages and codes more than with a front desk.
Skip it if you want a hotel experience. There is no star rating, breakfast is not confirmed in our data, and listed facilities are limited to free Wi-Fi, air conditioning and a terrace. Light sleepers should also note the mixed comments on noise.
Location and getting around
The address is Carrer de Can Brondo 1, 07001 Palma de Mallorca. Palma Cathedral and the Royal Palace of La Almudaina are each 0.4 km away, about 5 minutes on foot. Guests describe the position as central, close to shops, restaurants and bus stops, and the location score is 9.8.
Bellver Castle is 2.6 km away, around 33 minutes on foot by straight-line estimate. That is far for most people, especially uphill, so plan on public transport or a taxi. Walking times are estimates, so allow extra time.
What guests say
The score is 8.7 out of 10 from 1,242 reviews. That is a good result, though in Palma's strong market it ranks 36th of 40 eligible properties in the provider sample. In other words, it is well liked, but many pricier places score higher.
Guests praise the location and the staff. Even with self check-in, the team is described as friendly, quick to answer messages and helpful with local advice. The weak point is quiet: the side-street setting feels peaceful to some, while others hear city noise.
Price and how it compares with our other picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 Nov, 2 adults, one room) was €110.86 a night, about €222 in total. The sample median was €237.52, so this is about 53% below the typical rate. These are reference prices, not live quotes; check today's price for your dates.
Casa Delmonte, our Best Value pick, was €225 a night and scores 9.9. Can Alomar Hotel, our 5-star Luxury pick, was €343.30 a night with a 9.6 score. Here you get a central room at less than half the cost of either, but with fewer services and a lower score.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 40 properties in Palma. After reserving the upscale choice, Antiguo Brondo had the lowest eligible reference price. With an 8.7 from over a thousand reviews and a 9.8 location score, it is a cheap option that guests still rate well, which is what the Budget slot needs.
Before you book
Read the self check-in instructions and arrival times carefully, especially for a late flight. Ask for a quieter room if noise worries you. Breakfast is not confirmed, so plan to eat out. Room size, renovation condition and cancellation terms have not been assessed, so check the room description and policy.
