Taking its name from the area of Palma de Mallorca where it's located, the Hotel Armadams is a city hotel just one block back from the sea front promenade overlooking the harbour and marina. In fact, you can ride the hotel elevator down to level -4, through the underground parking, and directly out onto the Paseo Maritimo.

This part of the city is perhaps a little less interesting than the old town, but that's only a short walk away, as is the resurgent area of Santa Catalina, with its ever-increasing new restaurants, bars and night life. On the promenade itself, Aquiara, the latest venture by Koldo Royo, is a must if you want incomparable food prepared by one of Spain's top chefs, and for lovers of Indian food, Baisakhi is just a few steps further along the Paseo.
