Mediterranean Travel Review

You can't afford to make a mistake on your holiday ...
You work hard. You don't want to be disappointed. You can't afford to make a mistake with precious free time. You don't have days to waste in a place that's not up to your standards. It's not the money, it's your life that is wasted when you go somewhere and are let down.

"Luxurious, refined, elegant ... incomparable bedrooms."
Rivages Guide to Charming Hotels

It's all about comfort ...
Many hotels have horrible beds. We offer you the best beds that money can buy, handmade to order for us. And with the best goosedown pillows we can find. Our sheets are special, too. The last ones that passed our inspection were Ralph Lauren's best.

Comfort is the foundation of any successful break from your everyday life. What's the point going on holiday if you're not going to relax and sleep peacefully?

"One of the finest hotels I know in terms of comfort
and discreet but warm service
."

The New York Times

Delicious breakfasts until noon ...
Most hotels don't serve breakfast late enough. Holidays should be for sleeping in if you want to – why should you have to keep to a timetable that's convenient for the hotel? Do you want to get up late at Scott's? Fine, get up late. Breakfast will still be there for you.

"A little jewel box, a rarity among hotels – one that doesn't feel like a hotel, look like a hotel, or offer the dry and standardized service of most hotels."
Condé Nast Traveler

Are we even a hotel?
One famous travel journal doesn't think so. "Not like any standard hotel I know. More like having good friends with discerning taste and a wonderful staff lend you their beautiful house for a few days. You have your own key to the front door, make yourself completely at home, luxuriate in the big handmade beds, enjoy late breakfasts, eat well at authentic local bistros and allow your hosts to give you insider tips on places to go, things to see, secret beaches, off the radar pleasures. A sophisticated townhouse mansion, both civilised and thoroughly satisfying."

"At Scott's, nothing disappoints: the interior is as calm, sophisticated and unobtrusively luxurious as you could wish . . . a pampering treat."
Charming Small Hotels Guide

Service, but not "too much" service ...
How much service is the right amount of service? Service to us is when you can apply to someone competent if you need something done for you, something brought to you, a booking made, a restaurant recommended, or a flight confirmed.

At Scott's there are no twee shops or cheap souvenir racks or a huge marble lobby. We try to spend more money on your well-being rather than in trying to impress you with gilt chandeliers and rococo carvings.

"Uncommon comfort and serenity in an unspoilt jewel of a town."
Lanier's Elegant Small Hotels

Value for money ...
If you check prices, you'll find us to be extraordinarily reasonable. It may be true that we're really not a hotel at all, so perhaps we don't qualify for comparisons. We certainly don't pretend to offer as many facilities as some places – no spa, shops, or tennis courts. No, what we do is offer you is great comfort in gracious surroundings, warm and helpful attention when you want it, and the kind of personal attention that seems to have gone out of style in recent years.

We do only a few things, but we aim to do them exceedingly well.

"Scott's is a gem of a place – a fabulously restored mansion where the emphasis is firmly on comfort. Located in the heart of
Mallorca's wine country.

What to do now ...
Go deeper into this website. Look at the photos of our rooms, read comments from former guests, get details of prices, terms and conditions, and make a safe and secure reservation on line using our encrypted booking pages.

The Sunday Times of London asked renowned hotel critic Alistair Sawday to name his six favourite hideaway hotels in Spain. Scott's was one of them. (And the only one on Mallorca).

A final thought – we're run for your convenience, not ours ...
Unlike many hotels, we run our places for your convenience, not that of our staff or what suits us personally. We hope we sound like your kind of place.

"This meticulously restored 18th century mansion in the island's unspoilt centre is the perfect hotel for long weekends in autumn and spring."

Palma de Mallorca

But if our townhouse isn't exactly right for you,
we also have a mountain place ...

Scott's Townhouse is perfectly placed for exploring the island, in an unspoilt, untouristed medieval wine village 12 miles from Palma and convenient to virtually everything you might like to see, all no more than 20 to 30 minutes away.

But we also have a stunningly little artists colony complex in the mountains, Scott's Galilea, offering what several guidebooks say is the best hotel view on Mallorca – a breathtaking vista out over an ancient village and across the sweep of a green valley to the sea.

And so you can truly enjoy the view, there are individual private South-facing terraces outside every accommodation. Scott's Galilea offers absolute tranquillity, plus our hallmark beds and even little kitchens to make snacks for your between-meal convenience. See http://www.scottsgalilea.com for details.

Tailor-make your own bespoke holiday ...
Because we have two places in two different styles, you can choose, mix and match, combine or alternate our accommodations depending on your mood, needs, or time and available energy. To explore the island, or visit Palma, or enjoy a romantic weekend away, or an intimate dinner in a fine restaurant, our Townhouse may suit you down to the ground. For utter peace and quiet, the chance to take long walks with extraordinary mountain and sea views, or sit on your terrace and read and relax, then Scott's Galilea could be just the ticket.

Combining and saving ...
To spare you a difficult decision, we'll try to make things simple. Book both hotels and spend 4 nights in one and 3 nights in the other and we'll offer you an additional 5% discount. Or spend a week in one hotel and a week in the other and we'll give you a 10% discount on both. That might make your decision just a tad easier. And that's in addition to the drastic discounts we're now offering for our 25th anniversary.

Five Things to Think About Before You Book Any Hotel, Even Ours ...

1) Know that you'll be comfortable during your holiday. Without comfort and relaxation, your holiday will be worthless.

2) Don't buy last minute magical mystery tours, or buy just on price, or fail to find out as much as possible about your intended destination and hotel. The Internet is a great source of information – use it to your advantage. And remember TNSTAFL – There's No Such Thing As a Free Lunch. By and large, you get what you pay for. "Really cheap" too often means really shoddy.

3) Don't go for a one-trick pony. If you head for a destination in search of sun, choose somewhere that also can offer you something to do if it rains. Many destinations have only one thing going for them, and even sunshine can get pretty boring after a few days. Mallorca/Majorca is a true all-weather destination.

4) With holidays, shorter and more often can be better than fewer and longer. A leisurely long holiday in an exotic locale can be wonderful, but it's also good to find a place you like that isn't more than a couple of hours away, where you can get away easily for a long weekend on short notice, and where you can become known and familiar and be welcomed back as one of the family. Like our own hearts beating, we do best on a work-rest-work-rest regime.

5) Careful is smart. Even something as relatively minor as a broken ankle can be serious if you're on a remote Eastern Mediterranean island. Choose a destination with some back-up just in case you run into trouble, like an island with some of the finest health care in the world. Good doctors, too, like living in a sunny, friendly place.

Taking all of the above into consideration, we think there's a case for a holiday on Mallorca – the "other Mallorca" – the beautiful and still unspoilt Mallorca, not the Majorca of ill repute. And we trust and anticipate that we've made a case for you to come and visit us at one or both Scott's Hotels. We hope you agree.
