Hotel Sant Ignasi

Located in a small valley at the centre of Menorca, and surrounded by a luxurious garden replete with oak and palm trees, this 19th century aristocratic house has been transformed into an elegant and attractive accommodation – a perfect antidote for those looking to get away from stress and city life. Decoration has been done with style and care. English and Minorca period pieces, 18th century classical furniture and Persian carpets in common areas, blend together with more modern fittings and sloping ceilings whilst the light airy colours of ochre, blue and amber, so typical of the Mediterranean, predominate throughout.

The end result is that nothing has been taken away from the house’s aristocratic credentials and much has been added to increase the comfort of guests. There are many little corners from which to enjoy peace and tranquillity, none more so than from ground floor rooms, which all come with their own private gardens and where, weather permitting, a memorable breakfast can be enjoyed. Those on the first floor need not despair as these one out onto landings with views of the countryside. The Sant Ignasi is within an easy reach of all the beaches on the northern and southwestern coast of the island and the town of Ciutadella de Menorca is a delight to behold.
