The Best Cheap Hotels to Book in Menorca

If city living appeals, book this gorgeous, ten-room boutique hotel in Ciutadella with restaurants, shops and attractions right on the doorstep. Decorated in a simple, rustic style, rooms come with whitewashed stone walls, hand-crafted furnishings, wicker accents and spa-like bathrooms. Some overlook the old town or have their own terrace, and one – which sleeps four – has a private kitchen, making it a great option for families.

Sea views don’t have to come at a premium: choose this aparthotel on the waterfront, just outside beautiful Ciutadella. The building features one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, so is perfect if you’re travelling as a group; all have living rooms and full kitchens, so you can cook at home and cut costs. There’s also a swimming pool, bike hire, restaurant and snack bar, and even a supermarket for stocking up on essentials.

It may be small, but this charming hotel in the centre of Ciutadella packs plenty of thoughtful details. There’s an extensive collection of art across the building from some of Menorca’s top artists; coffee and home-made cake available throughout the day; and a fridge for stashing your own drinks. A three-storey house down a traditional cobbled street, the hotel has just seven rooms, including one with access to a private rooftop terrace.

Go from breakfast to the beach in moments at this hotel, steps from the sand at Arenal d’en Castell. There’s no need to splash out on dining either, as every studio apartment comes with a fully equipped kitchen, including dishwasher, filtered water tap and hob. Each sleep two people and have a balcony or garden for you to soak in the Mediterranean views.

This tiny city bolthole in the heart of Maó is run by a Menorcan family, and is just five minutes’ walk from the port. It has five stylish rooms, including three suites, where children under four stay for free. One has an in-room bathtub, if you want to really spoil yourself, while a hearty, locally sourced breakfast is included with all stays.

Stay close to city sights while guaranteeing peace and quiet by choosing this beautiful guesthouse, ten minutes’ drive from historic Ciutadella. Popular attractions and restaurants are within easy reach, while the hotel is also close to an 18-hole golf course and is surrounded by an 11-acre (4.5ha) park. It has a swimming pool, outdoor living room, hammam, tennis court and weekly guest barbecue, too.

A chic, city-break hideaway, this Instagrammable hotel looks over the Menorcan capital’s terracotta rooftops and whitewashed buildings. There are eight brilliant-white rooms, but the surprisingly affordable penthouse is the star, with its own honesty bar, huge terrace with daybeds, and rooftop jacuzzi. Weekend breaks don’t get much more stylish.

You’ll feel like you have your very own home in Menorca if you book this six-room hotel, based in a 19th-century stately home in Ciutadella. There’s no traditional front desk, although breakfast from the local market is served each day on the ground floor. There’s also a coffee machine, free newspapers, and fruit to grab and go, while the modern rooms feel like loft apartments, with exposed ceiling beams, mosaic or parquet floors and swish industrial touches.
