Rooms

Crisp white walls and teak-effect flooring provide a smart backdrop for the chic decor of reupholstered antiques, design-classic furniture (reproductions), and polished-copper light fittings. Each suite has a living/dining area, with smart TV and sofa and a modern kitchenette (fridge, hob, coffee-pod machine, kettle, microwave) that can be discreetly hidden away behind sliding panels.

Beds are queensized and comfy; bathrooms have walk-in rainfall showers, black marble basins and premium Rituals products. We liked the thick bathrobes, that were perfect for a lazy breakfast. Double-glazed windows ensure solid soundproofing throughout, cutting out, in our room, all but the glorious donging bells of the nearby cathedral.

There are 2 categories of rooms (Heaven Suites or Angels Suites) and it's worth paying extra for the latter, which have impressive original features such as vaulted stone ceilings or elegant window-nook seating. Top-tier rooms open to private balconies or furnished terraces.

Features include:

• Bathrobes
• Hairdryer
• In-room treatments available
• Iron
• Safe box
• WiFi

Eating

There's no hotel restaurant but a pretty breakfast basket is delivered to your suite each morning at a pre-arranged time. Inside is mostly Menorcan-sourced produce, such as Mahon cheese, cured ham, olive oil, yogurt and fruit, plus fresh traditional bread and 'ensaimadas' from a nearby bakery. You'll find coffee pods, tea bags and UHT milk in your kitchenette.

For other meals, a 5-minute stroll takes you to at least a dozen excellent restaurants and authentic tapas bars, many specialising in local seafood; S'Amarador, S Moix, Rels and Café Balear are popular. The harbour is home to romantic waterfront eateries.

Features include:

• Breakfast
• Coffee maker
• Fridge
• Hob or stove
• Kitchenette
• Microwave
• Restaurants nearby
• Toaster

Activities

• Wander around Ciutadella's pretty Old Town, getting lost amongst the labyrinthine lanes. Don't miss the picturesque harbour, where you'll also find low-key nightlife
  
• The 14th-century Santa Maria Cathedral is just around the corner from the hotel and holds a huge marble altar beneath its 15m-high apse
  
• Hire a bike and cycle to the Líthica Pedreres de s'Hostal – a former quarry reborn as impressive gardens and a maze
  
• Spend a day on the beach: there are several lovely stretches of sand within a 15-minute drive, either to the north or south. We love the natural beauty of tiny Cala Binidali
  
• Visit the island's capital, Mao, on the other side of the island; it features handsome colonial architecture and one of the world's largest natural harbours

Activities on site or nearby include:

• Cycling

Location

Divina Suites are in the Old Town of Ciutadella, on the west coast of Menorca.

By Air:
Mahon (46km) is Menorca's only airport. You can take an airport transfer/taxi from here, but if you plan to explore the island, we'd recommend that you hire a car. There are various car parks in town, including a free one just outside the Old Town.

Detailed directions will be sent when you book through i-escape.com.
