Overall Ratings & Reviews Hotel Faustino Gran - Relais & Chateaux

Everything about my stay at Faustino Gran was incredible, the staff & service were exceptiona,l and the facilities were top tier. I can't wait to come back

Great location, super staff, value for money.

The location is fantastic in good proximity of Citudella. Hotel decor is of a good standard however the experience is certainly not a 5 star experience and I believe we are leaving a fair review of this hotel. We stayed in the main / largest building. There was an issue when we checked in as we had paid a premium room with a harbour view however we were given a room close proximity of a jazz bar with a view of the side of the courtyard which is uninspiring. The reception team attempted to allocate a different room however a downgrade to a superior room which appeared to be in the eaves of the building with no harbour view , considering the air conditioning in the rooms in our opinion are of a weak standard we declined as we did not wish compromise 4 nights of interrupted sleep as the rooms in hotel are quite humid. Rooms were of a good size , however the bed was uncomfortable and pillows a very poor standard offering no neck support, bedding not changed during the 4 night stay even though it was evident there was a stain . Housekeeping was of a good standard however I do feel that the guest experience is poor as housekeeping had not tided the room until after 3pm on an occasion , reception were extremely unhelpful as I explained to receptionist that my husband needsed to rest as the 3rd night of our stay (room 16) we were woken by loud music from the jazz bar that continued until 5am in the morning and we had an extremely sleepless night. I was informed I need

We had a very relaxing five-night stay at Gran Faustino. The hotel is elegant, the staff are very friendly and the location in the quiet back streets is perfect for exploring Ciutadella on foot. Highly recommended.

Highly recommend!! Thoroughly deserves 5* From the moment I arrived the staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel is situated in a very convenient position for exploring the city and all it has to offer. Ciutadella is very safe, historically interesting, clean and pretty with good transport links to the rest of the island. There are a good variety of restaurants within close proximity as well as the excellent one at the Faustino. Breakfasts can be eaten on the terrace which is a joy! There is a lovely continental style cold buffet as well as an excellent selection of hot choices, the staff are only too happy to try and accommodate your needs. The hotel is split over 3 buildings which are all within about 100 meters of the main building. Each has its own character, they are quiet and beautifully designed. There is a lovely pool and terrace area in the gardens of the main hotel and also, a smaller beautifully secluded one in Can Llorenc . Both were a peaceful haven after a busy mornings sightseeing. I will definitely be returning to the Faustino Gran and all it has to offer.

Location location. Location Within a few hundred yards of the harbour , the cathedral, the shops , in the old city This former royal palace is excellent in all areas Highlights include the private booking of the steam room sauna and indoor pool in an underground cave and a day out in their country estate with a lavish picnic in peaceful grounds Highly recommend this hotel

My husband and I cannot say enough about this hotel. Beautiful location and surroundings, the staff and the Manager make you feel so welcomed and special. Breakfast was great, we chose to eat dinner at the hotel restaurant one evening which was also very good. So many details taken care of at this place - we will be back!

The Faustino Gran is a beautiful property, with lovely staff. But it was let down by a consistently chaotic breakfast service, and a food a beverage offering that generally did not live up to the price-point or what you would generally expect from a R&C hotel. The breakfast service was understaffed for the number of guests, making it consistently hard to get seated and order a coffee, and on more than one occasion hard to get a table prepared with cutlery or a menu. This was consistently the case over a five night stay - we decided to skip breakfast on the last morning because (despite our lovely waitresses) it just took too long every day previously. We had high expectations of dinner, which we booked on our first night, but despite the lovely staff and setting we were very disappointed by the standard of food - far from good enough for the price and out of sync with the generally excellent standard in Ciutadela. Rice was seriously undercooked, burrata salad way too cold, as if pre-prepared and taken from the fridge. Similarly, it was sometimes hard to get drinks from the cocktail bar due to staffing, no pool-side service, and the same classic cocktails varied depending on who made them. There are noise issues in the rooms facing the port, where we stayed. While the port nightlife is out of the hotel’s control, investment in better sound proofing would help. Despite these issues, the hotel is beautiful, well located, with helpful and friendly staff who did their best.

A beautiful hotel in the heart of old town, walking distance from the harbour, main square and laberinth of streets for shops, bars and restaurants. Although well occupied, we never felt crowded, with a sizeable team on hand for anything we needed, guided by a very attentive general manager. The main entrance is on a very narrow road to the front so it would have been be wise to call reception just before arrival - they would probably have greeted us to assist with the luggage before driving off to park. In truth however, we didn’t need the car during our stay, so if we had only been saying here during our week, a taxi or airport transfer would have made more sense. Overall, a fabulous experience and highly recommended - we hope to be lucky enough to return in the future.

Very relaxing and the staff were very attentive.

Great place to stay in the middle of Ciutadella. Staff wonderful and welcoming.

Very nice location and ideal for strolling around the old town and harbour. Staff very friendly although breakfast service was slightly erratic. Please advise future customers that the deluxe premier room with views do not all have a balcony as inferred by the photos of the room. This led to initial disappointment that could have been avoided. Rooms overlooking the harbour are noisy from nightclubs opposite until the early hours, even with windows closed.

We had a fabulous stay at Hotel Can Faustino. From the moment we arrived we felt extremely welcomed and nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is beautiful & is situated conveniently with the sights of Ciutadella on the door step. We'll be back!

Reception staff was fantastic and hotel beautiful. The only thing that let this down was quality of food at breakfast and service. Give up in the end trying to get a second coffee, other than that this really is a beautiful hotel and highly recommended.

This is a very good hotel with really excellent staff, a lovely ambience and very nuce breakfast until 10.30am. Its real plus point is its location, right in the old town and a very short walk from the port with an amazing selection of places to eat and drink. The port and town both have a real 'buzz' on an evening. The hotel has a small pool area but it is not a great place to sit as it has no view or breeze! Much better to take a short bus or taxi ride to a nearby beach. The only negative was the noise from the port area at night which made sleeping difficult. The disco and jazz bar opposite the hotel were open until 5.30 am and the sound of partying voices was non stop.

The hotel was lovely my room was disappointing there were sky light windows only and it should noted that the cathedral bells feel like they are above your head when they are rung.

Can Faustino was a palace in a former life and I felt just like royalty! Absolutely everything was fabulous - staff, restaurant, facilities... completely faultless The hotel is in the heart of historic Ciutadella, so although I went for the Fiesta - what a spectacle - I would return for the hotel itself. Service is unrivalled, the welcome and hospitality generous, and the spacious gardens the perfect place to dine alfresco. I loved it.

Everything about the hotel is perfect. Great location in Ciutadella de Menorca. The hotel is an Old Palace building completely redone with exquisite taste. Modern state of the art air conditioning and showers. You notice the quality of the restoration when you notice details like a Schindler elevator even for just 2 floors. Lovely beds and rooms. Fantastic breakfasts. Friendly staff. Lovely interiors and exteriors. Will go back for sure.

Amazing hotel and decor! The restaurant is fantastic with knowledgable staff!

The perfect hotel in a perfect position for the old town. Beautiful interiors, very high standard throughout. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. A joy to be there.. Excellent buffet breakfast, interesting evening meals. Our best was the perfectly cooked and tender steak. Some amazingly presented desserts. We will certainly be going back to this hotel when we return to Menorca. Thought Cuitadella was a lovely city and, dare I say, far prettier than Mahon.
