Cupido Boutique Hotel

Just home after a week’s stay at Cupido Boutique. Check in was great, very friendly staff. The reception & lobby/bar area is modern, cool & clean. The hotel is only 3 floors & there is only one small lift only really big enough for two but it is quick. The room was clean & comfortable & the air con was quiet & efficient. Coffee maker only had complimentary pods on arrival & weren’t replenished daily, so take your own if you want a coffee in your room! Breakfast was good, usual choice of cereals, fruit, cold meats, cheeses, fresh tomato, cucumber, etc., scrambled/boiled/friend eggs, bacon, mushrooms, etc., freshly cooked omelettes, variety of fresh bread, baguettes, croissants, doughnuts, cake… The swimming pool is a perfect temperature & sunbeds always available in shade or sun. The rooftop terrace is lovely, lots of spaces to relax & enjoy the sea views & cool down in the two jacuzzis. The hotel is in a great location, literally just a few metres over the road & down onto Playa Palmira & a few minutes walk along to Torà beach where you can get boat trips along the coast to Santa Ponsa, Port d’Andrax, etc. Huge variety of bars & restaurants everywhere in Peguera, quite German influenced, no British or Irish pubs which made a change for us from England!

Managers scam couples by putting them in single rooms. The room is very very small. The toilet is in the same room as the bed with nothing covering it as well as it directly facing the bed which is ridiculous that there is no privacy on the toilet as can be seen by the almost laughable picture. The bed is a 3/4 bed in the corner of the bedroom room which is unacceptable for two people. The shower leaks a lot of water underneath the glass meaning your room is practically underwater after a quick shower. We arrived at midnight the first night and complained in the morning which resulted in another room being available the morning after complaining. The new room was much more up to standard with the bare minimum necessities such as an actual bathroom but generally quite nice, however the 2 nights in the first room somewhat ruined the experience. They claim the room is an “economy double room” but in reality this is a single room that they put couples and charge over €1200 for the week for. The food is hit and miss but generally okay, we ate out some nights as it occasionally wasn’t great. The rooftop facilities are very nice with the sea views and hot tubs. The hotel is clean and the staff are all very lovely who work there. Bar area is also nice.

The staff is very friendly. I booked a single room which was pretty small (as expected). I did not appreciate that the toilet and shower was basically in the same room. The gliding door covering the toilet is also used for the shower. Since it’s not sealed, my room was underwater all the time after taking a shower. The hotel itself and the rooms were well maintained and clean. The location is convenient close to public transportation and the beach with ample of shops and restaurants nearby. WiFi was pretty fast. The food however leaves a lot to be desired for. The quality is pretty low (mostly convenience food). They have some sort of a life cooking station. One night they did burgers and I was shocked and disgusted to see that the chef is touching the raw burger patty’s and veggies with his bare hands making me concerned about the food safety standards. You’re better off going to one of the restaurants nearby. Bottom line, good enough for 2 nights, but would not like to spend a full vacation there.

Fabulous, friendly stay with everything you need for a short break. The rooms are all different ..some have balconies some not. Our room was small but had everything we needed including a fridge and coffee machine , Although the balcony overlooked the street ... we didn't mind the street noise ...others might prefer not to overlook street. Staff are the key in this hotel ... friendly , helpful and efficient ...they all worked hard . Close to both main High Street, beach , and bus stop for Palma ..it suited us well. A small pool and a rooftop terrace are a bonus. Breakfast was super ( great value for money) ; a selection of hot and cold items, cereals yogurts and fruit .... plentiful. If you are looking for luxury, stunning views and gardens then maybe this is not the place for you ... but for us it was excellent and we would return another time. It provided excellent value and felt safe and friendly. Carlotta and her team did us proud. Thank you

Hit and miss I will find this review quite difficult to write as the Cupido has many good points, but, unfortunately for us, I think the negative aspects just about outweighed the positives. The main asset the hotel has is its staff who are hardworking and happy in their roles and constantly engage in a cheerful manner with guests throughout the day... they really are fantastic and a credit to the company. There are little touches that are very pleasing such as for the first welcome drink they don’t just offer you a watered down orange juice or 1/2 inch glass of wine but more or less anything you want from the bar (obviously within reason) such as tea, coffee, glass of wine or full pint of beer... good start! When by the pool or roof terrace the lovely staff will come round and offer you free slices of cold water melon to cool you off a bit... all thoughtful gestures. The rooms appear to be very hit or miss, we started with a definite 'miss' initially with a tiny dark room (no balcony) tucked in the corner of the building with a very small single window looking out onto the blocked out side of someone’s balcony about 3ft. away (see photos) - the bigger window to the right wasn’t ours. Admittedly we booked a room without balcony as we had no choice when booking with Jet2, however, Jet2 don’t appear to charge extra for a balcony room anyway - it was just that they had none left - so this shouldn’t really have affected what room we were allocated. But this is where the lovely staff come into play again, between the manageress Carlota and the lovely receptionist Paula, after 2 nights they managed to swop our room to one that still had no balcony but was bigger, brighter, floor to ceiling window with superb sea view... what a difference! We were 2 weeks half board so you would have thought they’d have put someone that was only staying a few days on B&B in the first room to save us the embarrassment of having to ask to move. We would have been really miserable in that dark room for the whole fortnight. We were half board and are by no means fussy eaters but we thought the evening meal choice very limited even for a small hotel. There was literally one meat, one fish, one pasta and one grill station choice - none of which were very appealing. There isn’t even the choice of something like pizza which is usually on every hotels menu. These were accompanied by a choice of one vegetable and one style of potato. Even my partner who will hoover up anything didn’t enjoy any of the evening meals. But to counteract that the breakfast was okay and the morning machine coffee was the best I’ve had in a long time. As I say hit and miss. The communal areas of the hotel are lovely and everywhere is spotless but, as others have stated, it is in a rather noisy area (even in low season) with street bar music finishing after 2am., people shouting in the street in the early hours and the glass and bin wagons making an awful racket around 6am. which isn’t very condu

We stopped in the cafe for a drink and felt very welcomed. We had a waiter called Sara and she is so sweet and attentive ! The cafe is very clean and comfortable. Internet is great and drink are great ! Please come here as staff like Sara make it super special !
