Our stay at the Hotel Eden Soller definitely helped make our holiday in Port de Soller. We looked at a number of options through BA before choosing our hotel. We also looked at the reviews both positive and mixed just to get an idea of what people had said and chose the Hotel Eden Soller. The rooftop cocktail bar may have also helped. The hotel is in a great location, on the sea front and across the tram tracks from the beach. We paid for an upgrade for a sea view room and this was certainly worth it for us. The photos are a range taken from the room, pool and bar. Check in was easy and we were fortunate that our room was ready. The room was a good size and had most things we would want, including a fridge for water during the week and a safe. We could have done with a few more hangers and there weren’t enough drawers for smaller items of clothes. We had a room overlooking the pool and beach and a balcony which in the evening got the sun which for us was a pleasant change, we’ve had some shocking views over the years. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast on the website said continental but it’s a wide range of food including continental but also hot food items. We chose not to eat at the hotel in the evening mainly due to all the options out and about. The most negative comments we read before booking were the lack of sun beds around the pool. We managed to get sun beds in the first few days, but after that we opted to go to the sun beds on the beach. Pool - For me personally I found the chlorine in the pool not great for my skin (eczema) but most other people in the pool seemed very happy. Once we decided to go to the beach you would see some people waiting for the pool to open to put towels on the sun beds. Beach - With the sun beds on the beach, you did have to pay for these which we had no issue with. For 2 people with an umbrella it was €19 per day (1 person with umbrella was €13). With the sun beds and umbrella there was also a safe where you could keep your valuables whilst in the sea. The beach is sandy, not many rocks / stones. Because it is a harbour, the sea is calm and easy to swim in. There was a platform people could swim up to and jump off, which was very popular even into the evening. It was worth the money. You don’t need to pay for Sumner’s, you can also just use the beach with your towels etc. The walk from the hotel to the beach was just across the promenade, which also included the tracks for the Soller Tram. The promenade was mostly pedestrians, you get the odd taxi, van and cyclists and scooters but mostly trams and pedestrians. Very safe to cross and seconds to get from the hotel to the beach. The Soller tram is great, we only used it one day when we got the tram to Soller and then the heritage train to Palma, from memory €40 return, definitely a trip worth doing. Would highly recommend the resort and hotel. In fact as a rarity for us it is when we will be back rather than if we are back.
