Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only

About Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only

Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only suits couples and friends who want a calm, adult-only base inside Ciutadella rather than a resort on the coast. The address is on Carrer Del Portal De La Font, 0.4 km from the old town in a straight line, so dinner and an evening walk need no car. It is a three-star hotel with a terrace and a patio, and it holds a guest score of 5.0/5 from 170 reviews.

Within the hotel, the stay is a town-house sort of affair: a terrace and a patio for a drink before heading out, and a short walk to everything in the old town. It is listed as adults only, which keeps the atmosphere calm through the evening. The three-star grading fits a comfortable, unpretentious base rather than a full-service resort. Guests wanting breakfast times, late arrival arrangements or parking should confirm directly with Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only before booking.

Location: Ciutadella

Ciutadella is Menorca's old capital, built around a cathedral, a grid of palaces and a narrow port that faces west and fills with people at sunset. Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only sits 0.4 km from the old town in a straight line, so the cathedral, the lanes and the harbour are a walk rather than a drive. The Sant Joan festival fills the streets around 23 or 24 June with horses and riders; book well ahead for those nights.

Everything within Ciutadella is on foot: the 0.4 km to the old town, the port and the evening walk along the lanes. Beyond that, a car or taxi helps. The Naveta des Tudons is 4.7 km away, Cala Turqueta 10 km, Cala Galdana 12.6 km and Es Mercadal under Monte Toro 21.8 km. Summer brings more bus lines to the southern coves; check the island bus operator. In July and August Ciutadella is busy after dark; in May, June and September the streets and coves are calmer.

Rooms and facilities

Rooms are listed with air conditioning, a desk, a TV, a safe and a minibar, plus a bath, a hairdryer and toiletries in the bathroom, which covers a short town stay comfortably. Coffee making is listed too. Housekeeping and cleaning are provided, along with free wifi and internet access. Couples should ask about the position of the room when booking; late arrivals should confirm reception hours with Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only before travelling, since check-in times are set by the property.

Beyond the room, the hotel lists a terrace, a patio and a bar, and a smoking area outside. Practical extras include luggage storage, express check in, a laundry service and a car rental service, useful if you plan to reach the southern coves. There is a safe and a smoke detector in the room. Families should note the adults only policy applies to all guests. Confirm the details that matter to you, such as laundry turnaround or rental availability, with Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only directly.

Getting there

Menorca Airport (MAH) is 36.1 km from Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only in a straight line, on the south-west side of Maó, so the transfer is a taxi or a hire car collected at the terminal. Buses run from the airport to Maó, and the island bus network continues to Ciutadella; in summer there are more lines. Allow for the last stretch on foot or by taxi, since the hotel sits in the town centre.

From Maó port, 38.5 km away in a straight line, the drive across the island passes Es Mercadal and Monte Toro before dropping into Ciutadella. Ferries reach Maó and Ciutadella from Barcelona, Ciutadella from Alcúdia on Mallorca and Maó from Palma; check the operators for current timetables, as winter crossings are fewer. If you arrive by sea at Ciutadella, the hotel is a short walk or taxi ride from the port.

Beaches, sights and food nearby

Ciutadella old town, 0.4 km away, is the closest sight: the cathedral, the palaces and the port at dusk. The Naveta des Tudons, a boat-shaped prehistoric tomb, is 4.7 km out on the road towards Maó, and it belongs to the Talayotic Menorca World Heritage listing added in 2023. Cala Turqueta, 10 km south, is white sand under pine, and Cala Galdana, 12.6 km, is the larger of the two coves.

Menorca's food is part of the reason to stay in town. Mahón-Menorca cheese carries a protected designation of origin and appears on most menus, and caldereta de llagosta, the lobster stew associated with Fornells on the north coast, is a special-occasion dish. Gin is part of the local bar culture, a legacy of British rule in the 18th century. Eat late, as the island does, and the 0.4 km back to the hotel stays an easy walk.

A day from Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only

Start with the 0.4 km walk into Ciutadella old town while it is still cool, taking in the cathedral and the lanes before the shops open. Then pick up a car or taxi for the Naveta des Tudons, 4.7 km away, and continue south to Cala Turqueta, 10 km from Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only, arriving before the car park fills in summer. Bring water and a hat for the middle of the day.

Return to town in the afternoon, when the heat eases, and use the hotel's patio or terrace for a break before going out again. The port and the old town are 0.4 km from Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only, and the light at dusk is why people walk that way. Dinner in Ciutadella comes late, so an evening drink first fits the rhythm. Es Mercadal and Monte Toro, 21.8 km away, make a half-day alternative if the coast is windy.

Practical tips

Much of Menorca's tourism business closes roughly from November to April, while Ciutadella stays open all year; confirm the opening dates of Hotel Ca s'Arader Adults Only before booking a winter stay. July and August are the peak, when the old town is at its busiest and the southern coves fill early. The Balearic sustainable tourism tax, the ecotasa, is charged per person per night by the accommodation, at rates that depend on the type of accommodation and the season, reduced in low season and for longer stays; check the Govern de les Illes Balears for current rates.
