Sis Pins-is It Open?
Just wondered if Sis Pins has remained open have tried to book on their web site but it's saying no availability yet Alpha Rooms accepting bookings!
|
Have had a look at their site and they do appear to be accepting bookings although I did try out of season dates:) When are you trying to book for?
|
Thanks for reply was looking at this month had read some where they intended to remain open all winter
|
Yes they are definitely open and judging by the amount of people walking down towards it late last night i would say they are quite busy :D.
|
Thanks sparky have e-mailed so will wait a reply maybe they are full!

Hotel Sis Pins
When I needed a room at the Sis Pins in September, I contacted them via their Faceobook profile and got an answer back within an hour confirming availability. Hope you get something sorted out! It's a lovely hotel!
|
Just a short note to say managed to book online just awaiting confirmation and yes they are definitely open for business!
Thanks for the replies |
They were definitely open from the 22nd December to the 1st January when we were in the port and, as Sparky says, both the hotel and Cappuccino bar were very busy. I could see only one room on the front possibly(?) not occupied.
We used the Cappuccino bar many times during our stay and it was great. Extremely well located for us and very warm and inviting. I really hope both business's do well enough to be able to stay open for next winter as well. What an asset to PP they are. |
They certainly told us in October that this season they were staying open all year round, I think for the first time.
Nickpaulanoah, I totally agree about Cappuccino, although I did have reservations when it first opened (based entirely on price!) - but to be able to sit at the water's edge, being served by such lovely waiters in such a glamorous setting - it's worth every euro! And we've also sat on the terrace on really chilly evenings as they have extremely effective heaters. |
I agree re alcohol and food prices being higher than elsewhere, although their coffee is really nice and not expensive, but I use it now and again and just have one cocktail or a couple of beers, thereby equalling itself out over the course of a holiday.
As Kate says, it's the setting and smartness of the place for me and the two lads serving and their manager were so friendly and helpful. As you can tell, I'm such a fan of the place!! |
Sis Pins here we come. Just booked a sea view terrace room for late August early September.
|
We stayed in the Sis Pins last week was extremely quiet, most of the time there were only 12 guests two staff members did a great job of looking after everything, the only thing we missed was being able to have a glass of wine or cup of coffee at the hotel but not a deal breaker. The rates for single rooms were a real bargain and although we paid for sea view balcony rooms think everyone was given one regardless!
I hope the hotel manages to make a success of it's all year round opening |
Sis Pins remains open but I think its rather unfortunate that Cappuccino have decided to close as this was giving the life and service that the Hotel and the area needs in the winter months.
Sis Pins do hope to remain open again next winter and its important to support the hotel, especially the people who regularly complain that all the hotels close in the winter! |

Well done Mr. Hopkins. An Englishman leading the way! It just backs my theory that Mallorca can be a year round destination if businesses are prepared to gamble.
Illa d'or, Miramar, Daina et al are you watching?! |
Its all very well but if you cannot get a flight to go out then the Hotels are just banging heads against walls, From the end of October to April almost no flights from the north of England, And indeed MOST Airports outside London NO Fights at all. Palma Airport and the Spanish Government need to get their act together and reduce landing fees etc for Winter use. It would then make it viable for the airlines to Fly during the winter months. Imagine how busy Mr Hopkins would be then :)
|
It's a case of the "chicken and the egg". Do the airlines lay on flights without hotels being open or do the hotels etc. open with a view to airlines then noting this and putting on flights to meet the demand?
At least there are some flights to Mallorca. |
yes its not easy in winter months for those of us in the deep end, always plenty EJ flights from LPL though not a million miles from Scotland, all north England or the Midlands either
IF YOU BUILD IT THEY WILL COME ;) |

So far we are lucky..flights from Bristol 2/3 times a week in winter..ok its nearly a 2 hour drive but better than nothing :)
|
Yes, great flights from Bristol with Easyjet.....they were both completely full when I travelled earlier this month.
Other airlines should take note! |

we often fly from there even when flights are avail from GLA and EDN due to pricing, first flight in morning usually around 6.30 in morning so ideal for an early run down m74/m6 when roads are quiet our eldest daughter has often joined us during our stay and gone home that way too in from PP, flying from LPL via train from Glasgow central changes at wigan I think though but she said its no bother minutes to wait for train on west coast main line train from wigan to Liverpool then bus to airport where theres a will theres a way ;) |
Gers, that's ok if going for a week or more - we are going from LPL in October for 8 days and flew back into LPL last October as well......got a flight out from GLA. If only going for a weekend it is a bit of a hassle though whereas if the flights were available from GLA or EDI (at the right price of course) people would be more inclined to go to Mallorca for a short break. We have no problems travelling to MAN, LPL or NCL but I know of lots of people who, if they don't get a flight from either EDI or GLA would never consider travelling at all;)
Sorry this is probably going a bit off thread now isn't it:) |

we went from LPL last xmas was loads from Glasgow in check in line kids too long jaunt need to petition EJ for this year, wouldn't fly RA again from PIK man who owns its a midden shocking service |
Booked Sis Pins for November but just had an email to cancel the booking as they are closed from 10th Nov to 12th Dec 2014 to carry out repairs on the roof!
A bit disappointed but booked Mar Calma instead. Hoping to try Sis Pins in 2015! |

A privately owned company has bucked the trend and now got a tour company to come on board which will now mean winter flights from The north of England to PP and more flights from the South. please all stand and give that man and his company a round of applause he and his company has achieved what all the other Hotels have said for years was not Possible . And for years now on the 30th of October have put up the shutters an ran to the hills until April/May. PP has much to offer in the winter as Geoff Hopkins says and he has proved the adage IF YOU BUILD IT THEY WILL COME. Now lets see the rest wake up and follow his lead and the Airlines and the Airport to give Airlines a winter deal on Landing fees ETC Next time you walk down the front, we should all call into the Sis Pins and shake Mr Geoff Hopkins by the hand and pat him on the back :) |
