Concepció by Nobis
Palma, Spain · Nobis Hotels · High Luxury
Concepció by Nobis occupies a 1576 building in Palma's Old Town that has served over the centuries as a soap factory, warehouse, private home, and even a chapel, on a street once central to the city's olive-oil trade. It reopened in June 2021 as Nobis Hospitality Group's first hotel outside Scandinavia, after a nearly five-year restoration by Swedish firm Wingårdhs that preserved the original cross vaults and arches. The 31 rooms pair that history with Mallorcan Huguet tiles and Scandinavian design classics.

History
Concepció by Nobis occupies a landmark 16th-century building on Carrer de la Concepció, at the seam where Palma de Mallorca's Old Town meets the lively Santa Catalina district. Originally built in 1576, the structure served over the centuries as a soap factory supplying a local hospital, as well as warehouses, residences and even a city chapel, before more recent stints as popular tapas bars, on a street once at the heart of Palma's olive-oil trade.
Nobis Hospitality Group's first hotel outside Scandinavia, it opened in June 2021 after a nearly five-year restoration led by Swedish firm Wingårdhs (architects Gert Wingårdh and Helena Toresson), working with Spanish firms Jordi Herrero Arquitectos and Eduardo García Acuña. The 31-room boutique hotel preserves original cross vaults, ancient beams and arches while introducing Scandinavian minimalism, bespoke Mallorcan Huguet tiles and design classics, alongside an in-house restaurant and lounge, an outdoor pool and a gym.
