One thing to bear in mind if you choose to stay in Alcudia old town is that there are a number of churches within the town’s walls whose bells chime as the hours pass through the night and some of the hotels are within a close proximity of these churches. A few guests have commented in the past that the sounds keep them awake whilst others find the chimes comforting or don’t hear them at all.
