Fantastic holiday

10.0

Lovely small boutique hôtel, ideally situated in the centre of Valletta. Stayed in a comfort room which was very quiet and well air conditioned - essential as the temperature was over 40 on several days. Breakfast was served either inside the sister hotel a few yards down the road or outside - great for people watching! Staff were all brilliant - Katho, Craig and everyone else whose names I don't recall. Would definitely return and highly recommend to anyone visiting Malta.

Lovely hotel, highly recommend

10.0

The hotel was fabulous, they upgraded me and offered wine or champagne upon check in, all the staff were very helpful and attentive helping me with local recommendations. The rooftop bar and gym was very nice along with the location. Great room and everything was very clean.

Camera senza finestre apribili

6.0

Bella la struttura il palazzo molto scenico

− La camera anche se era all ultimo piano non avena finestre solo una piccola fessura le altre non potevi aprirle perché davano sul corridoio non molto bello !! La camera di per sé bella e spaziosa .. peccato
