The hotel was centrally located and walkable to bus terminal and ferries. Staff was very professional, helpful and always had a smile. Breakfast was enjoyable with fresh options being replenished constantly, coffee & drinks being served to the table with requests for refills. Room was clean with complimentary water, tea, coffee & free mini bar items. Highly recommended!!!

The rooms are big,clean and have everything you need.There are loads of extras in the room and it all feels very luxurious. The hotel is very close to all the amazing sites, bars and restaurants. Staff are amazing especially Olena on reception and of course all the other staff who went above and beyond who we met during our stay. We will stay here again when going on holiday in Malta This hotel is highly recommended 👍

Excellent service, front desk and housekeeping especially. Breakfast average by the range and price. Rooms very noisy, quality of sleeping very poor, even considering the use of the earplugs that the hotel provides to guests.

Central Valletta location. Staff were always courteous and helpful. Room small but fresh. It is noisy in the surrounding streets so if you’re a light sleeper it may not be the hotel for you (although they do supply ear plugs!).

Lovely, clean, classy boutique style hotel within a historical building. All of the staff were fantastic and made our stay feel as though we were staying with good friends. The owner has a wealth of knowledge about Malta and the best attractions to see as well as suggestions of the best restaurants at reasonable prices. The hotel is also perfectly situated for exploring Valletta on foot. The owner and all of the staff worked hard to ensure that our stay was a memorable experience and we were made to feel valued and special.
