The staff and service is what makes this stop 5 star (and the amazing pool + garden grounds). The rooms are very small, but you’re in such a fantastic area you rarely spend time in your room. I highly recommend!

Loved the style, the wonderful staff, excellent breakfast, beautiful communal areas and fantastic location. Bedrooms are fairly simple but very comfortable and well appointed
The only thing I’d have liked would be blinds / way of subduing the natural light in the bathroom which was very bright first thing in the morning.

A great hotel with a peaceful and upmarket atmosphere. Rooms aren't big but they are clean and comfortably furnished and we had a lovely view of the harbour. We enjoyed the restaurant - good selection at breakfast. The hotel is brilliantly situated just outside Valletta's city gate so easy to walk everywhere.

Wonderful hotel. Staff are charming and extremely helpful. The Spa facilities are excellent. The outside pool is cold in early March but a very invigorating way to start the day and what a fabulous view across the harbour. I will certainly be staying again. Thank you for your hospitality.

Great location and very comfortable. Breakfast was one of the best I’ve had in a hotel. The courtyard is great for tea and relaxing with a book. Loved the spa massages. Lovely garden and grounds.
The only thing that detracted somehow was that the rooms were relatively small, and the furniture looked a bit tired. We had to upgrade ours. All in all a great hotel
