I will first express my gratitude for the service and the positivity we felt starting from the first moment we checked in till the last minute we checked out. The room was a little small compare to the picture yet it was super clean and well organized. The personnel kept checking if we are ok and were super lovely at the restaurant in the service disk and even the cleaning service. A little issue with the noises outside since it's a very moving area in Valetta. However that is not something to really to chance my opinion if I will consider rebooking next time. Excellent place ! Thanks

Overall, exceeded expectations. It’s perfect for both short and longer stays in Malta, offering the comfort of a luxury with the convenience of being in the city center. Highly recommended!

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.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highlights We had such a great stay here! The hotel itself is beautiful, with lovely, comfortable, and well-kept rooms. The location is honestly fantastic – you’re within walking distance of pretty much everything, which made it an easy and very convenient place to stay. We also really appreciated how well connected the hotel is with great restaurants in the area. The staff are happy to recommend places and can even help arrange reservations and get you a table, which was a really nice touch and made our stay even easier. Staff Experience What really stands out is the staff. Everyone we met was incredibly friendly, helpful, and genuinely service-minded. A special mention has to go to Olena on the night shift, who was absolutely wonderful and really went above and beyond for us. Drawback The only downside is something unfortunately outside the hotel’s control. There is a bar next door that plays surprisingly loud music, even on weekdays and seemingly without many (or any!) customers – we actually went over to check because we couldn’t quite understand where all the noise was coming from 😅 That being said, the amazing service from the staff honestly made up for the inconvenience. The hotel is clearly aware of the situation and provides guests with really good quality earplugs, which we appreciated. Overall Despite the noise from next door, we would happily stay here again. A beautiful hotel in an amazing location, with genuinely lovely people working there.
