This is a lovely little hotel in a quiet part of Valetta: the central area with bars and restaurants is about 10 minutes walk away and it's all up hill! But don't let that put you off, as there are lots of hills in Valetta. The hotel itself is great. The staff were unfailingly helpful and courteous, everyone spoke English and the service was of international standard. The hotel doesn't have a functioning restaurant or bar but it serves a nice breakfast with both Continental and English breakfast options. There's a small but welcome plunge pool on the roof, with sunbeds and a hatch servery offering drinks and snacks during the day - but there's plenty of bars and eating places up the hill, so its not a problem. The decor is modern and the rooms are comfortable and spotlessly clean. Also, the hotel arranged airport transfers for us, which was one thing less to worry about.We were made to feel very welcome and had a very enjoyable stay.

It’s a new hotel (no signs on the building yet) which is modern and very clean. Lovely bathroom. The hotel is very quiet but located approx 5 mins walk from the centre of town and easily walkable to all places of interest. Breakfast is good but a little chaotic as the food area (self service) is about the size of a small galley kitchen and can’t accommodate more than three people. The only real downside - probably the hardest and most uncomfortable bed I’ve ever slept in. Otherwise, it’s ideal for a short break.

Really nice and cozy hotel with an upscale feel. We received a free room upgrade. The room was spacious, modern and comfortable. Breakfast was nice although the dining room was a bit cramped. There's a rooftop pool that's unfortunately not open until noon, so we didn't get to use it as we only stayed one night. However, we were allowed to store our luggage after checking out and would've been allowed to use the pool area along with a shower, which was really appreciated. Great stay, would definitely consider again!

Ótima localização, tivemos um bom atendimento desde a chegada, o café da manhã é excelente e com muitas variedades. Os quartos são confortáveis, amplos e bem limpos. Só deixaria como sugestão permitir o check-out pelo menos 12:00, check-out às 11h é demasiadamente cedo. Ficaria novamente em um retorno a Malta!

Rien à redire, mise à part une demande (via l'accroche-porte) non vue de faire la chambre. Mais ça a été la seule fois en 4 jours. Merci encore pour votre accueil et bienveillance !
