We had an incredible stay at this property! It felt so special to just be inside a building with such a rich history, let alone sleep every night in our gorgeous room. The rooftop pool was such a treat, and to be sunning on a lounger while looking out over the harbour while church bells toll from a church dome less than 100m away felt so surreal. The staff are lovely and so responsive and we felt very well taken care of. The location was also perfect for catching the gondolas to Valletta, or strolling the waterfront. We absolutely loved it here and would highly recommend it.

What an incredible place to stay. Away from the more touristy areas, this former palace is definitely a unique place to stay in Malta. The staff are incredibly helpful, especially Pietro who made our stay very special. The breakfasts are delicious and the pool area is lovely and gives you fantastic views of the Grand Harbour. The rooms are beautiful, ours had a high stone ceiling and a balcony. The beds are comfortable and the air conditioning is perfect during the hot weather. The courtyard is a cool alternative to sitting by the rooftop pool as well. There are lots of great restaurants nearby and a delicous ice cream place just outside at the bottom of the steps. You are just minutes from the small boats that will take you across to Valetta and about 5 minutes walk from the ferry. We will definitely come back.

Small boutique hotel, beautiful rooms, outstanding staff and service. The property is in an incredible location with food, drink, views within a 3 minute walk. It is small, with a lovely roof deck and small pool/hot tub area. Exercise facilities are separate and a few miles away. Breakfast and drinks are available, and as much Nespresso as you can drink for the room. There are many, many restaurants and cafes of all kinds close by. Say hi to Roman and Misha for us!
