A beautiful boutique hotel in the centre of Hal Ghaxaq Church square. Peaceful and relaxing but a great base for visiting the whole of Malta. The bedrooms are beautifully furnished and maintained by a great team of friendly staff. The buffet style breakfast is delicious and fresh. Lovely pool & rooftop bar area. Reception staff all Lovely and knowledgeable headed up by lovely Nirosha 😍

The room was decorated beautifully. It was one of the nicest hotel rooms I’ve ever stayed at. Very comfortable bed and pillows. It had great full length mirrors if you wanted to do an outfit check before going out. There was a rooftop pool with a bar with music, it had a nice vibe. Wish I stayed more than one night. This hotel was close to the airport which is the reason why I chose it as I had a morning flight and I was staying on the other island of Gozo prior to this. I would definitely stay here again.

Great rooms,staff are very polite and friendly. Dislike, the breakfast could have been hotter but I've been assured that new warming plates are being ordered. Maybe the introduction of bacon....we left before, 7am to catch our flight.so missed out on breakfast, staff don't start until 7.30 am. No night porter /reception, for a 4 star boutique hotel not that professional.

The property is a cute boutique hotel; the room was well appointed and staff friendly. I had booked it due to its proximity to the airport as I had an early flight out the next morning. However, there was a EXTREMELY loud concert of some kind right outside which went on until at least 1 am. I was unable to sleep until it was over. I am not sure if this is a common occurrence but if you value quiet when sleeping it is something to consider.

Beautiful hotel, in a quiet residential area. Not many options nearby for eating out, but there is a small supermaket within walking distance. Room was very comfortable, breakfast excellent. Restaurant and cafe in the hotel on the pricier side, but food was excellent. Ample street parking nearby. Recommended.

Spent two days here, very quiet town, very clean hotel with lovely caring staff. Roof top pool wonderful, with great views and cocktails. Ghaxaq is a quiet town with few dining out options, but if you’re looking for somewhere quiet away from the busyness of Valetta, highly recommend. Close to airport too.
