Breakfast has a good choice from cooked to pastries & fruits. The room was clean with good storage space. The city of Valletta is very walkable so you are never more than 5-10 minutes walk from a restaurant or bar etc.

We recently stayed at this property for a week’s vacation and it was an incredibly lovely boutique hotel. The entire hotel and rooms were very clean, the staff was polite and helpful in every way, and the amenities were superb (breakfast included and rooftop pool and seating area a huge plus!). The hotel is a short walk to all attractions and eateries and right around the corner from a beautiful sea view. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.

Happy with our stay.

Nicely tucked away in very nice area of Valletta, close to all main sites. No noise at night. Friendly cats outside too. Very helpful and friendly staff. Good breakfast with lots of pastry options in particular. Rooftop pool a bonus. Would have been nice to have more natural light coming into the room but understandable depending on which room you are assigned.
