amazing stay!
attentive staffgreat serviceamazing locationkind staff
this hotel is amazing! i stayed here and the service is out of this world. the staff is kind, attentive and will do everything you ask (and more!). the location is great and i would definitely return.
i think the only thing i could fault slightly is i found one area a little noisy due to corridor traffic.
Dining

i enjoyed the freshly made breakfasts every day, and the dinners were excellent, often accompanied by live music. the breakfast includes a wide choice and abundance of items from the menu.

the service was world class, from arrival to departure (a 9 night stay!). caterina and her front of house colleagues are a credit to the hotel and nothing was too much trouble.

the hotel features a fine rooftop pool with comfortable loungers. the location is perfect, nicely away from the hustle and bustle of valletta (but only moments away by boat!).
