Stayed here for four nights on our mini honeymoon. The hotel benefits from a perfect location for exploring Valletta and the island. At the top of Republic Street and next to the bombed out Opera house it’s an easy place to find, and the bus station is only a 5 minute walk away.
Set in a magnificent restored baroque building, public areas are finely decorated with many interesting artefacts and pictures (even the conference room!) They haven’t forgot about modern amenities though, the air con is a welcome chilled wall when you walk in from the heat of the Maltese summer. There’s a lift too, if you don’t want to use the well carpeted wide staircases.
We had opted for a suite #23, and it didn’t disappoint. Set on 2 levels, a comfortable sitting room complete with vintage furniture and a full bathroom downstairs. Upstairs a large bedroom with a huge comfortable bed and another bigger full bathroom. Both bathrooms had rain style showers but no bath, premium toiletries, and the towels were big and very fluffy. There’s plenty of storage upstairs and down, and a tv in both rooms too.Two large carafes of mineral water were refilled daily, only thing missing was fresh milk in the fridge. Separate air con units upstairs and downstairs keep things cool.
The roof top terrace is a fantastic place to watch the hustle and bustle of Republic Street down below.
Breakfast was very good, decent range and well cooked.
Service was impeccable and friendly. Highly recommended.
