I've never stayed in a hotel quite like this one. It was scenic and very regal within the Palace. The surrounding area is breathtaking. You can't help but want to learn all about the history of Malta. We thoroughly enjoyed that our room was set over 2 floors. It made it that much special. The staff were very welcoming and attentive. Breakfast was excellent. The best hot chocolate I've ever had.

Everything was really good except for the pillows were too flat

The duplex bedrooms were amazing and beautifully decorated as was the internal décor of the whole hotel. First class staff. The breakfast was exceptional and the breakfast dining area delightful in the sunshine.

Location, ambiance, spacious rooms with stunning setting. Highly professional staff. Excellent breakfast.

Mdina is magical, & what a beautiful place to stay in Mdina. The staff looked after me so well, my room was great, so comfortable, spotlessly clean. & the location was perfect. Really enjoyable stay.

The welcome was excellent. I’ve not had such a personal and warm welcome in a hotel before. The general level of helpfulness from the staff from reception to the restaurant was superb. The food in the restaurants was of a very high standard. The beds were also very comfortable, it’s so rare for me to find pillows of the kind of quality I have at home.

building is extraordinary, staff and the restaurant
