    Palazzo Castagna is an ideal resort if you want to spend your honeymoon, if you have business to conduct or just want to simply enjoy Maltese life. I was impressed by their hospitality. I even received a free upgrade to the room. Great mini bar, great room, great area to stay - a classic Maltese one. The hotel is close to Valletta and the airport. You can either take a taxi, drive a car (what an experience to drive on the left), or take a bus. You can finish your night at their rooftop restaurant, near their rooftop pool. Ps: try their pinsa. :)

    Very good hotel , well placed, the view from rooftoop is very nice, pool and breakfast are very good, but this nothing compared to the amazing staff, they were the ones who made our stay very memorable, big thanks to Mary joy for giving us a premium room, and also to her welcoming smile, also big thanks to Vishal in the bar on the rooftoop and another thanks to Krishna, very passionate guy of wine, he prepares amazing cocktails too.

    Exceptional place but mediocre breakfast

    Breakfast was a huge disappointment. It was a mediocre buffet with not many options if you're not into English breakfast or kelloggs. Honestly this made a dent into the otherwise flawless experience at this hotel. Also, the pool bar has very average cocktails and food...

    The room was well designed, comfortable, huge and clean. We enjoyed both pools, the staff was helpful and friendly. We loved the location, the village, the church just outside the hotel. Everything was perfect except the food.

    We did not have a balcony, which might be worth checking before booking. Hence no place to dry our beach towels but they offered a laundry service which was a good gesture. It would help to have more hangers on the wall for the bathroom towels; we struggled with the three of us. For such a great hotel, I expected more sophisticated food at the restaurant which was a pub food. You need a car to move around and if you want to have lunch/dinner outside ( 7 min from Marsaxlokk which is perfect)..

    Exceptional hotel with very friendly staff. Great breakfast, wish it would be on the roof though, outside. We enjoyed witnessing the religious celebrations which were outside of the hotel. Fotos provided online are a true representation of the hotel.

    The breakfast room although nice and beautifully decorated was a little crowded, the tables quite near to one another, you could easily hear everyone else talking but it was not a big deal.

    Nice hotel, quiet and peaceful neighbourhood. Clean, we had the windows of our room facing a inner courtyard, at the base floor but it was ok.
