Very clean and very helpful staff. Nice breakfast. Grace was a sweetheart. The only issue is we could not figure out how to make the rainfall shower head work in room 8. Perhaps some instructions in the room / shower would be helpful.

An excellent boutique hotel perfectly located for walking to the many places to visit in Mdina and Rabat. Very close to the main bus stops and restaurants. The hotel is in a grand old building, fully and tastefully modernised inside. Our room was spacious and well appointed. And spotlessly clean. Breakfast was generous; we appreciated the range of fruits. Grace made us very welcome throughout our 3 day stay and was very helpful on practicalities like transport. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily return.

What a great find - a posh, beautiful place hosted by very charming Mariella. She was very proactive in communication & made sure our comfort needs were met. We felt very well taken care of by hardworking Richard who was in charge of the kitchen/breakfast. Amazing rooftop & hot tub. Superb location with easy access to Rabat & Medina. Can’t wait to stay again.
