"This was honestly the best hotel experience I’ve ever had. Filled with Old World charm. It’s a true bed & breakfast in a family estate of multiple generations led by a matriarch who runs the show. You sit and have breakfast with several of them when they’re visiting, it’s remarkable - the bubbly grandson, his brilliant mother who is a local tour guide, and the elderly parents. The gardener/pool guy and maid also display have deep affection for the family and the home. There are orange, lemon, and olive trees. The olive oil is from the trees you see from the mansion windows. The pool is cleaned constantly and also charming.
The room itself was perfect. I had a desk, which was really helpful as I had to work throughout my stay, the bed was comfortable, and the AC got so cold even in the heat wave that I had to turn it off! The bathroom was clean and had everything I needed. Parking was no issue.
I am surprised this place isn’t on AirBnB. It would win awards. It’s perfect for people who want a personalized experience over a stuffy concierged stay. It’s not a traditional hotel. It’s a gorgeous mansion of which you rent a room. There is total privacy (each room has its own keys of course) and the upstairs floor that hosts the guests is in a separate portion of the house from where the owners stay downstairs.
The bad reviews seem geopolitical (UK colonized Malta) and irrelevant to your stay. This is a magical, dreamy, stunning place to stay with the kindest, funniest family."
