My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful, with exceptional personalized service from the staff who genuinely cared about making my visit memorable. The breathtaking views of Valletta from various spots around the hotel were simply stunning. I thoroughly enjoyed the delicious breakfast options that varied each day, but I wish the dining choices for lunch and dinner offered more local flavors. The overall atmosphere was relaxed yet sophisticated, making it a perfect getaway. The only minor issue was that the Wi-Fi connection wasn't the strongest in my room, which slightly impacted my ability to plan my daily excursions.
