Il Palazzin Hotel (St. Paul's Bay, Malta)

Rooms offer a beautiful sea view. The housekeeping staff ensure they are serviced on a daily basis with clean bed linen and towels. Guests appreciate the comfortable beds and the use of a fridge within rooms.

The hotel is set in a quiet area and therefore perfect for couples who want a tranquil, relaxed holiday. The immediate area around the hotel is likewise quiet. For a change of pace, there is an extremely reasonable bus service that travels to the nearest bars and restaurants. Buses also travel all over the island, which allows easy and inexpensive exploration.

The morning breakfast buffet offers a wide variety of dishes to choose from. Evening meals also offer a good selection to choose from. The meals are of a very good quality and the portion size is generous. For quantity, quality and choice, the hotel’s food is also very good value for money.

Some former guests found the hotel somewhat lacking in atmosphere. The lounge area is mostly vacant and therefore not particularly lively in the evenings. No music is played in the bar and football matches on the television disrupt conversation.

The area surrounding the hotel is quiet, this is in part due to vacant buildings around the hotel. Some of these are being renovated, other structures are in the processed of being constructed. While construction work won’t always be an issue, the noise has caused some disruption to former guests.

The lounge bar doesn’t open until four in the afternoon, so there are no bar snacks, nor hot or cold drinks served prior to this time and guests requiring something to eat or drink have to go elsewhere.
