What a fabulous boutique hotel the Palazzo Paolina is. Located on St Paul’s street perfectly positioned just off Merchant Street (near to the best gelato in Valletta) and only 10 minutes walk to the Malta Experience (a good pick up for out of city tours) and the e city gates. The rooms are comfortable and a good size - ours had a small balcony as well- and the bathroom was well equipped with great shower water pressure. Bottled water was provided every day and the room had a coffee machine and a kettle. Breakfast Buffett was available daily and provided hot and cold dishes. It catered to practically every taste. The staff were very friendly and helpful - no request was ever too much. Overall a gem of a hotel in a great location. Will certainly visit again!!

I spent a most enjoyable week here. The hotel was relatively quiet in an area convenient for most sights and local restaurants. Very comfortable room, good quality bed, but the carpet could do with a deep clean. Good sized shower room and nice toiletries. All the staff were extremely friendly and very helpful with suggestions and directions. I would definitely recommend.

The staff defines the word professional. Jelena, Aleksandra, Bhagawati, and Smriti went above the call of duty in helping me. Gracious and caring, they were always there for me. The owners were friendly, like next door neighbors. I can’t wait to go back.

My wife and I were on the 4th floor where there is a frosted glass landing outside the elevator by the door. Those of a nervous disposition, though, should not be put off. The bathroom was very large and clean, with the shower (having both an handle held and overhead shower head) being very enjoyable. The room facilities included a small fridge and tea making facilities, as well as easily controllable air conditioning and (we visited in August) 2 complementary bottles of water daily. The street outside the hotel was being used for ongoing work and deliveries for nearby buildings so wasn't what you might call picturesque. This by no means detracted from the hotel though, as a few steps either way once outside the hotel, provided access to side streets leading towards the town centre. Once of the bets things about the hotel as the fact that it was perfectly quiet and we were able to sleep soundly every night. The hotel staff were extremely helpful and assisted in arranging a taxi form the airport on arrival. On departure we took one of the excellent bus services. The Breakfast was a small but perfectly formed buffet served in the atmospheric basement. All-in-all a very pleasant and highly recommended hotel. Thank you

It was in a great location for the Theatre as it was a late ending show. Oh please note that you are looking for a double door, not much signage, as we walked past it twice. Not a photo of the hotel but one of the theatre.

Very central

This hotel is in the centre of Valletta and within walking distance of all the beautiful places to visit there. The hotel is in a quiet but central road, a historic house with a lot of local charm. The staff are very friendly and helpful.
