Früher wahrscheinlich eine Referenz. Heute maximal durchschnittlich. Hotels mit überall Teppich geht nicht mehr. Cappuccino beim Frühstück mit 3 Euro sep. verrechnet… geht gar nicht.

Die perfekte Unterkunft für einen Aufenthalt in Valletta. Zu Fuss ist Valletta einfach und schnell erreichbar. Die Unterkunft hat einen schönen Pool und zudem einen Zugang zum Meer. Die Poolumgebung ist ideal zum entspannen. Die Zimmer sind grosszügig und mit Sicht auf die Bucht. Zur Begrüssung gibt es einen Drink und im Zimmer wartet eine Flasche Maltesischer Wein. Man fühlt sich willkommen.
