Lovely hotel and a great place to stay and explore Valletta. The reception staff were extremely helpful and friendly and our room was ready early also. The room was very clean and spacious with a large comfy bed so we will definitely be returning to Palazzo Paolina hopefully in the near future.

Excellent location for Valletta tourism and nightlife but also not too noisy. Stayed in ground floor room which was a little dark, but mostly quiet. Shower was great. Occasionally there were faint drainage smells around the property but this could have been due to the work going on in the next building. Outstanding choice for breakfast, served in a vaulted cellar area. Friendly staff without exception. Would stay again and will recommend to friends and family.

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.

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!!
