Pre the pandemic we tried to visit Malta once a year for a week break. We have always stayed in the Ax hotel complex. We have settled on the Palazzo Capua for the last several stays because it gives us the comfort of a small hotel, there are only about 6 huge comfortable rooms with all the facilities of the larger AX hotels next door. What makes the Ax hotels is not the facilities or the restaurants or the rooms or even the great location (all of which are excellent) it is the staff and there are not enough nice things that you can say about them. If you want to be somewhere that is friendly and helpful and that you will feel cared for.. The Victoria or the Palace or the Palazzo depending on your style preferences and budget are an excellent choice. One we will be choosing again once we can get a flight.
