I had a fantastic stay at Rosselli. I’m not even sure where to start…! The staff were really friendly and helpful. The room was wonderful - very comfy bed, great amenities, extremely spacious and even had a sauna! Location is fantastic - right in the middle of Valletta and close to everything but the room was really quiet, which was an unexpected bonus in such a noisy, busy city! Thanks again to the team for such an amazing welcome / stay - I will definitely be back!

I booked this hotel for two nights (separate bookings) because of the announced spa facilities. Thing is; there is no spa there. In other words, it didn’t feel trustworthy. Besides they woke me up with insisting door knocking after midnight with “room service” I never ordered. Felt a bit scary in the middle of he night. Same thing happened at daytime while resting. The person was so insisting I had to say I was naked on my way to the shower to get peace. Sometimes the service is a bit “too much”, e.g when you have to say “no thanks” many times about the same kind offer, it feels unpleasant, especially when you’re a polite person that don’t like to reject people. Apart from that the place itself is beautiful and the breakfast tasted great. The location is also perfect.

Exceptional Service and Culinary Excellence!
We had a wonderful stay at Rosselli AX Privilege.
From a warm, professional check-in to a seamless departure, the staff made us feel truly at home.
The breakfast was a highlight—fresh, cooked-to-order, and a fantastic variety. Huge thanks to Samjhana, Daman, and Rohit for their friendly and knowledgeable service. The Michelin-star quality is evident, especially in the beautiful outdoor seating area.
Our room was spotlessly clean, though the layout was a bit unusual (no makeup mirror) and the TV was a little slow. However, the incredible service outweighed these minor points. Umair was very helpful, and a special thank you goes to our butler, Hark Chand. His professionalism and attention to the finer details made our stay truly memorable.
Highly recommend for anyone visiting Valletta—we will definitely be back!

Excellent room - we were on the corner of the second floor for 4 nights, with Maltese balcony on each aspect, right in the heart of Valletta; lively, historical, richly cultural. Walking distance to a large majority of cultural / historical / archeological sites in Malta. Staff were excellent, service was excellent, thank you for having us.

Lovely period hotel with excellent staff. Like the terrace on the top floor but the pool was smaller than expected. Central location but not bothered with any noise. Rooms could be better designed but there are limitations in a period mansion. Have come home relaxed and refreshed so a good trip.

Amazing stay
I have never felt more welcomed and at home in any hotel before the amenities are amazing. The food was amazing. The service was amazing and let me just tell you about the staff. The staff is absolutely incredible. Customer service is amazing. I just want to personally think Rose at the front desk For accommodating me and for taking care of all of my needs, and this extends to the rest of the staff, every single person employed there has been nothing short of amazing

So we arrived at the hotel and Very clean and very well presented lobby. The staff welcomed us as soon as we arrived with a couple of glasses of proseco and and room upgrade.
We stayed in a junior suite and it was gorgeous with a balcony overlooking merchant street and . The staff could not do enough for you always very polite and helpfully particularly the concierge. It really was the 5 star service.
The rooftop area was also gorgeous. I could not recommend this hotel enough felt very special staying there.
