Best Hotels near Dar Il-Bebbux, Hal Ghaxaq

We have been to Talbot & Bons boutique hotel in December 2020 but since I had to restart my TripAdvisor account I am rewriting all reviews. We visited during covid and we can assure you that all the necessary measures were taken into account. The breakfast had a great choice unlike other hotels who reduced choice blaming covid. The lady serving us breakfast helped us select the items and place them for us in a plate so no one will pick and choose him/herself, very safe. The yard is peaceful to enjoy your daily breakfast. Pity it wasn't summer cause they have a lovely pool too close to the Breakfast area! Rooms are all beautifully decorated, spacious with plenty of amenities too. The boutique hotel is located in a little village very close to the airport but we were impressed that we heard no planes at all. Parking exactly in front of hotel is not possible but just 2min walk away is the village square with plenty of parking spaces, really comfortable. Will definitely revisit when in Malta :)

Stayed for 7 nights in a deluxe room on 10th floor. Check in was easy and very efficient. Room was large with a decent balcony. Bathroom had separate shower and bath. Not very many electric points and no USB charging points. Overall the room was good but in need of modernising. We had an issue with knocking from the water pipes ( not in our room) for our whole stay. Breakfast was plentiful, but limited options for vegetarian and even less for vegan choice. Pool area was great, with lots of loungers and shaded areas. Staffing at the pool bar seemed to be a bit hit or miss, one day 6 staff, the next day 2. Service at the hotel bar was also an issue on a few occaisions, mainly when there were conference groups. The location of the hotel was great, but not for those who would struggle with stairs. Overall great location, but faded granduer and some staffing issues

Returned 2 weeks ago after a wonderful week saying at The Palace Hotel. It took a long time to decide where to stay in Malta given the enormous choice and yet very mixed reviews, however I was really pleased we settled on The Palace. I did 1 less star for 'value', but this wasn't just in relation to The Palace as I thought generally hotel's in Malta were definitely on the pricier side. The room was lovely with the biggest bed I’ve ever seen and we had some lovely touches such as a daily visit from hospitality asking if we needed anything, and a bottle of filtered water changed daily. An excellent idea and far better than the frequent plastic bottles and subsequent waste. We also arrived on my husband’s birthday and quite unexpectedly in the evening, a lovely birthday cake was delivered to our room! From our initial greeting at reception with a lovely local drink and onwards, we had a brilliant service from every single member of staff. They were all very helpful and yet not intrusive. In particular lovely Puja in the wonderful TemptAsian’ restaurant, and Dhilip who served us both by the pool and at the ground floor Talk of the Town restaurant. Both were extremely knowledgeable and gave sound advice regarding choice of meals and suitable local wines. As we like to try local restaurants when we go away, we chose the bed and breakfast option however we were so impressed with the lovely rooftop TemptAsian restaurant we ate there twice. We then went for the buffet in the Talk of the Town restaurant on our last night, where we again had an excellent service from Dhilip, and where the food was well presented and excellent value for money. Sliema is a busy place with lots of hotels, and as other reviewers have stated, The Palace was within the centre of the peninsula, so although it wasn’t in the most picturesque road, given its proximity to all public transport, the ferry and bus stops including the ‘hop on/off’, we felt there was no necessity to hire a car. We did the short ferry over to Valletta many times and a bonus for us was a considerable ‘over 60’ concession. We managed to cram a lot in during our week in Malta from the numerous museums, tombs, caves and other historical places, in addition to exploration of the island on both the north and south hop on/off buses and brief trip to Gozo. I’m not sure we could not have done quite so much had we not been in such an ideal location. The other bonus was on the days we were back in time, having a swim in the gorgeous rooftop pool, and the Happy hour cocktails between 3 and 5 pm. Highly recommend this as a wonderful place to stay in Malta.

We stayed in an Ocean view room. The view from the balcony was great. You can overlook Valletta and you can also see a very beautiful view of Sunset. The room was clean and tidy. Also, even though it was earlier than the check-in time, they were kind enough to respond. The price is reasonable even though it is in the downtown area, and the ferry terminal to Valletta is close, and the bus stop is also close, so it is in a convenient location to go anywhere. I want to use it again.

I loved this place even though it was only a one night stay, we were greeted by a nice and friendly receptionist. It is within walking distance to the bay/beach. very nice location, the rest of the staff were very nice polite and friendly. a complimentary water and wine was available in the room. I will differently be coming back.

The hotel is very well designed and it offers you every comfort that you need. The rooms are spacious and with great interiors, comfortable beds and all you can need for trip. The pool terrace is great to chill out with variety of drinks and cocktails, and the views are the best parts. You feel like you are watching a post card. The pool is not a big one, you barely get to swim around, and it is more to chill down and relax. The coffee and snack bar downstairs offers nice breakfast. It is a bit far away from the main attractions and events, so you better plan to catch some taxi or a public bus.

Recently we had a holiday in Malta and had the pleasure of staying at B&B De Rohan in the village of Zebbug. The place was very well presented and more than exceeded our expectations. Our room with the ensuite bathroom was spacious and immaculately presented as well as everywhere else on the property. The place is furnished to perfection. The swimming pool area is very well maintained and extremely pleasant to lounge around in the evening with a glass of vino. The owner Lynn makes you feel very much at home. It is like a home away from home. She is a rare gem to find in the hospitality industry and is very knowledgeable about the sites to visit on the island. Her tips were very helpful. We wholeheartedly recommend this place and will certainly stay here again next time we visit Malta.

This is such a treat, to write about a hotel we loved. This truly is made so special by the staff, from the top to the bottom. Fabulous attitudes to guests from the staff, the reception team are super welcoming . Rooms are modern and spacious , some boast sea views. Breakfast was as good as any , without a 'Four seasons 'price tag. And when the General manager offers you a coffee as he sees that breakfast was busy!!! We were blown away, normally everyone is busy so you get ignored not here. Margaux restaurant is great use of the space in the evening , saves going out. Great cocktails served in the bar in the evening at great prices. Stand out member of staff was Petra on reception. Great view from the beach front bar.
