A truly splendid 16th Century noble experience with all the comforts of the 21st Century.
Pros:

The hotel is very central so excellent for visiting the historic sites of Valletta. The room we were assingned was beautifully appointed and the staff could not have been more frendly or helpful. Breakfast was excellent with a wide choice of a la carte dishes. We were particularly impressed with the outdoor plunge pool and roof terrace, as well as the fully equiped spa facilities in the basement which were provided as part of the room price.

Cons:

The road outside the hotel is being dug up which was awkward with luggage and for accessing taxis, but that is only a temporary inconvenience and does not detract from the quality of the hotel.

The best staff.
Pros:

I really want to rate this hotel 4.5, as there is no option to do so, it feels right to rate 5 and give a few pointers.
The staff were exceptional and a huge credit to the hotel. We were given ideas of places to visit from the moment we arrived, as well as a list of recommended restaurants. They were all extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful. Our room was cleaned to a very high standard daily. There was no kettle in the room and I think these should be provided. The bathroom was a surprise as there was a beautiful roll top bath with a handheld shower spray but no shower cubicle, I did find this quite difficult when washing my hair.
The building is old and full of character, there is a central atrium with an open roof. Our room was on the third floor, we had a front door and a window that both opened into the atrium. There was no other window in the room. I did find that when we were in bed we heard the conversations of all other guests that returned to the hotel via the reception. The room definitely needs better sound proofing.
The road outside is currently dug up, the duty manager told us that it had been going on for five weeks (we would have expected to be told about this), cars cannot drive by but you can manage to walk in and out easily enough. This must be extremely difficult for the hotel and it is not their fault. Luckily we are early risers as around 8am the workers start and it would be impossible to sleep through it. Likewise the rooftop pool is simply beautiful, along with the most comfortable looking sun loungers, unfortunately there is building work taking place at this level on the next door property.
The breakfast was buffet along with an à la carte menu, this was good.
All in all a wonderful stay in a beautiful building in an extremely central location.

First Class Boutique Hotel
Pros:

We rated this hotel highly. It is quite small…maybe 13 rooms in a perfect location. Being an old building the rooms are not “modern” but perfectly adequate. The staff were exceptional. From Tony and all the others we always felt welcomed. The breakfast was first class….cant say that often, one small criticism may be that the bar is not quite perfect with drinks sometimes not cold or shots too small. But take nothing away from this place. We loved it and hope to go back one day!

What a find...
Pros:

What a priceless find in the old city of Valletta. With a location is ideal for exploring the city, this boutique hotel is full of old charm and staff that make you feel relaxed and at home from the moment you step through the door, with a welcome drink, cooling towel, and canapes.
I can't call out any one member of staff, as they were all absolutely excellent. The selection of local foods in the room is also a nice touch.
They only serve breakfast and light lunches, which is a shame, but they make recommendations as to where you can dine.
I wouldn't say that this hotel is ideal for those with children, nor if you have mobility issues, as there are quite a few steps. But at the end of the day this is a really old building steeped in history, and it is what it is.
We didn't get chance to use the spa, but the concept of booking it for an hour for your own exclusive use is a great idea.
We had a room that looked out onto the central atrium, it was very spacious. My only suggestion to the hotel is that it maybe better to have walk in showers rather than just a rolltop bath; more economical, and a lot easier to wash your hair. Or if you're booking perhaps check.
Finally, again for the hotel, can you say thank you to the driver that picked us up when came to the hotel. Very welcoming and informative, and we immediately felt welcomed to the city.

Brilliant
Pros:

We have just returned from a 5 night stay at Palazzo Consiglia. From the moment we arrived we were treated so well by all the staff. A special mention for Tony who gave us a tour of the hotel with all facilities and was always on hand for advice on places to eat, things to see etc.. We made use of the spa in the basement area on 2 occasions. It was lovely to have this for 1 hour per session all to ourselves. Our room (Amante) was lovely, although it does not have an exterior window. The roll top bath was nice but fairly difficult to enter and exit, so if you have any mobitily issues (or prefer a walk in shower) then this may not be the room for you. It would also benefit from a few more hooks to hang damp towels or swimwear on as there was only 1 hook.
If you are visiting Valletta for a short break we would highly recommend taking the short ferry over to the 3 cities, visit Mdina and Gozo as a priority.
Thank you once again for a wonderful stay with fond memories

O staff é o melhor deste hotel.
Pros:

Atendimento muito simpático e eficiente. Na vdd, é o melhor neste hotel. Decoração dos quartos e do hotel bonita e cheia de personalidade, Café da manhã bom mas com pouca variedade para o valor cobrado.

Cons:

Reservei o hotel por que as avaliações eram de excelência, mas deparei com algumas situações pouco confortáveis como p ex. o ar condicionado que se mantinha sempre na mesma temperatura já que o sistema é programado para inverno ou verão sem que possamos escolher a temperatura desejada. Passamos calor apesar de ser inverno pq a temperatura, apesar de selecionarmos 16º, voltava sempre para 24º ou 25º, não lembro bem. Uma noite tivemos que abrir a janela que dava para o corredor para conseguir dormir, já que os quartos não tem janela exterior. Reclamei e nos trocaram de quarto mas o calor permaneceu já que o sistema era o mesmo.
Nosso quarto tinha uma clarabóia em cima da cama que comprometia o sono.
Também o chuveiro tinha um vazamento na torneira que ficava pingando e o barulho incomodava.
Banheiro não tem porta mas sim uma cortina, o que compromete a privacidade.
Achei o hotel caro para o que oferece. Existem outros tão bem localizados e bons quanto e com valores melhores, mas como disse, fui pela maioria das avaliações.
