great!
Pros:

The location was a 10/10, super close to absolutely everything: the bus station, the ferry ports, shops, touristic attractions, restaurants. It is located right where the main street starts, very close to the Triton Fountains.
The property looks very nice, it is a renovated italian pallazzo. We booked the suite, it was clean, quite spacious. We enjoyed the little sweet treats they left us such as biscuits and chocolate on our pilllows or a plate of fruits. The room has nice amenities, iron and iron board, mini fridge, coffee machine, water bottle that is refilled daily and various stuff for the bathroom such as toothbrush, shaving kit, showercap etc.
The breakfast was super tasty, made fresh a la carte (not buffet) with quite a few options to choose from.
The staff were great, receptive to our problems/askings, the manager and a recepionist even came to talk to us during the breakfast just to make conversation and welcome us, very nice people!

Cons:

In our first room there was a leak in the lower bathroom ceiling (the suite has 2 bathrooms) and our bathroom had some water accumulated on the floor (this problem arised in the first night of staying there). We communicated this to the staff, they tried something, it didn’t work, and so they moved us to another room that was almost identical. So in the end not an issue whatsoever for us! Many thanks for the very attentive staff!

An excellent venue
Pros:

We recently held an international workshop at Domus Zamittello, and the experience was excellent. Our participants were very impressed by the beautiful venue, as well as the quality of the coffee breaks and lunches.

A special thank you to Lara Vassallo Micallef, who was exceptional throughout the planning and delivery of the event, and to Moul Hajjar, who ensured that everything ran smoothly.

I would highly recommend Domus Zamittello for conferences and workshops, and we will certainly consider hosting future events there.

An exceptional stay in the heart of Valletta
Pros:

Domus Zamittello exceeded every expectation we had.

The location is perfect for exploring Valletta on foot, while the peaceful atmosphere makes you forget you're in the heart of the city. Our room was elegant, comfortable, spotlessly clean and beautifully maintained throughout our stay. Every detail reflected the care and quality that define the hotel.
What truly made the difference, however, was the service. Every member of the team was genuinely welcoming, professional and attentive, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. The hotel offers excellent value for the overall experience, combining history, comfort and outstanding hospitality. The amenities were thoughtfully selected, everything was impeccably maintained, and despite its central location, the noise level was remarkably low, allowing us to enjoy peaceful and restful nights.
Luxury is not only about beautiful surroundings it is about how a place makes you feel. Domus Zamittello gets that exactly right. We left with wonderful memories and would not hesitate to stay here again.
Highly recommended.

A Masterpiece of History, An Art of Hospitality
Pros:

Domus Zamittello is far more than a beautifully restored heritage hotel. It is a masterpiece where history is not simply preserved but it is alive, breathing through every space. Every stone, every carefully selected piece of furniture, every architectural detail and every thoughtfully curated interior reflects profound respect for the remarkable story of this extraordinary 16th-century palazzo. Every corner invites you to pause, admire and become part of its timeless elegance.

Yet what makes Domus Zamittello truly exceptional goes far beyond its breathtaking beauty and impeccable service. Its greatest treasure is its people. Having travelled extensively and met people from all over the world, I can confidently say that genuine kindness cannot be taught, nor can authentic hospitality be staged. Every member of the team welcomed us with warmth and effortless grace, making us feel less like guests and more like part of the Domus Zamittello family. Every interaction was natural and heartfelt - a beautiful reminder of what True hospitality is meant to be.

After staying at Domus Zamittello, we didn’t simply notice the MICHELIN Key , we experienced exactly what it represents. It is the natural recognition of a place where heritage, architecture, design, impeccable service and genuine hospitality come together in perfect harmony.

We leave with unforgettable memories, immense gratitude and profound admiration for everyone who has dedicated themselves to preserving not only an extraordinary historic building, but also the timeless Art of Hospitality.

In a world where true hospitality is becoming increasingly rare, Domus Zamittello stands as a benchmark of excellence: a place where history, elegance and humanity exist in perfect harmony.

Cons:

Leaving. Some places deserve more than just a few nights...they deserve to be experienced without watching the clock.

A Window into History
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Domus Zamittello. The hotel was exceptionally clean, and the amenities were top-notch, making everything feel comfortable and well taken care of. I love experiencing history and this hotel was a perfect window into that era of time.

What truly made the experience stand out was the staff—especially Sandra. She was friendly, welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable about Malta. She went out of her way to make us feel at home, treating us more like family than guests and offering genuine hospitality throughout our stay.

Overall, the combination of a well-maintained property and such warm, attentive service made our visit especially memorable.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful hotel
Pros:

The location of the hotel was perfect, set just inside the old town of Valetta. Easy to access all the shops, bars, restaurants and tourist attractions of the city and just a couple of minutes from the bus station for trips out or airport transfers.
There was a large selection of breakfast items to select from and all freshly prepared and brought to your table with bottomless tea, coffee, juice etc.
The hotel itself is very well managed and the staff are all friendly and engaging, welcoming you back from your day out or wishing you a lovely day /evening as you head out.
I appreciated the thoughtful extra touches the hotel provided such as fresh water in the room topped up twice a day or more if required.
The room was well appointed with all that was needed for a comfortable stay. Soft towels and robes, a comfortable bed and pillows and tea/coffee facilities.
I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone wishing a stay in Valetta.

Cons:

There wasn't anything that I did not like about this hotel. The bar and restaurant were closed for refurbishment during our stay but you are spoilt for choice with plenty of alternatives nearby. Despite the bar not being fully open, wine and beer were available to enjoy so nothing to complain about.

Wonderful hotel
Pros:

Wonderful hotel, amazing staff, and great customer service.

Rooms are nicely decorated and the hotel celebrates the history of the building it’s located within wonderfully.

The rooms are nicely appointed and the furnishings are of very high quality. Coffee and tea are conveniently available in the room.

Breakfast was delicious and the staff completely understood and accommodated our needs for gluten free options.

The hotel location is perfect for seeing Vallarta and the near by attractions. There are also abundant dining and shopping options just steps from the hotel.

We loved our stay at the Domus Zamittello and highly recommend the hotel.

Historic Charm, Exceptional Service, Unforgettable Stay
Pros:

My stay at Domus Zamittello Hotel in Valletta was wonderful. This is a lovely historical boutique hotel that beautifully combines old-world charm with modern comfort. The rooms are cozy, relaxing, and thoughtfully designed, and the amenities are excellent.

What truly made the experience exceptional was the warm and attentive staff. A special thank you to Mohit at the front desk, who was absolutely wonderful. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the many places to visit in Malta and was always happy to share recommendations. He also went above and beyond by helping us organize drivers and excursions, making our trip seamless and stress-free.

I highly recommend Domus Zamittello Hotel to anyone visiting Valletta. I would gladly stay here again and would definitely recommend it to my family and friends!
