The Xara Palace Relais & Chateaux in Mdina, Malta

Enjoy 5-star luxury at the Xara Palace Relais, a 17th-century building set right in Mdina's mediaeval walls. The property features unique and exclusive rooms.

all reviews

We opted for the suite with a terrace and a hot tub, and it was a perfect way to enjoy a relaxing break. The bed was extremely comfy, and the heating was perfect inside the room. The TV offered various channels which we could browse through and the location was quiet and tranquil. Spectacular setting Spacious suites Service fantastic Restaurant options (bistro and formal restaurant) excellent. Fantastic staff; Great Location; Great Facilities and Ambience. Beautiful location, amazing rooms, very helpful staff. The location is awesome. The hotel is historical. The Service and the view. Kindness and availibilty of staff. There was no meal option with our booking so we had to pay extra for breakfast. As we booked a suite, perhaps there could have been some extras included such as airport transfer, welcome drink etc. Room service and breakfast fees are a bit too expensive, considering the amount already paid for the room booking. The bathroom might need some touching up, but otherwise, a perfect stay. Nothing to dislike. The biting insects when you opened the windows should have required the supply of a spray.
