Lovely hotel in a great spot. Tasty breakfast every morning. We didn’t eat in the restaurant in the evenings as we went out for food. Dora was the highlight of our stay, at this hotel, she manages the hotel and its guests so well. She’s lovely to talk to, very knowledgeable and will help with recommendations or any plans you want to make. The hotel is lucky to have her working there. I will definitely be back with my Mum as she will love it here.

I had the opportunity to stay at the AMAZING IBB Hotel Palazzo Bettina recently for just over a week with family and the well thought out accommodation choice did not disappoint. The building is steeped in history, charm, comfort and character. The location of the hotel in Birgu (Vittoriosa) was ideal. It was close enough to walk to historic landmarks and just a short ferry ride to Valletta. Furthermore, it has a rooftop pool and terrace with incredible views. We opted for a package that included freshly made breakfast. We appreciated the convenience and the made-to-order breakfast was always a nice start to the day. There is a gelato shop, Sottozero, located just outside of the hotel; it was visited daily. We appreciated it’s locale, its convenience and the yummy gelato that we consumed regularly throughout our stay. What really makes IBB Hotel Palazzo Bettina so special are the people that work there. The service was impeccable and exceeded all expectations. I was fortunate enough to have interactions with Dora, Roman, Alberto, Olivier (Ollie) and Romalyene. Each and every one of them, in their own way, touched our lives in a positive manner. They care about their guests and it shows in everything they do!!!! Dora is an absolute gem and deserves additional praise. She left a mark on my heart that will remain with me always. I feel incredibly blessed that we have crossed paths with such lovely people. They made the stay truly memorable and I would most definitely book with this incredible establishment in the future should I be fortunate enough to return to the beautiful island of Malta. Thank you ALL for making our stay top notch. We are forever grateful! ❤️

The hotel is located in a beautiful location with stunning views. We arrived really early and were greeted by the manager Adrian who was so helpful and hospitable, treating us to a nice glass of Prosecco. Rooms are normally ready at 3pm. We were called at 11.30am to say our room was ready. The room was absolutely beautiful with vaulted ceilings, spacious bathroom with an excellent shower and loads of toiletries. The tea and coffee making facilities were superb, also a well stocked mini bar along with snacks. The room featured a lovely balcony with great views. The bed was extremely comfortable. The crowning glory of this delightful hotel has to be the roof terrace. It features a great pool, hot tub and shower. Sun beds, deckchairs and seating area with soft towels provided. Food and drinks can easily be ordered using the phone on the terrace. The views from the roof were spectacular and we spent the entire afternoon up there, it was so relaxing. There’s loads of nice bars and restaurants all within a short walk. As we only stayed one night we didn’t sample the food here but from what I saw it looked delicious. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. When we come back to Malta we would love to spend longer here.

The hotel is beautiful and the team are exceptional. They offer a very personal service and attend to every detail. Perfectly located for a stroll around beautiful Birgu/Vittoriosa or along the Grand Harbour Marina and for quick and easy trips over to Valetta. Great local restaurants and a lovely roof top pool at the hotel to relax by for a lazy afternoon.

My friend and I spent four nights at this hotel. The staff were amazing! Friendly, helpful and nothing was too much. The room was lovely and clean. The rooftop pool and hot tub was the perfect way to relax after exploring most of the day. Breakfast was fab. Location was great, easy to get to get to Valletta by a small boat and from there you could get a ferry to Gozo. A wonderful experience, I would highly recommend. I will definitely be returning.

Very well situated in Birghu, just a 5 min water taxi into Valletta. Ideally placed on the harbour to be within walking distance of great restaurants and bars,but with a gentler pace than the capital.Close to several great museums and some lovely streets and multiple photo opportunities! Hotel has 13 rooms, with helpful, knowledgeable and attentive staff( they organised us a taxi transfer from the airport as it was a late flight) , right through from reception to breakfast and cleaners alike. Previously a merchant’s house, tastefully decorated but still retaining all the architectural charm. Room was large with air con, and breakfast was a feast( not a buffet but rather served individually from a menu and as much as you could eat) . Rooftop pool and jacuzzi with excellent views of the harbour was perfect for spending a couple of hours relaxing. Hotel doesn’t have a bar, but drinks could be ordered from reception and there was a mini bar in the room. Excellent ice cream shop round the corner well worth a visit! Would definitely return!
