Set on Xlendi promenade, with views and gentle sounds of the Mediterranean Sea is this lovely hotel. We chose a room with sea view and sat on the balcony to read each evening and to watch the sun go down before dinner. The Zafiro restaurant is outstanding and we think it is very good value considering the amazing quality…what a great chef they have here! All of the staff were friendly and helpful and we couldn’t have had a nicer stay. Rooms are clean and practical and have TV, tea and coffee making facilities, en suite and hair dryer. I suggest you bring shampoo and a bar of soap unless you like liquid soap dispensers but I’m ‘old school’ and like my own products. Close by is a small but well stocked convenience store, fish bar, and a collection of small but pleasant bars and cafés. A cocktail bar is a short walk up the hill and is worth a pre dinner drink…but don’t forget to return here for an excellent meal. There’s a local bus nearby (2€) and the island tour buses stop here too just 50 yards away. Taxis are available and good value eg getting to the capital cost us 8€ (We used Bolt app for this). Gozo is a beautiful, gentle paced island and is well worth a visit. We were staying in Malta and came to this hotel for 5 nights, travelling from Valletta by fast ferry. (3€ Single).
