AX ROSSELLI * * * * *
Opened in May 2019, this very beautiful hotel is set in the Palazzo Merkanti, a magnificent 17th century Baroque palace whose first owner was Grand Master Pietro Roselli, a wealthy silversmith, Maltese philanthropist and member of the Order of the Knights of Malta. If the beauty of its structure has been respected, its interior decoration has been applied to magnify it with delicacy and lightness. Around the central courtyard, the hotel is organised into six collections of rooms, 25 in total, each offering a specific universe: a calm and serene atmosphere for the Wellbeing collection, floral motifs from the secret gardens of La Valette for the Garden collection, Maltese soil for the Terrazzo collection, a harmonious dialogue between the old and the modern for the Green collection, an evocation of a contemporary palace for the Duplex collection or a subtle interpretation of materials for the Designer Suite collection. A particularly attentive and totally personalized service contributes to the feeling of well-being and serenity emanating from the whole.
We had a wonderful 8 night stay. The staff were very friendly and attentive and the room was well equipped and comfortable. The hotel is in a central location which is perfect for exploring Valletta and for catching ferries to other parts of the island. The sun shone throughout our stay although it was very windy at times.
Rosselli team as also the Grain restaurant team alike are really amazing. The culinary experience is one of a kind also.
I can only recommend the hotel, it’s staff and the restaurant with it’s special Michelin star cook
Breakfast was excellent and the staff were thoughtful, attentive and always courteous,making for a relaxed start to the day. Special mention for the reception staff, Jennifer and Eleni for their cool heads, professional manner and problem- solving skills -much appreciated.
