Villa Vittoria

We loved this 400-year-old guesthouse. It is family-run and owned by a friendly and helpful couple who can advise re sightseeing, etc. They live onsite, on the ground floor. The lobby is gorgeous for photos, with breathtaking furniture and ornaments. I recommend the experience of staying here, for sure.

My husband and I had a lovely stay at Villa Vittoria. We used Rabat as "home base" during our two-week trip. He was there for business, and I joined him for part of the time. We were very comfortable at Villa Victoria. The ceilings in this historic house are really high and there are beautiful wooden beams. The living area and kitchen were a little cozy, but the bedroom was huge. The host was extremely kind and helpful. Villa Victoria is tucked away on a quiet street. (There was a noisy event at the neighboring restaurant one evening, but that's out of anyone's control!) It's also very conveniently located. You can walk to the Cathedral in Mdina in about 10 minutes. I would stay here again if I am ever fortunate enough to return to Malta.

This 400year old guesthouse is by and wide an ideal place to stay—the owners are a delight and so so helpful—the best place to stay if you are lucky enough to get booked in—and enjoy Medina and Rabat Many fond memories will remain with us thanks to Bernadette and family

We stayed in September in this amazing house full of history very close to Mdina. The "mansion" was filled with historic furniture, and it felt like living in another time. The room was small, but you do not need more and best of all: it was really quiet even though it was fully booked. We slept sound and deep in this historic house. It even had a small inner court where Bernadette served us breakfast and where we could relax after a busy day of sightseeing. Bernadette is a wonderful host, and her cakes are well known even outside of Mdina/Rabat. So don't miss it at breakfast. And she knows so much about the surroundings and has wonderful restaurant tips. She and her husband, Joseph, even drove us to a delicious seafood restaurant just at the boarder of the see - fantastic.
