II Palazzin Hotel

With its Mediterranean charm and central location, Il Palazzin has always been a popular choice for holidaymakers. It features everything required for a stay in the sun, including air-conditioned rooms, modern amenities, friendly service and two pools.

Let’s start with location. You’re just 100 metres from the Qawra Promenade and a nice sandy beach. Walk the other way and it’s less than ten minutes to the heart of Buggiba, with its restaurants, bars and clubs. Transport connections enable you to explore the rest of the island, with opportunities for day trips to attractions across Malta. While Qawra is a built-up area, the hotel remains quiet and the views onto the Mediterranean are surprisingly good.

Rooms are well appointed, with adjustable air conditioning and modern bathrooms. They have panoramic balconies, mostly with views over the pool and gardens; superior sea view rooms cost a little more. Wi-Fi is free and available in the guest rooms as well as the communal areas. Guests can spend their days around the large outdoor swimming pool, which provides a nice balance between sun and shaded areas. There’s also an indoor pool and small fitness room.

There’s a certain Maltese charm to everything, not least the service. Staff are extremely friendly and regularly get to know guests by name. They can provide travel advice and recommendations for the local area and the rest of the island. It all adds up to a hotel that is good quality for its price, offering everything you need without the flashy extras that can make a holiday too expensive.
