Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Casa Ellul, centrally located in Valletta on a charming street, is praised for its delicious breakfast, especially the eggs benedict. Some guests have mentioned that certain rooms, like those facing the inner courtyard on lower floors, can feel a bit dark. However, many enjoyed spacious and comfortable rooms, sometimes featuring balconies with breathtaking views, like those overlooking the stunning cathedral. Guests also appreciate the fine dining experience at the hotel's Risette restaurant, which offers dishes with French influences and serious value for money.

The staff arranged taxis for me quickly. Chocolates was in my room each evening. That was a good little treat. The receptionist from the Philippines was VERY friendly. The breakfast had good food, too.
The bedroom area was small, and my window looked out onto a concrete courtyard.

nice stay!

helpful staffexcellent locationrelaxed staylounge area
The staff was amazing and super helpful. They always had a smile. the location was also excellent. the breakfast was great! but i especially liked the modern room and calm atmosphere. the private terrace with a hot tub and sun loungers gave a view of the sea and city. everything contributed to a relaxed stay.
The website listed a communal lounge area on the fourth floor. I did not find this and it was disappointing.
