The latest addition to the capital city, AX The Saint John, a boutique accommodation was once a former merchant’s residence and shop. It has now been elegantly converted to provide an intriguing and hospitable setting. The building has been revamped to showcase its architectural features. While the furnishings might still have an industrial feel, it still provides warmth and style with a strong focus on guest comfort. The natural light from the central courtyard makes the entrance welcoming. The property provides the latest technology for guests to enjoy the comfort and facilities needed and expected by the modern traveler.

How perfect was this place....absolutely! Ideally located in the main hub of Valetta, handy for everything. Strange arrangement checking in at The Roselli, but only 50 yds away, but no reception at St Johns however. No bother... Room was adequately sized wish large bathroom. Wine in the fridge, water, coffee, tea etc Breakfast at The Roselli was superb. Cereal, yoghurt, eggs, on a muffin, anywhichway. Followed by a tiered cake-stand of fruit, cheese, meats, and pastries. Fruit juice and smoothies, coffee and tea, unlimited. Even Prosecco if you fancied..... Best thing about the hotel...the staff. All so polite and friendly. Reception, breakfast, and ancillary staff so happy to make you happy....perfect. The service was 5*, but the price only 3*......so win-win. Was there on a Jet2 4-night 'holiday'.....Thoroughly recommended. Thankyou everyone...........

We enjoyed staying for a week at this wonderful hotel. Located on Merchants Street in the heart of Valletta within easy walking distance of all the sights and many bars and restaurants. The hotel was quiet and very relaxing. The room was clean and very well equipped. This was an ideal base for exploring Valletta and surrounding areas and we would definitely stay here again.

This is a delightful boutique hotel. Our room was a good size, spotlessly clean, with a good size shower room & WC. Sufficient hanging and drawer space, tea & coffee making facilities, and air conditioning. The service was excellent and we would recommend having the breakfast included - that was really very good indeed. Excellent location in Central Valletta. We would highly recommend this hotel.

Me and my friends enjoyed our stay. Breakfast staff were amazing especially Katho who is very friendly,attentive and welcoming. The mocha is a must try, absolutely delicious. The staff at the front desk were also amazing. Everyone provides high standard quality service. The location is a great spot in the center of Valletta,super convenient and easy to find.

We had a few nights here celebrating our anniversary. The hotel staff were amazing. Everyone we interacted with made our stay that little bit more special. 🫶🏻. Reception is at their sister hotel a few steps away. The location is fantastic, right in the middle of Valletta so getting about was easy. We had a superior room which was large and had everything we needed. The added touch of a “heart towel” and bubbles on ice was amazing from the staff. 💞. There are busy bars outside but once the windows and doors were shut there was only a slight noise late at night, it didn’t annoy us at all. We booked breakfast which is at the sister hotel and wow how amazing was that 🤗. The staff at breakfast were all amazing too. I require gluten free food along with other food intolerances and they didn’t make a fuss and accommodated this impeccably. We spent an evening at the “cheeky Monkey” outside our hotel. Drinks were great along with the snack food we had, a good place with a good vibe. We will be returning to Valletta at some point and will definitely be returning to this hotel. Thankyou to everyone that made our stay magical 💞
