“Palazzo Paolina truly captures the spirit of Valletta; its heart-of-the-city location means everything is easily within reach, a point made even sweeter by a genuinely attentive staff. The suites with their private terraces and jacuzzis are, in my estimation, worth every extra euro for the blissful respite they offer after a day of exploration.
