The Xara Palace Relais & Chateaux

The Xara Palace Relais & Châteaux, a distinguished five-star boutique retreat hidden within Mdina's medieval fortified walls, enchants with its 17th-century noble grace, perched on ancient bastions overlooking the Silent City's timeless baroque splendor.

The 17 luxury rooms and suites unfold with intimate refinement, each individually crafted with antique furniture, original paintings, luxurious Parisian fabrics, and king-size beds, featuring air-conditioned comfort, flat-screen TVs, minibars, and opulent bathrooms with premium toiletries. Stunning views of the bastions or baroque architecture create serene sanctuaries, where the unhurried pace invites quiet reflection. The devoted staff ensures impeccable details, from evening turn-down service to personalized touches that evoke the Knights' legacy.

Dining at the award-winning restaurant celebrates haute cuisine with exquisite Mediterranean flavours, crafted from seasonal island ingredients and paired with fine wines, savoured in an elegant setting with bastion views. The terrace bar offers artisanal cocktails, perfect for sunset toasts amid the historic hush, while a daily breakfast, brimming with fresh Maltese specialties, gently awakens the senses. Guests can immerse in curated experiences, from private Mdina tours to cultural whispers, capturing the city's storied soul with effortless poise.

Steps from Mdina's medieval heart, a short drive from Valletta and Gozo Ferry Terminal, and 25 kilometers from Malta International Airport, The Xara Palace Relais & Châteaux offers seamless access to the island's cultural treasures.
