About Domus Zamittello

Welcome to Domus Zamittello, a restored 17th century palazzo, ideally located at the beginning of Republic Street, just as one enters the cultural capital city of Valletta.

Domus Zamittello invites guests to enjoy the vibrant and cultural baroque capital along with its high-end shopping addresses whilst appreciating the architectural beauty of this prestigious building.

The hotel offers accommodation in different elegantly designed classic rooms, some overlooking the hotel courtyard whilst those on South Street overlook the open theatre. This comfortable Hotel is located in Valletta.

This elegant 17th Century home had originally been part of the earlier estate of the Auberge D'Italie, one of the langues of the Order of St John. Recent research dates the palazzo back to 1633 when it was used by various knights of Italian descent.

and was then known as Casa Pensa. In 1805, after the departure from Malta of the Knights of St John, the British Governor granted ownership of the palazzo to Sir Giuseppe Nicola Zamitt, for services to the Crown.

In recent years, the present Count of Mont'Alto, a descendant of Sir Giuseppe Nicola Zamitt after whom the palazzo is now named, embarked on a project to enlarge it and restore the entire property to its former glory.

Opened in 2018, Domus Zamittello has 21 elegant and comfortable rooms, out of which six suites, five of which are spacious duplexes. The spacious 125 sq m sun terrace on the third floor overlooks Republic Street, as well as the entrance to Valletta, the Triton Fountain and beyond.

Reception service is available 24 hours a day.

The team at Domus Zamittello are amazing and wicked attentive! The breakfast was above and beyond with a wonderful mix of speedy and leisurely food options- their fresh squeezed orange juice was our favorite throughout our stay. The room was complete with all that we needed for our stay and then some! Given it is located right in the heart of Valleta, it was easy to get to public transport (bus, ferry, and ride share for sure since that was what we used) that made our exploration so much easier. Overall, would definitely stay again! Thank you, Domus Zamittello team for making our travels so easy!

What a wonderful place. A fantastic hotel which was a quiet haven in the middle of busy Valetta. The staff and service were the best we’ve ever had anywhere! So attentive and helpful. We particularly loved the fact that the senior managers took the time to speak to guests at breakfast each morning, asking them about their plans for the day and making suggestions on places to visit. The breakfast was lovely and the hotel is simply stunning. The rooms were outstanding. The beds were so comfortable, the bathroom had wonderful Penhaligon toiletries and the room was so quiet.

Domus Zamittello is a jewel of a hotel, ideally situated just inside Valletta’s pedestrian quarter, and only a short walk from the Upper Barrakka Gardens and St. John’s Co-Cathedral. The property possesses an elegantly understated decor, while the staff members are uniformly friendly, attentive, and impeccably professional without ever feeling intrusive. In our future travels, Domus Zamittello will stand as the gold standard of what a hotel should be.

Lovely hotel, well appointed rooms with excellent shower rooms. Central location meant the rooms overlooking the pedestrian road could be a bit noisy. Excellent staff gave positive assistance with itineraries and generally couldn’t have been more helpful. I enjoyed breakfast from an extensive menu being served to me for a change. We found a marvellous restaurant (Giannini) 10 minutes walk from the hotel which was quiet, great food and view - we went back 4 nights. Malta itself was a great venue but the advent of cruise ships disgorging hundreds for the day makes these places more difficult to enjoy. We experienced the same on Madeira.

This small, intimate hotel is an absolute gem! The staff is kind and attentive. The interior is gorgeous. My room was spacious and very comfortable. The food in the restaurant was outstanding.

The manager, Moul, stops by each table at breakfast to ask how you are doing and if you need any help with your plans for the day. He gave me great advice regarding transportation and how best to plan my days of sightseeing.

Although it is on the busy Republic Street, once you are inside the doors, you are in a different world. I was not bothered by any street noise in my room.

Overall, a wonderful experience. Be sure to read up on the history of the hotel before your stay. You'll be very impressed. If you're looking for old world charm and impeccable service, do not miss the opportunity to stay in this lovely hotel!

What a wonderful boutique hotel centrally located in Valletta. The room & bath was so spacious and I made good use of the terrace with views of the city. Everyone was so helpful and I appreciated the small gym which I used a few times during my stay. I would recommend this as a place to stay. Just a note to call ahead before your arrival so they can arrange to have someone meet you about a block away to help bring luggage in. Taxis and cars can not stop in front of the hotel.

Wonderful Hotel

This hotel is excellent, and a true gem in the vibrant city of Valletta.

This former palazzo has been updated by the owner to retain its original features; it has all the comfort and style you need in a top-rated boutique hotel. You have no need to hire a car as everything is so close.

The staff are the backbone of the hotel and go above and beyond to please all guests they are exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble, from the General Manager Moul, staff Maria, Sandra on reception and more but I don’t have their names, we were very well looked after just like Royality.

Our room, was a duplex premium suite on the second floor with two bathrooms, it was excellent with every amenity. It had very comfortable beds with premium bedding, and I also enjoyed the use of the third-floor terrace, with views across the city.

Breakfast is not a buffet so all orders are prepared freshly, and you can order whatever you like.

I thought the room might have noise from outside but no it was very quiet and never stopped us from sleeping.

I was that impressed I have booked already to visit this marvellous hotel again in a few months’ time.

We travelled to celebrate my boyfriend's big birthday. From moment we walked through the front door till moment we left, we had the most amazing experience. We had the most amazing upgrade and staff were very attentive to even the smallest detail. On birthday morning we had a surprise at breakfast and extra something in the room for later. Staff always had a good recommendation on what to do, where to go and what's worth seeing and were happy to make bookings and reservations. I don't think I ever felt this welcome and looked after in a hotel before. I think it really made our stay unforgettable.

The hotel is a beautiful and tranquil oasis of calm in the heart of Valletta, my wife and I stayed in room 43 which was just amazing and well appointed with one of the best beds we have ever slept in and had a dual aspect window with the room having both a bath and walking shower. The hotel is a mix of restored original features and modern touches which works so well.

Finally to the staff who we have to say are some of the most attentive and professional we have had the pleasure of staying with in all our travels. From us both a very heart felt thank you to the whole staff at the hotel, who made our stay just so amazing.
The whole team are so lovely, friendly and helpful and made our stay so wonderful, a special thank you to Maria, guest relations manager who booked us a beautiful restaurant to celebrate our stay and was so helpful throughout our stay especially including pushing our check out tine back due to our late flight home to back to the UK

We loved it so much we are only just back home and already looking at booking it again for next Autumn and obviously staying in room 43.

Where to start? Not only was it beautiful, with great staff, close to everything, in the perfect spot for EVERYTHING, but it was also perfect too. The staff were more than that, from Maria to Chani(hope I got it right, forgive me if I didn’t) and MORE, all of them made it the best experience for myself and my family. We loved every minute, woke up excited and ready for more every day and only went to bed because we were staying in a home of homes and got and needed rest and recharge every single night! I would only not recommend, because I’m selfish and I want them all to ourselves! Honestly the best stay I’ve ever had and will definitely try to have again!

Best hotel in Valletta.

Hotel is a five star hotel (even though it has a 4 star rating). Extremely centrally located (on Main Pedestrian Street). Sandra and Maria went above and beyond on their duties at the front desk. Extremely pleased with their service, recommendations, etc. GM was always present asking if there was anything that he could helps us with. Restaurant and housekeeping personnel very attentive and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Upgrade wasn’t for us.

We didn’t get the room we initial asked for. They upgraded us to a suite with stairs.not really an upgrade for us but we didn’t complain. No windows and not good for an older couple. En-suite to upper bedroom way too small. Smelled like sewage when we entered the room. Looks more luxurious in photos however very good service.

Stayed here for four nights on our mini honeymoon. The hotel benefits from a perfect location for exploring Valletta and the island. At the top of Republic Street and next to the bombed out Opera house it’s an easy place to find, and the bus station is only a 5 minute walk away.
Set in a magnificent restored baroque building, public areas are finely decorated with many interesting artefacts and pictures (even the conference room!) They haven’t forgot about modern amenities though, the air con is a welcome chilled wall when you walk in from the heat of the Maltese summer. There’s a lift too, if you don’t want to use the well carpeted wide staircases.
We had opted for a suite #23, and it didn’t disappoint. Set on 2 levels, a comfortable sitting room complete with vintage furniture and a full bathroom downstairs. Upstairs a large bedroom with a huge comfortable bed and another bigger full bathroom. Both bathrooms had rain style showers but no bath, premium toiletries, and the towels were big and very fluffy. There’s plenty of storage upstairs and down, and a tv in both rooms too.Two large carafes of mineral water were refilled daily, only thing missing was fresh milk in the fridge. Separate air con units upstairs and downstairs keep things cool.
The roof top terrace is a fantastic place to watch the hustle and bustle of Republic Street down below.
Breakfast was very good, decent range and well cooked.
Service was impeccable and friendly. Highly recommended.

Domus Zamittello is a splendid hotel formed out of an historic Maltese noble palace. It is perfectly situated in the heart of Valletta, with easy walking to most of the city, including the Cathedral, art galleries, museums, shops, buses, ferry,

The greatest attribute is the entire staff at this hotel because I found them to be always helpful, kind and cheerful.

I enjoyed every day of the 14 day holiday at such a marvellous hotel,

Each and every one of their staff all work extremely hard to make their guests stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

Malta is a wonderful place to visit and the Domus Zamittello is the perfect place to stay.

The hotel is charming and has been a family business for hundreds of years. The staff goes above and beyond excellence. I asked if they would get me a cab for the next morning’s 5 am flight. Not only did they, but also the chef made me a sandwich and the night clerk rolled my luggage several blocks to meet the cab

Excellent location, wonderful staff

Fantastic hotel, definitely worth the money for the service you get from the staff. Each morning at breakfast, the Manager, or a staff member assist you on ideas to do that day! Our room was upgraded to a room with 2 bathrooms & the bedroom upstairs (may not be good for people with mobility issues) TV had a good amount of English shows. Situated in the heart of Valletta. Bottle of wine was a nice touch - oh also rooftop terrace was great, especially if there’s a concert next door to eavesdrop on

Very charming 21 room boutique hotel in an historical building. The location just inside the City Gate was easy walking distance to all the sites. The room and amenities were up to date, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Special mention to Maria who not only called a taxi but walked us and our luggage in the rain to the meeting spot outside the pedestrian area. If you want a personalized, small hotel experience in the old part of the city, I highly recommend Domus Zamittello.

The hotel is perfectly situated for all of the main sightseeing attractions and outside you have access to a large range of shops to enjoy. When we arrived we were sat down, provided glasses of prosecco and upgraded to a premium suite. Beautiful room with lounge on lower floor and bedroom upstairs, only one point to add that it has no natural light but that did not bother us at all, added to our superb stay. Breakfast is a la carte with a continental breakfast and hot food, quality outstanding. Bus terminal is 3 mins walk and hotel hospitality is second to none. All staff were extremely helpful, knowledgeable and always attentive to your needs. Our stay flew by and thankyou to everyone for making it a special time.

Excellent hotel, but choose a quiet room.

The staff was excellent, the beds were extremely comfortable, and breakfast and coffee were delicious. The staff moved us from Room #13 because it looks down on a busy/noisy street and the window next to the bed is not soundproof.

This gem of a property is right at the start of lively Republic Street in beautiful Valletta. Not only is the property a stunning former palazzo, the staff are a delight! From the moment you walk in the door , you have a family to catch up with daily. First name basis, nonetheless. They truly care about their guests and go out if their way to make their guest’s stays memorable and enjoyable. Special thanks to Francesca, Maria, and Moul, truly enjoyed sharing stories and learning more about our different cultures. Please consider staying at this gem of a boutique hotel, it is a great value.

Always checked in with us and gave amazing tips on places to visit and eat. All his staff were equally engaged. I simply cannot recommend this place enough. Left yesterday and missing it already.

For our first wedding anniversary holiday to Malta we based ourselves at Domus Zamittello in Valletta, enticed by its central location and beautiful interior.

The staff were all extremely helpful. During our stay it was the Maltese Victory Day bank holiday, and our hotelier told us the best places to go to watch the public celebrations, which was a welcome touch. During breakfast, the hotel manager, Moul, comes round to check everything is fine with your stay and learn a bit about you and what brings you to Valletta. After mentioning one morning that we'd come for our anniversary, we were pleasantly surprised later that afternoon to find that bottle of bubbles had been left in our room for us to enjoy, which we took up to the hotel terrace and sipped alone as we looked out over the square. They also booked restaurants for us over the phone (we'd tried to book via email in advance, but par for the course these days, you don't get any reply), which made our time in Valletta much smoother as we weren't striving to get into well known places such as Nenu's. Their own restaurant recommendations like The Old Bakery were also great.

The hotel is situated just across the pedestrian bridge from the bus station, and since we were sightseeing every day it made going places easy.

We had the perfect time at Domus Zamittello. I encourage anyone who wants to stay in Valletta to consider a room here.

The building itself is beautiful and we were in a lovely suite full of history, character and charm. We were welcomed with a drink on arrival which was much appreciated. The staff were all extremely helpful throughout our stay and nothing was too much trouble. The toiletries were nice and the hairdryer in the room was much better than most (I needn't have taken my own)! The property is in an excellent location for all the historic sites, museums, shopping and nightlife, but as it is right on the main street and is the main route home for party-goers at night, I would suggest asking for a room at the back. Breakfast was OK, there was plenty on offer but nothing to really write home about. We didn't try the restaurant for dinner, but the staff were happy to make recommendations and reservations elsewhere. It is a very elegant hotel and I would definitely return for another special occasion.
