Chapel 5 Boutique Suites B&B

It's always a great pleasure to stay in this little slice of paradise. Everything is perfect, the setting, the warm welcome, and the kindness of Verena and Omar, as well as the staff, who are always attentive and smiling. The breakfasts are excellent and the bedding is high-quality, not to mention the spa, the peaceful atmosphere, and the décor. Thank you both 🙏🥰

Everything was wonderful, all were extremely helpful and kind. Every amenity available. It was like staying in a mini castle!

The warmth and welcoming attitude of the owner runs through the entire place as an atmospheric baseline. Contemporary style and attention to details wrapping around history. There are many places at Chapel 5 inviting you to say and rest and enjoy. Nice location within the old part of the town and close proximity to Mdina/Rabat.

What we liked The exceptionally warm and welcoming hospitality from Hazel, Eliana, Verana and Marie-Therese. Being welcomed late at night by Hazel after our delayed flight. The personal attention, including being shown around and having breakfast prepared for us. The kindness and flexibility of allowing us to keep our room on departure day because of our late flight. The authentic, rustic and shabby-chic character of the B&B. The quirky, individual feel of the property, with each room having its own character and theme. The relaxed, peaceful and almost zen-like atmosphere. The fact that it felt distinctive and personal rather than like a conventional, standardised hotel. Overall, we enjoyed the pleasant and memorable experience and particularly appreciated the people who looked after us.

What we didn't like The lack of a wardrobe or proper clothes storage, despite this being mentioned in the Sienna room description, meant we had to live out of our suitcases. The air-conditioning unit leaked and soaked some of our clothes when we were offered hangers underneath it. The many steps, different levels, spiral staircases and external stairs were difficult to negotiate and would be particularly challenging for older or less mobile guests. Some areas, including the courtyard plunge pools and certain stairways, lacked handrails where we felt they were needed. My wife was unable to use the room spa because getting into it involved awkward steps without a handrail. We felt the layout and open-access courtyard plunge-pool areas would require parents to supervise young children very closely. Better handrails and clearer signage would make the property easier and safer to navigate without losing its quirky character.
