17th-century palazzo

panoramic view

Mediterranean cuisine

inside the walled city of Mdina

This 17th century palazzo is inextricably linked to the medieval city of Mdina, its walls forming part of the bastion walls that surround the former capital of Malta, with its remarkable baroque architecture. All rooms have been individually designed with romantic décor, original paintings, antique tapestries and furnishings. They are reminiscent of the noble origins of the Xara Palace and boast spectacular 180 degree panoramic views of Malta. Enjoy attentive service and gastronomic delights at the award-winning de Mondion restaurant, or dine at Trattoria A.D. 1530, situated on the charming Piazza.

Our commitments

The Xara Palace prides itself on its meticulous care of guests. But it doesn’t just reserve this people-centered approach for customers—the hotel also devotes considerable energies to raising funds for charities.
It supports local charity, Dar tal-Providenza, which offers accommodation that can provide a warm and family-oriented environment to people with disabilities who are unable to continue living at home. The hotel makes both direct donations and organizes an annual gala dinner for some 150 guests, held in the piazza directly in front of the palace. The event typically raises over €50,000. The Xara Palace also supports a smaller charity, Sponsor My Future. This raises money to enable underprivileged children in Ruiru, Kenya, to attend school—as well as supporting their families. The hotel creates a dedicated dish on its restaurant menu, which it uses both to raise funds for the charity and promote its work.

Romance in the Silent City

“Stroll hand in hand through the magical, "Silent City" and enjoy the charm and tranquility of the tiny streets and alleyways. The slower pace of life in Mdina is deliciously conducive to couples time. Sip a glass of Champagne whilst enjoying the panoramic views from the de Mondion Terraces, and the spectacular display of twinkling stars and fireworks!”

Small is beautiful

“Malta is a special fascinating place where many cultures have mixed together to give it its own original flavour…an exceptional historical and artistic heritage, many natural beauties and a warm people. A few days are enough to feel the heartbeat of the island and get into the footsteps of the earliest civilizations to the Knights of the Order of St John… A typical day can include breakfast overlooking Mdina’s medieval bastions, lunch in the vicinity of one of the oldest standing temples in the world, a siesta by one of the numerous beaches and dinner in the baroque capital, Valletta. A true example that small is beautiful.”
