From the point of booking our stay at Casa Rocca Piccola B&B, everything was top notch. The communication received from Marta upon booking was greatly appreciated with a document arriving listing places to visit, restaurants to eat at as well as general information about our stay. Prior to arrival I had contacted Marta requesting information about transport from the airport into Valletta & again the communication was excellent. As we arrived on a Public Holiday, we received clear instructions as to what to do seeing it was not a normal working day. We were delighted to be met by Marchioness de Piro & shown to our room. We just loved the Elephant Room – it was a very comfortable 4 night stay. Breakfast in the garden was a lovely setting each morning, particularly when joined by Kiku the beautiful Macaw. The ladies who looked after us were all very friendly & could not do enough for us. It is fair to say that one of our biggest highlights of our trip to Valletta was actually staying at the Casa Rocca Piccola B&B. Being able to stay in a piece of Valletta history was fantastic & the private tour with Marquis de Piro was just outstanding. Not only is the Marquis a delightful person, but his knowledge & passion for this wonderful palace & the history of his family – it was truly a memorable experience. Thank you to all at Casa Rocca Piccola, but especially the de Piro family for allowing visitors to Valletta to experience this wonderful palace & family. PS. The Sicilian Restaurant, La Giara, that is in the palace building is also excellent!

We liked eveything in this property. It is probably the most special place we have ever stayed. The property itself is a must-see place. The staff is very friendly and helpful, amazing. If you stay overnight at this place the owner will give you a private free tour (the tour will take place three times in a week) in this house and shows you hidden gems which are not shown to regular visitors. As part of the tour you can also visit the bomb shelter under the house. And car enthusiasts also have something exciting historical to see in this house. The breakfast is just wonderful. You can enjoy it in this wonderful little garden, where a parrot and two turtles keep you company. WiFi connection was also very fast and good at this place.

I would go back there any time!

What a marvelous and special place! I am so happy to have booked Casa Rocca Piccola. This did not feel like a hotel but felt as if we were cherished guests of royalty in their palace. The rooms are authentic and bright, airy and beautifully decorated. The house itself is like staying in a museum. The location is excellent; Right in the heart of charming Valetta but also on a quiet side street where I experienced no noise at night. But, the best part about this place is the tour. The Marquis himself met us after breakfast and gave us a tour of his home which will be in my memories forever as one of the most unique and cherished experiences of my life. The Marquis is just as charming as you hope nobility will be and as he showed us around his home he gave us the history full of family antidotes and special stories giving us a glimpse into an extraordinary life and an insight to history from such a personal point of view. I truly feel these stories can not be told in this way for much longer as the world changes. Do not miss your chance at this special experience. The morning was worth flying halfway across the world!

utterly fabulous room - spacious and wonderfully decorated. the B&B is in a great location in the heart of Valletta and easy to get to the food hall or upmarket restaurants. The Mediterranean breakfast was simple but lovely. the guided tour by the owner of the property was fascinating.

not really for the property but Valletta is much more expensive than the rest of the island. However, being in the middle of everything was really nice - a short walk to bars and live music and sea views. If you want to sit out you share the garden with day visitors - not an issue for us.

The breakfast was excellent, a large choice, the fruit was delicious, the orange cake exceptional, plenty to suit everyone's tastes. Sitting in the beautiful garden was delightful. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The private tour of the house was fascinating. The fabulous bedroom (The Elephant Room) was lovely, the beautiful bed was very comfortable, there was plenty of hot water and lots to look at and admire in the room. I am so glad I chose to stay in the Casa Rocca Piccola, the equivalent of staying in an English stately home. I loved it and would definitely stay again. Just sorry to leave!

There was nothing I did not like - only leaving at the end of my stay!

Such an amazing and unique experience staying at the Casa Rocca Piccola! There are only 5 rooms and the B&B is part of the historic Villa from the 1500's. The guests stay on a separate floor and the Villa itself is in great shape and is stunning. The rooms are spacious and fitted out in an eclectic style that fits well with the overall ambiance. Bed was comfortable and the room was clean. Bathroom worked well, generous shower and again, very clean. Breakfast is in a lovely outdoor courtyard and had several options. For guests of the B&B there was a personal tour by the Marquis himself, which was outstanding and a highlight of our stay. Although located on the main road, the B&B was away from the most touristed area of town and was nice and quiet at night.

Some additional hot food or additional egg options for breakfast would be nice, but this is a minor observation.

We loved everything at this place! It is a unique place to stay in and we really enjoyed staying there. We arrived at the morning and recived coffee with homemade cookies and than did the tour at casa Rocca Piccola which was very intetesting and special. We stayed at the elephent room that was big and comfortable and we liked it. 5 minutes from the center of Valleta and very close to all the torisem places. The staff was very kind, especially Belen that helped us a lot. A good worth to the money!

We liked everything.

Who can complain about sleeping in an authentic palazzo? Breakfast al fresco in a courtyard serenaded by the resident parrot. Wonderful accommodations, lovely staff, perfect location for a walk of the entire city. Bonus: a tour of the palazzo and bomb shelter(just below the building) peppered with mesmerizing history and personal experiences by the Marquis himself! The attached Sicilian restaurant is a must!

I wish we could have stayed longer.

Continental breakfast with a very good range of different things. Eating in the courtyard every morning was a pleasure, and always nice to see Kiku the macaw while there. Great location - about 5 mins walk from the busy centre of Valletta so you get convenience of being close to everything (including bus station where it's cheap and easy to get anywhere on the island), but without having to deal with the noise of the shops & eateries in Republic St and Merchant St. Rooms are always quiet and comfortable with great aircon. Bathroom was very clean and roll top bath was very luxurious. The personal tour of the house by the Marquis, Nicholas, was the highlight of the stay. Friendly and always willing to answer questions, his passion and pride for both the building itself and the family heritage was infectious. For lovers of history, this alone would be worth the price of admission.

A beautiful building in the center of the city. The host even picked us up at the car park because we arrived late at night. Breakfast was fine, the room was very clean and cleaned daily.

Only detail maybe was the friendly man at breakfast who was a bit clumsy and not so good with the coffee machine (the coffee tasted much better when the lady made it). But the smiles and apologies made up for that so the fact that this is the only thing i can think of to mention says a lot about this great place.
