Rosselli AX Privilege
A Baroque palazzo with high design
VERIFIED LUXURY
Classic Baroque architecture meets contemporary aesthetics at Rosselli - AX Privilege, a luxury boutique hotel in Malta’s capital, Valletta. Set in the former 17th-century home of a noble goldsmith — known by locals as Casa Rosselli-Massa — the hotel has reimagined its timeless beauty with opulent accents, like bold wallpaper, colored marble and warm wood furnishings. The posh modernity continues in each of the one-of-a-kind 25 rooms and suites. Culinary offerings are also a cut above. AX Privilege has three dining options, including the heralded fine-dining restaurant Under Grain (as in grain of the cloth, not the food), helmed by local celebrity chef Victor Borg. There are two other onsite eateries with unforgettable alfresco dining views along with a private room to share special moments or executive meetings. Upon arrival, you receive a glass of prosecco and a Rosselli - AX Privilege card with plenty of perks, from complimentary access to sister property AX The Palace’s spa to complimentary museum tickets and private shopping excursions. But there are plenty of in-hotel diversions, too, from the plunge pool to the rooftop bar.
