AX The Saint John Boutique embraces Malta’s history. It resides in a 17th-century townhouse, which was once a merchant’s home and shop, and is also close to downtown Valletta, the island country’s capital city and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The 21 rooms at this Malta hotel perfectly combine luxury and style as well a bit of history with black-and-white photos of Valletta’s past and old-fashioned Bakelite-style telephones with push buttons. Next door to AX The Saint John is the hotel’s Cheeky Monkey Gastropub, open daily for breakfast, lunch, dinner and cocktails. Menu highlights include smoked salmon and Monkey Nibbles — gourmet mini-burgers.
