It was our first time in this chic hotel. We were surprised with it's amenities, luxurious and friendly and well trained staff. Ample food during the Buffett Breakfast with local specialities daily. Superb centrally located in the heart of the Island of Gozo on the Maltese Archipelago, situated above a very modern shopping mall including a large well stocked Supermarket. Last but not the least the owners Mr. & Mrs. Galea make your stay more welcome as they are personally around speaking to their residents to see if all is okay which make you feel extra welcome. We travel and stay in various different hotels worldwide and even locally too but this is one of the best Hotel experience beyond anyone's expectations. Thanks Joe & Sharon.

The experience stay in this hotel is beyond my expectation! Good location right in the center. The supermarket just downstairs. It has very spacious and clean room with VERY comfortable pillows and bedding, which is much more comfortable than most European hotels. I booked 2 nights but finally stayed 4 nights there. The breakfast is different every day. Delicious and fresh. You can enjoy the amazing castle view from the dinning room. The staffs are very nice and patient. I???ve been travelled two months in Europe this time. This is the BEST hotel I stayed so far!!!

This was the best hotel experience I've ever had. Everything about the Duke is perfect! The room and property is beautiful and immaculate. The service is top notch with every detail covered. The breakfast is beyond expectations for a hotel.
Splurge on the Presidential Suite. Everything is perfect about the suite. The suite is the perfect relaxing getaway for a couple. The staff is attentive but invisible. Room service and the mini bar are reasonably priced. You must order breakfast in, for a private treat. One pleasant surprise that isn't really mentioned on the website is that you have a good view of the sea as well from the Presidential Suite.
As an example of the kindness of the staff, on our last day I received a call within an hour of check out. I thought the staff was giving us a reminder of check out time. No! They were concerned that we hadn't came to breakfast or requested breakfast that day. Since checkout was after breakfast time, I had accepted we had missed out. Over the phone they took our breakfast request and when we went down to the dining area they served us breakfast even though it was after hours. A truly remarkable experience!
This hotel and Gozo are truly a gem! If you're traveling to Malta and considering accommodations, please give this hotel and Gozo a try. Gozo is a beautiful island which is quiet and relaxing. The people are kind and happy to see tourists. Find Ronnie's Taxi service and take his private tour of the island. The Duke is reason enough to fly across the world, take a taxi across Malta and ferry to Gozo! You won't regret it!

The hotel is situated on the top floors of a shopping centre with a big supermarket, which means you can do food shopping without having to step out! You are even asked in advance whether you would prefer an empty minibar fridge so that you could store your own provisions there. Great views from the breakfast room. Especially liked the tapas they serve, there is also a good selection of fresh fruit. Rooms are large and impeccably clean. Very effective heating, which makes a big difference in winter. Large, comfortable beds with two blankets 😊. Only the reading lamps could be higher. The staff were very friendly and always at our service. Would return on any future trip to Gozo!
