We flew right from Canada to Malta - had booked service through the hotel to get us from Airport to Ferry and from Ferry to hotel. Big mess up - which was probably not the hotels fault but they took responsibility and made sure that we made it safe and sound. The breakfast is great, the location is fabulous, and if you are just too tired to go out you can get a meal sent up from the restaurant in the mall below and eat with a view of the Citadel. I would really recommend that people spend the little bit extra to get the balcony. We had a lovely view of the garden and it was nice to sit out and enjoy the birds.

Every time when we are going to travel with our 15 month old twins it is challenging. It is very difficult to find right place which will fit all your requirements and The Duke Hotel is perfect match for our family.
We have been staying here already two times and for sure it will not be last.
The rooms are very spacious great designed and brand new.
The most important the bedrooms are very very quiet. The beds are super comfortable. We had nice balcony with garden view. It is perfect place to enjoy some coffee or tea.
The staff are very friendly and very helpful.
Attention to small details: cribs for kids as promised and even small baby bath with toys and balloons for boys.
Very good selection of food for breakfast. It is perfectly combined with local, traditional products (Maltese pastizzi, sun dried tomatoes, olives, capers) and some usual food like scrambled eggs, sausages, cheese and different healthy oat, yogurts etc.
For sure it is one of the best hotels in Gozo.
