Step inside the AX The Saint John and you enjoy a modern, boutique hotel that blends traditional architecture with a modern finish and touches of inspiration. Step outside and you are immediately wandering one of Europe’s most intriguing cities.

AX The Saint John is a modern, luxurious boutique hotel, sympathetically fashioned from a former merchant’s residence and shop, with original features remaining. Step outside the front door to explore Europe’s smallest capital city, inside the hotel restaurant there is Cheeky Monkey, a gastropub where fun meets beer, cocktails and a bit of tipsy silliness. Fun, though, does not mean a lack of luxury or sophistication. The Saint John is one of 10 luxury Maltese properties selected to be part of the renowned Forbes Luxury Star Awards 2023 and, as with all hotels from the acclaimed AX group, is renowned for unmatched levels of service. The Saint John is vibrant, exciting but also relaxing. It is perfect for anyone keen to explore Valetta and all that the wonderful island of Malta has to offer.
