XVI Suites

This adults only boutique hotel is named after the 16 suites it houses, as well as the Louis XVI style, of which it is reminiscent. Situated in Bahar Ic-Caghaq, just north of St.Julians, the property is close to the nice coastal road of white rocks. A beautifully preserved classic facade of a “villeggiatura”; a villa by the sea for rest & recreation, conceals a stylish interior that includes feature elements that echo the Louis XVI style with a very postmodern twist. The hotel is a very artistic and chic take on the opulent and romantic French-Italian neo-classic style and is set over two floors.
