The Xara Collection:
Forming part of the prestigious Relais & Chateaux, The Xara Palace is a unique Boutique Hotel hidden away in the heart of the Medieval fortified City, of Mdina, and is a definition of Architectural Style and Culture. 
Perched on centuries-old bastions, and surrounded by stunning baroque architecture, The Xara Palace Relais & Châteaux is a truly unique establishment offering unparalleled views of the beautiful Maltese countryside, full of charm and character, with its luxurious accommodation and award-winning haute cuisine, The Xara Palace Relais & Châteaux incorporated their exclusive, Michelin Star restaurant, the de Mondion, into the bastion walls – with breathtaking views of the island. 
It also operates a causal restaurant, Trattoria AD 1530 in the Piazza, in the front of the hotel, offering casual dining in a picturesque setting as well as the Xara Lodge, the only purpose-built multi-functional venue of its kind on the Maltese Islands.
 Whether our guests are after a honeymoon, a wedding, a cultural stay, or simply an exclusive getaway, The Xara Palace has it all. Our promise to our guests centres on impeccable attention to detail – from the décor to the serene, unhurried pace of life at The Xara Palace Hotel or any of our venues, through every facet of our service – all setting the scene for nothing less than an exquisitely unforgettable experience in Malta.
