Palazzo Castagna: Boutique Hotel in Malta

It is with great pleasure that we present the Palazzo Castagna project, conceived in 2019 by Biancoarancio, who took care of the Interior design, from concept to workshop drawings, and realized in a masterful way by the Evolve by RS Group team.
The historic building in Ghaxaq, Malta, dates back to 1756, has been transformed into a Boutique Hotel. During the renovation, some characteristic elements were maintained, such as the English balcony and the internal frescoes. Outside, the garden has been resized to obtain three floors of deluxe and superior rooms, while a swimming pool and a cocktail bar with solarium have been built on the roof.

The building, dates back to 1756, was built by Angelo Castagna, mayor of Ghaxaq district, and was a private residence of his family till 1930. The existence of a previous building, dating back to the
Templar Knights time, is witnessed by a stone still visible on the facade on the second floor.
A conservative restoration will mantain the main part of the building as it is, in order to preserve the original maltese stone structure and some characteristic elements, such as the british bow window and the interior frescos. This area will host all the common facilities of the hotel (restaurant, reception, coffee shop). The garden, instead, will be reduced to host 3 floors of deluxe and superior bedrooms. On the roof there will be a pool and a cocktail bar with a solarium.
