The District Hotel launched in 2017 with stylish decor and a good location in a quieter part of Paceville. Rooms are decorated in relaxing neutral tones, and the lower-priced Comfort rooms are particularly good value. The Euro glam of reception is not necessarily replicated throughout the hotel, but as another new opening in the St Julian's area, competition is keeping prices keen.
