Francesca

A pleasant one-night stay right in the heart of Xewkija square. The room is tastefully decorated with an eye for detail and a high standard of cleanliness.

Upon our arrival we were greeted by the hostess who kindly showed us to our room where we found an array of snacks, water and a complimentary bottle of wine! In the morning, breakfast was very tasty and abundant. Would highly recommend.

Newly renovated room in the main square of the village. Breakfast included in the hotel across the street. Very friendly hostess. Flexible check-our was easily possible. We'd love to come back anytime!

Vivian

Clean and new room above a restaurant right outside St John’s church - free complementary wine and breakfast included. No self check in but was greeted by a staff member of the restaurant.

VILLAGE HISTORY
The village name is derived from the Maltese word "Xewk", meaning "thistles" or "thorns"

Xewkija, which is situated between Għajnsielem and the capital city, Victoria, is the oldest village in Gozo. It became the first parish outside Victoria on 27 November 1678. Xewkija is famous for its church, The Rotunda of Xewkija, which is dedicated to St. John the Baptist. It is the Seat of the Knights of the Order of St. John, and was built from Maltese stone by local masons and craftsmen. It is the largest in Gozo and its dome dominates the village. Its architect was Ġużè Damato.
