Gozo, being smaller, quieter, more agricultural, and less populated than Malta, is the ideal place for relaxing, walking and enjoying the best Mediterranean traditions. Why not get away from it all before or after the workshop at the Grand Hotel, Mgarr? This is a stones throw from where the ferry arrives from Malta (see Gozo Channel Co. for details) with good bus connections to other parts of the island. The harbour view rooms are very spacious and have unusually large terraces with a wonderful view overlooking the Channel between the two islands. Basic rates are Euro 92 (double) and Euro 75 (single) per night, bed and breakfast. Discounted rates (15% less) available for stays of 3 days or more. Please reserve on booking form.
