The best accommodations Valletta

If you had the chance to stay in this hotel, you shouldn't recognize it any more. Closed for more than a year, it opened its doors on May 1, 2017 with a completely renovated décor. The most prestigious hotel in Malta is still located in a colonial building surrounded by large gardens and dominates two ports. And its renovation preserved the architecture, charm and atmosphere of the middle of the twentieth century, which had earned him the stay of all the international stars on the island, including the Queen of England. Near the walls of the old town, this five star offers small, but beautifully equipped rooms, all with magnificent views. The high quality services will certainly be appreciated by the beauty of its gardens and the magnificent swimming pool with stunning views of the harbor. More if needed, its gourmet restaurant, the Phoenix, with refined décor and gastronomy studied.

This luxurious boutique-style B&B is often fully booked! We discovered it by chance, discreetly tucked away in a quiet, pleasant alleyway in Valletta, unaware of the buzz it was already creating on the web among travelers looking for arty, contemporary addresses. From the Duplex, we also discovered the most beautiful view of the city of the Knights of the Order of St. John, overlooking the port, the sea and the old town, with a contrast as striking as it is fascinating between the B&B's clean lines and the authentic, historic character of the capital. One floor up, the roof, with a terrace where you can have breakfast in the soft light of dawn, or enjoy the aperitif graciously served by the team at sunset. Daniel at reception will give you the best tips and anecdotes about Malta. We loved the service and the high standard of the rooms, in harmony with this heavenly setting.

A completely renovated and equipped apartment in an ancient traditional house in Valletta.

The result: a unique style! At the crossroads of Maltese Baroque and design, it was decorated by two talented contemporary artists, Brian Grech and Stephen Azzopardi, who are also the owners of the sites. You'll be amazed by the quality of the paintings and the furniture of the apartment. There is no shortage of comfort: a large bedroom, a living room, a separate kitchen and a bathroom with bathtub. Excellent value for money for a non-standard location. Book in advance.

The Grand Hotel Excelsior Malta is a 5-star hotel located on the Great Siege Road in Floriana, Malta. This upscale establishment offers breathtaking views of Marsamxett harbor and Fort Manoel. Elegant rooms are equipped with free Wi-Fi access, flat-screen TVs, minibars and tea and coffee making facilities. Some rooms also offer a sitting area and a view of the port. Suites feature a separate living area. Parking and shuttle service to the city center are free of charge. The hotel also offers three restaurants, three bars, an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, a private beach, a gym, a spa and a private marina. Breakfast is available at an additional cost.

You will have very nice views of the harbour and the forts that defended the entrance from the sixth floor. The comfort of the rooms is basic, but offers good value for money. Ask to choose your room if you don't book at the last minute because their size is very variable, with or without terrace, for the same price. Restaurant and lounge bar with a superb view complete the offer and allow you to enjoy good Mediterranean cuisine in a very cosy setting. A good address in a quiet and typical area of Valletta.

Here's a unique accommodation proposal. A total of three suites in a 400-year-old house. The premises belong to two artists. They have completely redecorated the house to create "art apartments", which are fully equipped and offer every comfort. You'll also be well placed to enjoy the gardens of Upper Barracca. Please note, however, that you'll need to book well in advance in order to select the dates of your stay.

Just a stone's throw from the port, the hotel is housed in an attractive freestone residence that once belonged to the Order of Saint John. Completely renovated in 2018, it offers 63 comfortable rooms (TV, telephone, air conditioning), arranged on several levels. Beautifully appointed with stylish furnishings, some (9) overlook the sea. If you're lucky, you may even opt for the 401, which boasts a lovely view, even from the bathroom. You'll also appreciate the welcoming lobby, the intimate ambience of the restaurant and the freshness of the small private swimming pool on the terrace with its beautiful views over the city. Finally, the new lounge bar is sure to liven up your evenings. Very welcoming staff. A good address.

Housed in a historic building, the Grand Harbour Hotel is also conveniently located near the Upper Barraca Gardens. It offers 30 rooms on 7 floors, accessible by lift. All of the rooms have been renovated and are en suite and decorated in the style of the building. Most of the rooms have a balcony overlooking the large port and the Three Cities. The same beautiful view can be enjoyed from the hotel's rooftop terrace.

Four modern, cosy and very comfortable apartments in the heart of Valletta, a stone's throw from Upper Baracca Gardens and with a lovely view of Grand Harbour for the first 3. The^4th has no view. We fell in love with apartment^{no. 1} , as much for its view from the famous Maltese balconies as for the atmosphere that emanates from every inch of its colorful walls. The apartments are fully equipped: kitchenette, fridge, LCD screen, Internet connection, bath... Michael Mercieca, the owner, speaks good French and will give you lots of tips for visiting Malta. The welcome is excellent and the premises are pampered by its managers as if they lived there. Michael can pick you up from the airport if you let him know a few days before your arrival. Book two to three months in advance if you want to stay during the summer.

Located in the heart of Valletta, this complex comprises a duplex, a maisonette, a penthouse and two apartments. We like everything about it: the decor, since it has been completely renovated by a renowned architect, the location, which combines proximity and calm, and the quality of the furniture and bedding. Bathrooms and kitchens are equipped to the highest standards. Plus: breathtaking views. If your budget allows, opt for the rooftop penthouse with its incredible terrace and bubble bath.

A privileged location a few hundred meters from the Muza and the Upper Barraca gardens where you can go jogging in the morning before the crowd arrives, this is the first asset of this hotel. The second being to be installed in a very beautiful old house which has kept all its charm of yesteryear, and which we will appreciate from the reception by admiring the Maltese clock with the bucolic decoration which surmounts it. Central district means animation. Also, to choose between the 38 rooms with similar and undeniable comfort, you will need to know if you have a very light sleep. Those overlooking the central patio sometimes make a wind tunnel noise in the middle of summer due to the air conditioning. If you can book in advance, we recommend rooms with bow windows overlooking the square: 25 in the centre and 12 and 14 on each side. The icing on the cake and morning pleasure: have breakfast on the panoramic terrace on the hotel's roof, with beautiful views of the three cities. Welcoming attentive, precise and also in French.

In the very central and yet quiet St Christopher Street, this 300-year-old palace was beautifully restored in 2017 to make it attractive and easy to use to the modern traveler. Here you will find a hotel out of time, mixing the old features of its building with a modern decoration with all the comfort a palace can offer. In the rooms decorated with vintage furniture, confectionery platters, fridge bar, plug in for telephone, air conditioner, fan, safe, WLAN, cable TV… every detail has been carefully thought of, and decoration mixed colors, contemporary design and baroque elements. A pleasant and colorful patio with tables invites you to enjoy a good breakfast in the open air, scarcity in La Valette. Unless the fireplace takes your attention more? The convivial and original spirit reigns here and you can only feel at home there. This is what you can expect for a deluxe room, a penthouse or their wonderful duplex on 2 floors with private secure entrance, equipped kitchen and living room. The ideal alternative for travelers who want privacy while having space.

In the heart of the city, above the Grand Port. A very basic family pension. Bathrooms and toilets are outside the rooms. Nice view of some of the rooms on the harbour. The price is the same and therefore you have every interest in asking them.

A 1949 Bentley will greet you once you enter and put you right in the mood. After the majestic hall, you will find four rooms and a suite, all decorated differently and you will plunge back in time. You will have the opportunity to stay in the heart of the museum of the same name. Breakfast is served in the museum garden around the fountain, under the gaze of the parrot, the real star of the place. Please note that the visit to the Casa Rocca Piccola Museum is included in the room rate.

AX The Saint John opened in 2018 with the objective of reconciling the history of a 17th century building, successively a boutique and a merchant store, with the aspirations of a 21st century urban traveller. The result is a charming hotel that combines lifestyle, vintage touch style and new technologies. Spread around a central patio that functions like a skylight, the nineteen rooms have a contemporary style that evokes the comfort of one's own home. Professionals will appreciate two fully equipped conference rooms and gourmets will appreciate the Cheeky Monkey Gastropub, which will delight burger lovers in particular. And outside, you can enjoy all the excitement of Merchants Street.

Located just a stone's throw from Grand Harbor and the Upper Barraca Gardens, this boutique hotel, opened in November 2015, was part of the wave of establishments preparing the year of culture in 2018, with the taste of ancient buildings. As a result, the eight rooms renovated by a Maltese of origin, Matthew, were decorated with great care: ground marble for rooms and bathrooms, comfortable bedding, WLAN, TV and fully equipped bar. For families who wish to stay in total comfort, you can only advise the Classic Maltese suite to the two king-size beds and multi-colored tiles illuminating the entrance of the room. The richest can choose the Grand Harbor view if they choose "the Grand Habour Sky Villa".

Opened in 2010, it is located above the Luciano restaurant, in the centre of Valletta. Some of the rooms have a beautiful view of the co-cathedral. Comfortable and well-equipped rooms (minibar, air conditioning, LCD TV...), accessible by lift, and a slightly old but pleasant decoration. If you don't mind the animation, choose the rooms overlooking the main street, otherwise prefer the parallel street. It is often taken by storm from the month of April, so booking in advance is preferable.

Set in a Victorian house from the 1830s, this trendy boutique hotel located near the Manoel Theatre will seduce lovers of old stone and an arty and intimate atmosphere, each room overlooking an inner courtyard where you can't hear a cat. The Ellul brothers entrusted its transformation to architect Chris Briffa, who designed each of the nine suites in elegant black white and anthracite tones. On the floor, graphic mosaics, on the walls, an exhibition of paintings by the contemporary Maltese artist Mallia, which makes us rediscover Valletta in flashy tones. Some have high ceilings, characterful furniture and luxurious bathrooms with pretty basins and superb free-standing baths. The rooms on the top floor are more futuristic, with raw concrete walls and contemporary furniture with sleek lines, each with a terrace overlooking the city. A warm welcome from the team, attentive to the requirements of its customers. A very popular establishment.

Smart advice: do not hesitate to check the availability of rooms day by day and book your stay in several suites. The staff will take care of everything to make you travel between floors without you noticing!

Opened in May 2019, this very beautiful hotel is set in the Palazzo Merkanti, a magnificent 17th century Baroque palace whose first owner was Grand Master Pietro Roselli, a wealthy silversmith, Maltese philanthropist and member of the Order of the Knights of Malta. If the beauty of its structure has been respected, its interior decoration has been applied to magnify it with delicacy and lightness. Around the central courtyard, the hotel is organised into six collections of rooms, 25 in total, each offering a specific universe: a calm and serene atmosphere for the Wellbeing collection, floral motifs from the secret gardens of La Valette for the Garden collection, Maltese soil for the Terrazzo collection, a harmonious dialogue between the old and the modern for the Green collection, an evocation of a contemporary palace for the Duplex collection or a subtle interpretation of materials for the Designer Suite collection. A particularly attentive and totally personalized service contributes to the feeling of well-being and serenity emanating from the whole.
