Dining

Start your morning with a fresh breakfast served in the hotel’s stylish dining area, where you can enjoy local pastries and hot options to fuel your day of sightseeing. While the hotel focuses on Bed and Breakfast, you are steps away from Valletta’s vibrant culinary scene. Dine just steps from the refreshing sea breeze at the nearby Grand Harbour, where local bistros serve fresh seafood and traditional Maltese rabbit in a chic setting for tranquil relaxation.

Meal times are indicative and may be subject to change depending on the season.

Pools and Spa

While the hotel’s historic structure means there is no swimming pool on-site, you can find quiet moments of relaxation on the rooftop terrace, offering panoramic views across the city’s iconic domes and spires. It is the perfect spot for sunset city views with a refreshing drink. Please note that the use of any spa treatments or wellness services provided by external partners through the hotel may be subject to additional charges.

Beach

The hotel is located in the heart of the city, approximately a 15-minute walk from the rocky swimming spots at the Valletta waterfront, where locals love to take a dip in the clear blue water. For sandy shores, a 20-minute drive or a ferry and bus journey will take you to the popular beaches of Sliema or St. George’s Bay. Please note that sun loungers and umbrellas at public beaches are typically available at an extra charge.

Sport and Entertainment

The real entertainment lies just outside your door in the historic streets of Valletta. Spend your evenings soaking up the sophisticated atmosphere of nearby jazz clubs and wine bars or enjoy a stroll along the city’s ancient bastions. The hotel offers a quiet, refined retreat for couples and friends looking for a sophisticated base after a day of exploring local museums, galleries, and the ornate St. John's Co-Cathedral.
