🏰 Historic townhouse | 🌊 Rooftop plunge pool | 💆 Subterranean spa | 📍 Prime Valletta location | 🥐 Courtyard breakfast


Overview

Step into the charm of Malta's capital at Palazzo Consiglia, a 4-star boutique hotel housed in a meticulously restored traditional Maltese townhouse. Located just a short walk from the scenic Lower Barrakka Gardens, this elegant property effortlessly blends rich local history with modern luxury. It offers a chic setting for tranquil relaxation, where you can soak up the Mediterranean sun on the roof terrace while admiring sweeping views of historic Valletta's rooftops.


Rooms

  • Air-conditioned interiors featuring bespoke design themes
  • En-suite bathrooms with walk-in showers and premium toiletries
  • Flat-screen TVs and complimentary Wi-Fi connections
  • Minibars and tea or coffee making facilities
  • Select rooms feature a traditional closed Maltese timber balcony known as a gallarija

Dining

Start your mornings with a delightful breakfast served in a charming central courtyard or within the historic cellar. Choose a Bed and Breakfast stay to enjoy freshly prepared morning pastries, cold cuts, and hot options, all accompanied by the inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee. For lunch and dinner, you will find yourself completely surrounded by Valletta's vibrant culinary scene, with fantastic local restaurants and wine bars just a few minutes' walk away.


Pools and Spa

Unwind on the rooftop terrace, featuring a refreshing plunge pool and a sunbathing deck with spectacular views over the city. For a truly unique experience, head down to The Cantina, a subterranean wellness area built directly into the building's historic vaulted cellars. Here you will find a heated indoor pool and a peaceful atmosphere. Please note that the use of the Spa centre, including massages, treatments, sauna, and steam room, may be subject to additional charges.


Beach

While situated in a historic city centre rather than on a sandy coastline, the hotel is approx. a 15-minute walk from the rocky shores of St. Elmo Bay, perfect for a quick dip in the sea. For expansive sandy beaches, you can take a scenic bus ride or drive to the northern coast of the island.


Sport and Entertainment

Palazzo Consiglia offers a peaceful, laid-back atmosphere, serving as an ideal and comfortable base after a long day of sightseeing. Spend your evenings mingling on the rooftop lounge or exploring the nearby cultural landmarks, museums, and lively harbour promenades of Valletta.


Family Amenities

Families looking to explore the capital will find the hotel’s central location highly convenient. The surrounding area makes it incredibly easy to take children on walking tours through the historic streets and interactive museums of the capital, returning to the comfort of your room after a day of discovery.

“Another perfect visit”

We have just had our third visit to this lovely hotel. This beautiful traditional Palazzo is just a couple of streets from the centre of Valletta but is peaceful. Each room is beautifully deocorated in a unique way and the beds are super comfy. A coffee machine, chilled water and fluffy robes and towels feel very luxurious. We really enjoyed some R&R at the rooftop pool and in the unique spa, the latter of which you book for a private hour each day. Breakfast is amazing- there is a very well stocked buffet selection, including maltese specialties, and a fantastic selection of cooked options too. The hotel is immaculately clean and well kept. The staff here are lovely and really look after you well with a genuinely warm welcome and attention to detail. They are the best asset of the hotel and one of the main reasons we keep coming back. It's like our little haven of peace and loveliness where we can relax properly. 5 stars is not enough. Thank you! We will be back!

“Excellent Boutique Hotel in Valletta”

Excellent Boutique Hotel ideally situated for the centre of Valletta. This is our second time staying at this hotel, it is small but perfectly formed (13 rooms). The staff could not be more helpful. Each room has a different but unique character, it has a small rooftop pool and a Spa downstairs.

“Just Charming”

A few days spent in this charming hotel was a real refresher. Lovely individually themed rooms (We stayed in Mediterranea) make this place pretty unique. The staff were very friendly and attentive and really helped to make our stay so enjoyable. Its within 5 mins walk of pretty much everything you want to see and do in Valetta. Breakfast was excellent either from the a la carte or the buffet. On the roof there are loungers and a small pool if you need to relax even more Underground was a spa area with Steam Room, Sauna and Hot tub (Massive) And its lovely and quiet so sleep in those huge comfy beds was really good

“Excellent value and superb hotel”

This is a great hotel with great personal service from all the staff. They’re super helpful with showing you where to go and arranging transport. The suites are beautifully appointed and the bottomless mini-bar (in the rate I booked), was very nice. The little rooftop pool is great for relaxation in the afternoon. Breakfast is a buffet but it’s fresh and has a good selection. It’s very peaceful here and I would thoroughly recommend it.
