Just south of Sicily, Malta is a small archipelago of three islands but packs in prehistoric temples, a thriving capital and turquoise waters flowing onto white-sand beaches. Located on Malta Island, the ancient capital city of Valletta is described by UNESCO as ‘one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world’. Like a fine wine, the city has improved with age; its Roman Catholic cathedral flanked by an array of museums, shopping areas and 16th-century mansions converted into bars and restaurants. Other must-see attractions include the Hypogeum – a prehistoric burial site unearthed in 1902 – and the Megalithic temples which can be observed on both Malta and Gozo island. Malta’s rural beauty makes it perfect for all sorts of activities, such as hiking along the Gozo coast, sailing past secluded caves or diving amongst shipwrecks. If you’d rather ride a wave than dive below one, then numerous surfing spots are available, including Palm Beach, St. Thomas and Ghallis on the north shores of Malta. Comino is Malta’s smallest island but still worth a visit by any means. Its main draw is the Blue Lagoon – a huge pool of crystal-clear water on the uninhabited islet of Cominotto. A number of hotels, guests houses and apartments are available, with options provided on each of the three islands.

Everything was perfect. Due to a delayed flight we only arrived after 1am and the staff were fantastic in not only accommodating our late arrival but also offered us drinks and amazing banana cake!
Room was perfect, pool area is amazing. Great little spot!

Guest review
Location is very good, if you want to visit many places. Rooms are beautiful and comfortable. But the personnel shines the most. I travel a lot, but this was the first time, when I was able to talk so much with the hotel owners about many interesting topics. And delicious fresh juice for breakfast :)

Located in Rabat, 8.5 km from Hagar Qim, Verdala Wellness Hotel AX Privilege - Adults Only provides accommodation with a terrace, private parking, a restaurant and a bar.
Guest review
We had a fantastic stay at AX Hotel in Rabat, Malta. The healthy breakfast was amazing, with lots of fresh options that set us up perfectly for the day. The gym and wellness area were a big plus, modern and well-equipped. What really stood out was the super friendly staff who made us feel welcome throughout our stay.
The location is excellent – just a short walk to the Medina – and the hotel even provided us with free bicycles, which we used for a memorable trip to the cliffs. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for comfort, great service, and a perfect base to explore Malta.

It was located perfectly - few minutes’ walk to Valleta, buses and ferries, without being too close to the touristy areas. The room was excellent, and the bathroom was very spacious. The team at the hotel was extremely helpful and attentive. And the rooftop is a treat :)

The Capital Boutique Hotel features a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, shared lounge, a terrace and bar in Valletta.
Guest review
A small boutique hotel with about 18 rooms located in the center of Valletta. We were surprised by the kindness and professionalism of all the staff, starting from the very welcome of the taxi driver at the airport who was extremely kind and friendly, showed us and explained the whole city during the ride. Even though we arrived before the official check-in time, the room was ready.
Every day the housekeeping did an excellent job. Since the water is not drinkable, they regularly leave a bottle of water, it is equipped with tea, coffee, a hairdryer, an iron etc. The breakfast was varied and of good quality, if you want eggs, they cook them as you order so you will never get cold scrambled eggs.
The reception staff is very friendly and ready to help at any time of the day or night. The location of the hotel is in the very center of Valletta, close to the main street and all attractions.
We are very pleased with the service and if we ever return to Malta, we will definitely stay at this hotel again!!
