Local attractions
The hotel is located inside the fortified Capital City of Valletta which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Around the city one finds numerous palaces, auberges, squares, St. John's Co-Cathedral and other prominent buildings and museums dating back to the 16th Century. Being a natural harbour, Valletta has multiple sea access and therefore Sliema or the Three Cities can be accessed by sea via a ferry shuttle service at a minimal charge. Numerous restaurants including two one-Michelin star restaurants are also within walking distance of the hotel.
