The crown jewel in the center of Valletta, The Phoenicia stands proud in the heart of the city. Dating back to the 20th-century it has been a firm favorite with distinguished icons and British royalty, dancing in the Grand Ballroom on many occasions since its opening. Steeped in history it is Malta’s most iconic hotel and now a luxury retreat for modern times.
 
Just steps from the center of Valletta, however, you will be a world away from the hustle and bustle of the city as you step into a calm oasis that envelops you as you enter the large welcoming lobby with its grandeur and decadent décor. The spacious Palm Court lounge and bar is the epicenter of the hotel with beautiful 1930s décor and doors, leading to the Phoenix Restaurant with its expansive alfresco terraces overlooking the acres of tranquil landscaped gardens and historic bastions. A generous menu offers award winning meals using local seasonal produce with strong Mediterranean flavors and specialities.
  
Through the gardens you will arrive at the chic infinity pool with large sun lounger terrace and views over the Marsamxett Harbor surrounded by the bastion walls of Valletta. In the summer months the resident DJ plays chilled beats to relax, taking it up a level in the balmy evenings as you dance the night away. Bottomless brunches can also be enjoyed here, as well as time spent in the exceptional spa. With 132 rooms and suites, there are a range of categories and views to choose from. The rooms are all light and bright with a fresh blue and white décor, uplifting colors and fabrics, creating a reflective and relaxing space to be. For more space opt for the suites with magnificent views over the city, gardens and harbor, each come with a relaxing sitting room, with some offering interconnecting options for families.
